What is a sewer camera inspection?

During a sewer camera inspection, we insert a small camera into your pipe in order to determine problem areas. We are able to see the inside condition of your pipes in real time, and locate exactly where the problem area is underground. Sewer camera plumbing inspection shows the exact cause of the problem. These inspections have also been used to locate lost jewelry andother items accidentally flushed down the drain or toilet

When should I have a sewer camera inspection done?

Sewer camera inspections can provide answers for a variety of concerns. With the ability to see the inside of the pipes, without destroying the pipe, sewer camera inspections are a non-invasive approach. Some of the concerns below may call for a sewer camera inspection.

  • Re-occurring plumbing issues Constant stoppages or backups can signify an issue in your plumbing system. A sewer camera inspection can pinpoint the cause of your reoccurring problems.
  • Foul Odors
    Foul odor, when no other source is apparent, can be a sign of a break in your sewer line. Whether the break is due to faulty piping, a collapse, or something intruding the pipe, a sewer camera is a good option to determine the cause and map out a plan for repairs.
  • Insects coming from drains
    Unfortunately in Florida, insects are extremely common in the home. Sewer pipes are often one of their favorite homes. However, if there is a surplus of insects coming up from your drains, it could be a sign of a break somewhere in your line.
  • Slow drainage
    Slow drainage, whether it be in the kitchen, the shower, or the bathroom sink can signify a problem within your system. There may be an area where the pipe is deteriorating and causing your drainage to slow down. Let Kunes Plumbing perform a sewer camera inspection to determine the exact cause of your issue!
  •  In the process of selling or buying a home
    In many cases and especially with older homes, it is recommended to inspect the condition of the plumbing before selling your home, or before buying a new home. This ensures that the plumbing is in correct working order, and that you are not locked into a home with improper plumbing.

What can be detected through a sewer camera inspection?

Collapsed or Burst Pipes

Collapsed or Burst Pipes are one of the more serious cases that we see here at Kunes Plumbing. With no pipe to go through, your waste has nowhere to go, causing frequent back ups. If it is a pipe near the home, the waste and water may begin to seep into the surrounding area, causing dangerous and costly damage.

Corrosion, Bellying, or Deterioration.

Corrosion, Bellying, and deterioration can be the early warning signs of collapsing pipes. Early detection of these signs can save you from a plumbing disaster. A sewer camera inspection can be your saving grace when it comes to detecting these issues, which are unable to be seen through other techniques.

Leaks and Breaks

Unnoticed leaks or breaks in your line can be a silent killer when it comes to your plumbing system. When one spot in the line is compromised, it often will compromise the rest of the system as well. Moisture build up can cause unwanted growth of mold, mildew, and other contaminants that can be dangerous to you and your family. Sewer Camera Inspections can catch these issues before it is too late

Tree Root Damage

One of the most common problems we detect with our sewer camera is tree root damage. Often with piping near large trees, we see roots make their way through your pipes, causing damage that may go unnoticed until it is too late. Smaller trees, shrubs, and grass have also been the culprit, but in all cases, the damage is a problem.

Movement of pipes

The movement of your pipes under your home can be caused by a multitude of reasons.

  • Soil Movement Caused by either natural ground movement, or things like construction or digging, movement of the soil surrounding your pipes can cause changes in their support, leading to breaks, misalignment, or cause them to become unbalanced.
  • Moisture Changes Sadly very common in Florida, flooding can be a major cause of pipe movement. When water saturates the soil, it may soften it, causing the stability that was perfect prior to the flood to now be inadequate. Pipes may begin to sag, move, or shift.
  • Poor Installation Pipes that were improperly installed in the first place can be destined to fail. Poorly secured or buried pipes are more susceptible to damage and movement over time
  • Improper Drainage Similar to the effects of moisture changes, improper drainage for the areas surrounding your pipes can cause water to collect around the pipes. This causes the soil to either erode away or become unstable.
