To protect yourself from unwelcome surprises after you move in, a home purchase drain inspection is an essential part of your due diligence before signing on the dotted line. This evaluation looks at a building's drain and sewer system to identify any existing issues or damage that need repair. By verifying the condition of the system prior to completing the sale, you can avoid unexpected expenses down the road.
What Is a Drain Inspection?
Camera inspections enable our technicians to inspect the state of your drains without doing any damage to your home. No digging, nor breaking down of walls is necessary whatsoever.
With our specialized drain cameras, we can inspect any of the drainpipes in your home, from the 3 inch drain to the 6 inches drains. This covers all the pipes in your home.
One very serious problem that a camera inspection can uncovers is of tree roots in the drains. These manifest as hair-like roots that squeeze through tiny cracks or loose joints. As the roots grows and expand they cause larger and larger holes.
Tree roots can cause huge problem. The best solution is to request a camera inspection. If there are any manifesting in your drains, they will be promptly removed. For this purpose, you need to employ a knowledgeable service with experience removing tree roots. Some roots removal methods merely flatten them against the drain, unclogging the drain but not dealing with the source of the problem.
