What to Expect During a Video Camera Inspection of Your New Jersey Home’s Drainage System
Are you considering a video camera inspection for your home’s drainage system but not sure what it involves?
Video camera inspections are a non-invasive, highly effective way to diagnose issues within your system. Understanding what happens during the inspection can help you feel more prepared and confident in the process.
1. Initial Assessment and Setup
The Process:
Before the inspection begins, a technician from Jersey Rooter will conduct an initial assessment of your system. This involves discussing any issues you’ve noticed, such as slow drains, unusual odors, or recurring clogs. The technician will also identify the best entry point for the camera, typically through a drain or cleanout.
What to Expect:
The technician will explain the process and ensure you understand how the inspection works. They’ll set up the equipment, which includes a flexible, waterproof camera attached to a long cable, and prepare to feed it into your system.
2. Real-Time Video Inspection
The Process:
The camera is slowly fed into your drainage system, providing a real-time video feed of the inside of your pipes. The technician carefully monitors the footage, looking for any signs of blockages, cracks, corrosion, or other issues.
What to Expect:
You’ll have the opportunity to watch the video feed as the inspection takes place. The technician will point out any areas of concern and explain what they mean for your system. This process typically takes between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size and complexity of your system.
3. Identifying Issues and Problem Areas
The Process:
As the camera moves through your system, the technician will identify any issues, such as blockages, root intrusion, misaligned pipes, or corrosion. They will take note of the location and severity of each problem, which will be used to create a detailed report.
What to Expect:
You’ll receive a clear explanation of any problems found during the inspection, along with video footage showing the exact locations and conditions of your pipes. This allows you to see firsthand what’s happening inside your system.
4. Providing Solutions and Recommendations
The Process:
Once the inspection is complete, the technician will discuss the findings with you and provide recommendations for any necessary repairs or maintenance. This might include hydro jetting to remove blockages, repairing or replacing damaged sections of pipe, or scheduling regular maintenance to prevent future issues.
What to Expect:
You’ll get a detailed report and a clear plan of action based on the inspection results. Jersey Rooter will provide you with a quote for any recommended services, ensuring you understand the options available to keep your system in top condition.
