What Are the Benefits of a Video Pipe Inspection?

When you need a drain pipe cleaning in Doylestown, PA, you want to make sure that the job is thorough. After all, you don’t want to find out months down the road that a tough clog was somewhere deep in your plumbing system and didn’t get addressed.

You can keep reading to learn more about why a video pipe inspection is so beneficial for identifying drain clogs and other plumbing problems. When you’re ready, you can give our team a call to schedule your service to keep your residential plumbing system well-maintained.

Precision

Pinpointing where a deep clog is can be difficult. Slow drains can mean that there is a clog somewhere in your system, but if we are not able to fish it out with a snake tool, it’s too deep for us to identify visually. Without a video pipe inspection, it would take some guesswork to figure out where the clog is and then take your pipes apart to find it and break it down. 

When we use a small video camera to look inside of your plumbing system, we can pinpoint exactly where a clog is so we can treat the problem with precision instead of spending more time on guesswork. Not only will we know exactly where a clog is, but we also know what the clog looks like.

This can help us determine what kind of tools we need to use when breaking down the clog so that we can make sure we get it in its entirety. Plus if we need to cut into your ceilings or walls to get to a pipe, we know exactly where to begin working.

Longevity 

Another benefit of a video pipe inspection is being able to verify that we broke down a clog without leaving behind any residue. It’s possible that even when we get rid of a clog and water begins flowing well again that there is still some of the leftover clog stuck to the sides of your pipe.

When this happens, clogs can develop again quickly. Ideally, we want to clean the pipe and remove the clog without leaving anything behind. Video pipe inspection can help us to confirm that we are able to achieve this goal.

Another aspect of longevity when it comes to a video pipe inspection is the longevity of your plumbing system. When we can work smarter and not harder, it’s possible to limit the strain that your plumbing system takes on.

For example, even if you don’t have any tough clogs, we may use a video pipe inspection to get an idea of how your plumbing system is aging. When we do this, we can prevent problems before they ever begin.

Confidence

You’ll also get the peace of mind in knowing that we addressed your plumbing problems to the best of our ability. After we break down the tough clog, we can talk to you about what caused it so you can take action to prevent similar clogs in the future.
