Sewer Scoop

Why Do Sewer Pipes Fail?

Under performing side sewer pipes can have devastating outcomes resulting in thousands of dollars paid out for sewer replacement costs, home remodel costs and personal property damage after sewage back-ups. Often these events are "out of the blue" with no significant warning signs to predict a sewer failure. Pictured is a sewer pipe that over time failed due to multiple factors. Old materials, proximity to trees and differed maintenance including no check-up (sewer scope) allowed this pipe to fail.

  • Sewer pipes naturally deteriorate over time.
  • Damage can be caused by construction trades.
  • Shoddy or improperly installed sewer pipes fail.

Technician Introduction With Q And A

Our fully trained inspectors show up on-time in a clearly identifiable inspection vehicle. They introduce themselves, provide a clear explanation of the process and answer any questions the client may have. At this stage common sewer concerns are discussed and the inspection expectations are set.

Determine Proper Access Location

After a thorough walk through inside and out the inspector will determine the most ideal entry point or entry points to gather the greatest amount of information possible. This step is crucial for the success of the inspection. Depending on the building and/or property size it may take multiple access points to fully understand the performance of the side sewer pipe.

Conduct A Thorough Sewer Inspection

Our inspectors utilize state of the art camera systems and locate equipment. All of our equipment is manufactured by the same company and operate seamlessly to provide the most accurate report information. Meeting the highest expectations, our inspectors carry 3 reel size/lengths which equates to 3 times productivity compared to competitors.

Identify Key Condition Items And Components

Our inspectors are trained to identify specific types of pipe materials dating back 100+ years as well as elements of pipe condition good and bad during the sewer inspection. Our inspectors know when conditions are serious or not. This is based on extensive training and inspection experience. All of the information detailed in the video is used to create the final report.
