sewer camera inspection in Massachusetts by MillTown

Are your plumbing systems acting strange? Is your toilet backing up despite not having an obvious clog? It might be time for a sewer camera inspection in Massachusetts! Sewer cameras consist of a camera at one end of a long, flexible rod that connects to a computer to show a live feed of what’s inside your sewer pipes. Call our highly-skilled professionals, and we’ll be able to get your pipes cleaned out. But how does sticking a camera into your pipes help you get your pipes fixed?

Here are four ways a sewer camera inspection in Massachusetts can help solve your plumbing problems:

Get the right fix the first time

There are a variety of reasons your drain pipe may not be working. Things flushed down the toilet or the sink drain may have caused a blockage, tree roots might have grown into the pipe, or the sewer line may be cracked or disconnected. There’s also the possibility you have a water leak. Each problem requires its own unique solution, and a sewer line camera can help us figure out exactly what we need to do to fix it.

Avoid unnecessary digging

Usually, the only way to get a good look at your pipes is to dig into your yard and look at the pipes. Not anymore! Sewer camera inspections offer a non-intrusive way to look at your pipes without tearing up your garden.

Receive a reference video for insurance

When we check out your pipes with a sewer line camera, you also get a video of the footage for your own use. This can be useful if you have to explain to your insurance agency what happened.

Much cheaper

As well as being cheaper and faster than digging for pipes, a sewer camera inspection can help you locate early warning signs of bigger problems. By finding these issues and dealing with them quickly, you can save more money by not undergoing serious repairs.

Benefits of a Spring Camera Inspection from Milltown

Benefits of a Spring Camera Inspection from Milltown

Service Tech

Spring weather can cause a wide range of plumbing issues in your home or business, so you should always be prepared. Most of your plumbing is hidden between walls or buried underground, so a plumber used to have to cut into the area. Luckily, camera inspections are now available!

This is a non-invasive method for plumbers to detect plumbing problems. If you suspect something is seriously wrong with your plumbing, you can benefit from a thorough inspection. Maintaining your plumbing is important, and a camera inspection can prevent and help repair the following problems.

Spring Problems that Camera Inspection Can Detect

  • Tree root damage. If you’re experiencing problems with your plumbing, one common culprit is tree roots. Your main sewer line is full of running water, and since tree roots naturally seek out moisture, some of them end up breaking through the sewer line. When a tree root finds its way through a joint in the sewer line, it starts to absorb water and expand, eventually causing the line to break or collapse.
  • Old pipes. Sometimes the issue may be that your main sewer line or plumbing is old and wearing down. The older the plumbing system, the more susceptible it can be to damages, and a camera inspection can help confirm the age of your plumbing and sewer line.
  • Severe clogs. Because some clogs are impossible to reach without professional help, and a camera inspection helps your plumber treat the clog efficiently by finding the direct source.
  • Cracked or misaligned pipes. Some deep clogs can be due to a crack in the piping or a poorly aligned connection. Without having to cut into the walls or dig out an entire section of the sewer line, a camera inspection makes it significantly easier to detect cracks, potential clogs, and leaks.
