Sewer Scope Inspection
Professionals in Greeley, Loveland,
and Fort Collins
We've found that many of our customers don't fully
understand what happens in plumbing diagnostics
and repair. Granted, some aspects are probably best
left unknown.
However, when people know what happens during
a sewer line inspection, for example, they might
realize, "I need a sewer line inspection!"
So when you're wondering, "who does sewer scope
inspection near me?" give us a call. We're locally-
based and are experts in Northern Colorado
plumbing.
Now we can evaluate and see (and record) and
locate problematic sewer/drain lines. This might
include root intrusion, cracks, punctures, corrosion,
or misaligned pipe sections.
The camera we use for sewer camera inspections
will also identify grease buildup, leaks and
obstructions. We have been busy training with our
new equipment and are ready to schedule! If you
are a home owner, realtor, commercial property
owner, home inspector or perspective home owner
we can help you! Give us a call today to schedule!
What is sewer pipe inspection?
When a northern Colorado resident calls with
sewer problems, we know we need to do a visual
inspection of the sewer pipes. Since we can't see
underground, our local plumbers use a durable and
high-tech scope to record video footage used to
diagnose the source of your sewer problems.
How do you know if you have sewer system
problems?
The first thing most of our clients notice is a bad
smell. If it smells like sewage, there's a good
chance it's... sewage.
Joking aside, this is a serious problem that needs to
be fixed as soon as possible. Sewer lines, including
the main sewer line, perform an essential role in
our comfort and safety.
If you notice that your toilet or other drains are not
emptying quickly you should call Top Notch. We
have the equipment and experience to help you
make an informed decision on the right solution.
When To Have a Sewer Camera Inspection
You should definitely call a sewer inspection
company (like Top Notch Plumbing) if you notice
a bad smell or slow-draining pipes.
Home inspections are another example of an
opportunity to get a sewer inspection. It's not
commonly included in a standard home inspection
but could save you from unexpected repairs as you
get settled into your new home.
Large buildings, especially hotels or apartment
complexes, should have regularly scheduled sewer
camera inspections to avoid inconvenient unit
closures. If you can solve a problem before it gets
out of hand, you'll save yourself and your tenants
from a bad experience.
Sewer Camera Inspection vs. Sewer Scope
Inspection
They're the same thing! The device used for sewer
inspection is a scope, which has a camera on it.
Your friendly neighborhood plumber will take a
long cable with a scope on its end and wind it
through the plumbing that connects your sewer line
to the city line. The scope gives a real-time video
feed through the sewer line and also tracks its
location in the pipes.
Top Notch Plumbing uses this specialized
equipment to determine exactly if and where
repairs need to be made.
What do plumbers use for a sewer inspection?
We get to use some pretty high-tech equipment
nowadays. While intuition and killer instinct are
still prerequisites, the gear used for plumbing has
come a long way and allows us to work with
increased efficiency, precision, and safety.
Top Notch plumbers like to use Rigid equipment
for a sewer camera inspection and locating the
source of problems in sewer pipes. The sewer
scopes we use have wireless transponders that
transmit visual details through a camera and
location details. We connect a tablet to the wireless
transponder to see what the camera sees.
When we need to find exactly where our
transmitter is after we've visually identified a
problem area in your sewer pipes, we use a tool
that resembles a metal detector. It's not a metal
detector, but functions in a similar way to provide
us with the immediate location of our scope and,
therefore, the problem area.
The tools we use are top-of-the-line and allow us to
provide our customers with service that exceeds
our competition--in cost-effectiveness and
plumbing performance.
What happens after sewer camera inspections?
We get to work on the problem, and we know
exactly where to work and how to address it. You
might have tree root intrusion, objects, or other
substances blocking your sewer pipes. There could
also be pipe damage due to pipe corrosion, sinking,
or breaking.
On the other hand, we might realize that the
problem is not in your sewer line, and get moving
to find the source and solve your plumbing
complaints.
After your sewer camera inspection reveals the
extent of the problem, we can make a plan to move
forward.
