What We Check During a Pipe Inspection

Joseph K.

Regular sewer pipe inspection and maintenance are essential to prolonging the life of your home’s plumbing system. They help detect any underlying issues before they spin out of control. They also allow you to determine if you need trenchless pipe lining in Burbank, CA , soon.

If you need professional sewer inspection services, look no further than All City Plumbers. We will thoroughly assess all areas of your sewer lines. Some common issues that we look for during the process include:

Leaks

Leaking pipes are the most common plumbing issue that homeowners face. When left untreated for too long, they can cause pipes to loosen or crack. We may use a high-definition camera to locate leaks in your pipes and determine if you need CIPP pipe lining to seal them, especially in your drainage pipes.

Clogs

If you notice that the sink is taking too long to drain water, that could indicate a clog in your drain or sewer lines. Therefore, you should contact a seasoned plumber from our team to help you determine the problem. During the inspection, we will look into the cause of the clog and resolve it. We may also suggest sewer pipe lining to keep clogs from recurring in the future.

Corrosion

Pipes corrode over time due to exposure to water minerals and chemicals, among others. As a result, they may fail sooner than expected, leading to costly damage. Pipe lining companies conduct comprehensive sewer line inspections to see if your corroded pipes are still repairable or already past their prime. Doing so allows us to recommend the best course of action.

If the damage is minor and isolated, we may recommend repair methods such as cast iron pipe lining to address the issue. This extends the life of your pipes and protects against corrosion in the long run.

At All City Plumbers, we perform in-depth inspections and quality repairs to make sure that your pipes stay in the best possible condition. Contact us today to schedule an appointment.
