If you have problems with your drains, then a drain camera inspection is a good follow-up to take. Getting one of these inspections done ensures that you can properly identify whatever problem you have with your drains. So, when is the right time to have one of these inspections? Keep reading to find out when a drain camera inspection may be a good idea.
Recurring/Widespread Clogging
Everyone experiences a clog in their toilet or sink from time to time. The occasional clog should not be cause for concern. If you experience clogs all throughout your house, however, or if these clogs pop up repeatedly, you may have a bigger issue. These kinds of bigger problems indicate that there’s likely an obstruction in your main sewer line. Getting a drain camera inspection will let you properly diagnose whatever the obstruction is.
You Smell Sewage Throughout Your House
The smell of sewage can have many origins. Sometimes, it comes from your toilets. Other times, it could be from biofilm on drains that are dirty. It might also be sinks that have filthy overflow drains. If your nose is telling you that something isn’t right, it’s best to have a professional plumber pay you a visit to perform a drain camera inspection. That way, they can identify any clogs you may have, as well as come up with a repair process for your drains.
Your Walls or Floors Have Water Damage
Drain lines are found on both the walls and floors of houses. If leaks pop up along these lines, you could start to experience water damage on your walls and flooring. This is when getting a drain camera inspection can be an inspired idea. This kind of inspection is great because you’re able to identify leaks in hard-to-reach locations.
