Video pipe inspection allows you and your plumber to see exactly what problems or defects exist in drain or sewer piping. It is not uncommon to diagnose a problem area in a drain system after using standard drain cleaning methods, but only after using the video pipe inspection equipment can it be determined exactly what and where the problem is.
After “seeing” the problem, it is usually possible to determine exactly what the costs will be to make repairs.
The video inspection camera can determine the condition of piping, where blockages or obstructions are located, and what type of repair may be required.
Video pipe inspection equipment can also be used to determine how well a drain line has been cleaned.
The drain piping will have to be cleared before useful video inspection can be completed because the video pipe inspection usually does not work well under water.
