*camera inspections for homes built before 1980*
When we first arrive at your address we will locate the connection points of your lateral line. That is the pipe that is buried underground and runs from your home or business to the street to join another main line. Once we can access the pipe connection and open it, we insert our specially designed video camera into the lateral line. The camera is small enough to be moved up or down the length of the pipe, allowing us to examine the entirety of the pipeline without having to dig it up. The high-quality video feed is sent directly to our on-site technician through a closed-circuit system, where our technician will identify and diagnose any possible problems that appear inside the lateral. These inspections are capable of exposing clogs, cracks, leaks, and breaks in the pipes.
Depending on what we find during the inspection, the results will impact the decision regarding the trenchless repair solution we will recommend. Cracks and leaks can normally be remedied with a pipe lining solution. Clogs can be blasted out with our high pressure cleaning services in a process called hydro jetting called hydro jetting, not only removing the clog, but also removing any sludge along the walls and restoring your pipes back to new condition. A broken or crumbling pipeline can be replaced with a pipe bursting option, in which the old pipe is fractured apart and replaced with a new pipe, all without digging a single trench. Regardless of the repair required, we have a trenchless solution that can be completed within the day and without shutting off your water service. All of our solutions are trenchless-based and can be employed effectively because of our sewer camera inspections.
