The Power of Drain Camera Inspection
In large cities like Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, and York, the drainage system plays a vital role. If the sewer system malfunctions or is ineffective, it can disrupt or even paralyze a homeowner’s daily life. Requiring intervention to resolve a malfunctioning drainage system can lead to significant financial losses. However, with emergency drain repair service and innovative technology, a drain camera inspection, with its non-invasive nature, can transform the way you view your drainage system. Find out with us why you should have a drain camera inspection to monitor your home’s drainage system.
Why choose drain camera inspection?
Drain camera inspection is a non-invasive, minimally invasive method. Traditional methods often require significant excavation, breaking up asphalt and pavement around the house, removing plants, and sometimes even compromising the stability of the structure. A drain camera operates through a small opening in the sewer system. The camera is attached to a flexible cable that runs through the drain line and does not require extensive excavation. Drain camera inspection is a highly flexible method. It can easily navigate the drainage system despite numerous obstacles such as debris, kinked, or damaged pipes. The camera features a pan and tilt function, allowing the operator to inspect the drainage system from various angles. The camera also has a retractable camera, allowing it to pass through pipes of small diameters.
Inspecting Repairs: A drain camera is a valuable tool for inspecting drainage pipe repairs. Using a camera not only allows homeowners to view the results deep underground but also to understand how the drainage system is functioning. After completing the repair process and clearing clogged pipes, our specialists can conduct a post-repair camera inspection.
Location and Depth:
The drain camera head is attached to a cable up to 60 meters long and can be advanced through any obstruction in the drainage system. The camera can be used to determine the depth of the problem. Whether it’s a problem with your home, your neighbor, or the damage is the responsibility of the city, we can use a camera to see what’s wrong with your drainage system. We can see if there are roots growing in the pipes, if a drain pipe is broken, if there are possible blockages in the pipes, cracks in the pipes, or if foreign objects are lodged in the system and preventing it from working effectively.
Corrosion:
Common factors causing corrosion are moisture, aging pipes, exposure to corrosive substances, soil structures, and the material of the pipe. There might be discolored patches and rust inside the sewer pipeline that are only visible due to the drain camera inspection. This method enables the professionals to detect whether corrosion has destroyed all pipes or just some of them. Timely inspection is beneficial and prevents the spread of corrosion.
Cracked pipes:
Identifying cracks can help to prevent future damage to the sewer line. Often due to soil differences, shifting and moisture pipes become susceptible to cracks and further damage. The drain camera inspects the damaged pipes and assesses the severity of cracks. It gives the exact location of the crack further helping in deciding the extent of repair or replacement.
