Visual Inspection
During the first step of a thorough plumbing inspection, surrey homeowners can expect their licensed plumber to perform a visual check on the components of the system that are visible to the naked eye, especially parts that are particularly prone to developing issues such as sewer line and water supply fittings. We'll also check that your drains are functioning normally and check up on appliance connections for water-related appliances such as your dishwasher and water heater. If there's a specific problem that needs to be addressed, we'll focus extra attention on the trouble spot.
Video Camera Inspection
Ever wished you could see inside your drain lines and discover precisely what's happening in there to cause all that trouble? That's possible with a video camera plumbing inspection. surrey plumbing experts from Mr. Rooter use a small camera with a bright LED light attached to a flexible cable to "see" inside your wastewater disposal lines by maneuvering it through your drainage system on a flexible cable—this system is typically referred to as a “push cam” because it is pushed through the lines on the cable.
Once the sewer inspection camera is brought back out of the drain, your plumber can play back the footage and interpret it to find out the nature of the issue and the precise location in your wastewater system that is causing trouble. Sewer scopes are useful to find out the nature of a mysterious plumbing issue, but they're also really helpful for general diagnosis, such as to confirm that your pipes are in good condition during routine maintenance or following a drain cleaning appointment.
Slab Leak Detection In surrey, BC
A slab leak is caused by a damaged, leaking pipe that is located under a concrete foundation. For obvious reasons, leak detection under your foundation is difficult to locate during a plumbing inspection. surrey plumbers on our team have special diagnostic methods that will locate even the most difficult-to-find slab leaks. Video equipment can sometimes be helpful, but we also use additional diagnostic tools, such as acoustic detection equipment and soil probes, to estimate the location of a buried sewer pipe leak.
