Video pipe inspection in Cedar Rapids, IA

How does video pipe inspection work?

Video pipe inspection services involve lowering a long cord into your plumbing system with a camera attached to the end of it. This camera is moved through your plumbing system on motorized wheels, and sends back images to the plumber controlling it.

This process allows your professional plumber to identify any issues that may need to be fixed, in addition to their location, without having to actually dig up the pipe to examine it. Once this inspection is complete, the cord is withdrawn without any negative impact on the plumbing system. The process is simple and unobtrusive, allowing you to rest easy.

Why is this service necessary?

As mentioned, plumbing issues are not the easiest to detect. And they can do some serious damage behind your Cedar Rapids, IA home’s walls and beneath the surface. For instance, pinhole leaks are so minuscule that they only release a couple of droplets at a time—too small to cause a drop in your water pressure or send up any red flags. So they are often left unnoticed for often months at a time, while they slowly eat away at the pipe until it cracks or bursts.

Scheduling regular video pipe inspection, however, allows you to potentially avoid this problem. By waiting it out and hoping nothing is wrong with your plumbing system, you could end up accumulating a number of repair costs for yourself, not to mention a flooded home, at probably the most inconvenient time—is there ever a convenient time for an emergency?
