Sewer Inspections & Locating
Common Issues
Root Intrusion
Roots growing into sewer lines is a common issue. A tiny crack in your sewer line could open the doorway to some big issues. As the waste water seeps from the line it becomes a magnet for the roots of trees, bushes and other plants. As roots fight for the water they enter the line through the crack and expand, latching on to other debris. This can cause issues ranging from slow drainage to complete blockages.
With our sewer inspection equipment, we can easily locate and mark the location of roots as well as offer options to get rid of them.
Pipe Corrosion
Depending on the year your home was built, you may experience these types of issues with your sewer lines. Years or decades of wear and tear on cast iron pipe can cause corrosion in the line, leading to leaks, breaks and other issues. Similar issues can occur with plastic sewer pipes as well due to improper installation.
