Drain Line Video
Drain Line Inspection
We highly recommend adding this valued service as part of your due diligence when buying or selling a home. Drain line repairs can be costly and this type of inspection is the only way to verify if the main drain line is in good condition or has defects like cracks, deterioration, clogs, root intrusion or other concealed hidden defects.
The Process
State of the art equipment and report writing software is used, and a video and written inspection are usually provided the same day. A drain line video inspection consists or running a video camera through the main drain line of a house to the public sewer connection or to an onsite septic tank to determine the condition of this drain line. A full report and summary will be generated that includes a narrated video of the interior of the drain line with repair or maintenance recommendations.
Thorough explanation of all findings
As cool as this technology is, there are limitations of thermal imaging. We are transparent!and include the fact that, as with any type of inspection, this technology can’t predict future conditions. Nevertheless, if a roof is experiencing moisture intrusion at the time of the inspection, and is detected with our thermal imaging camera, we can inform the client this condition will very likely lead to serious structural issues, if left unaddressed. Not a future prediction, but a reason to hire a licensed roof contractor to further explore this issue.
Recommendations
Some of the typical recommendations may include sewer cleaning, hydro-jetting, line coating, or even replacement of the drain lines. These recommendations can only be identified with a drain line video inspection.
Even the most experienced home inspectors in the industry can only guess the condition of the waste lines and The Property Inspection Pros always recommends this additional service to help take the guesswork out of it.
