Chapelwood Home Services of Newton, NJ, has recently published on their website the pros and cons of video inspections in regards to sewer lines. The company, seen online at http://www.chapelwoodseweranddrain.com, has done so in the hopes that more homeowners will realize the importance of this service as a precautionary method before emergency repairs are needed. Chapelwood Home Services offers 24 hour emergency repairs and maintenance to sewer and drainage jobs around the home and property, and have been a proud member of this industry within the Newton community for nearly two decades.
Sewer inspections of this kind are performed through the use of an LED light and an optical lens which captures images as it is lowered into sewer pipes on a fiber rod. The rod is flexible and can be pushed easily through the pipe, allowing professionals to see anything that might be blocking the line, as well as cracks and other damage which might be inside. As the camera moves, problematic areas are noted or marked for repair following the use of the device.
Pros and Cons of the service vary on a case by case basis, with the most common negative factor being that the camera only picks up images inside of the pipe, and none of the external cracks that may be there. Another con is that the imaging tool doesn't take clear pictures in murky water, making it important that pipes are flushed and flowing before use.
Pros of this service include the use of the highest grade technical equipment available for jobs involving sewer repairs, and being able to determine if there are clogs or breaks before removing any pipe unnecessarily. This is important, because in the past, snaking or rootering could let a professional know that there was a problem, but not what that problem was, or where in the pipe it resided.
For more information on the pros and cons of video camera inspection for sewer repairs, Chapelwood Home Services invites potential clients to visit them online at http://www.sewercleanernewton.com/. The team provides services on industrial, commercial, and residential properties, and urges building owners to remember that only a trained professional should operate the imaging equipment, otherwise unnecessary damage could be caused to the sewage system.
