Yakima Sewer Inspectors-Sewer Camera & Pipe Locating Service

As our valued Yakima customer, we want you to get up close to our sewer inspection camera to take a look on screen with us as our sewer inspector shows you a full 90 degree angle of your sewer pipe. 

Our sewer technicians will explain what you are looking at on the camera as they scope the pipe, pointing out the areas of the pipe that are normal and other sections of the sewer line that may have problems like broken or offset  joints. Other issues such as root intrusions and sunken or sagging pipe sections will also be visible on the sewer camera.

We like to have our customers completely involved in the sewer inspection process so that we can explain everything that is on the video camera and give complete details during the process, which we believe is a better way to provide our service. We can also provide sewer camera footage to customers that can’t be present during the inspection if needed, along with a description of that video footage.

Yakima, WA Sewer Pipe Locating Service.

Once your Yakima sewer problem has been visualized on our video sewer camera by our inspector, the next step is to find the exact location of the problem by using our underground radio transmitter that is built into the sewer camera head.

We then use an above ground radio frequency receiver that detects the exact location and depth of the sewer camera head through a series of triangulation procedures that the receiver unit performs automatically for pinpoint accuracy. It’s all a bit technical but it works flawlessly to locate the sewer problem so that it can be dug up and repaired when needed.

If you are like most people you may not consider that there is a huge benefit to scoping your sewer drain line. 

The pay off that you get when you decide to go ahead and make a decision to have 24 Rooter of Yakima inspect your sewer drain is that you get to know what’s really going on inside your sewer system.

Some of the big advantages of a sewer camera diagnosis are the following

1.  The camera will show if there are any mysterious water leaks coming from your home that is costing you extra money on your water bill.
2. Same as number 1. If you are on a septic system you want to know if there are water leaks in the house plumbing before it saturates or destroys your drain field.
3. You really should know what kind of condition your sewer system is in to know whether there are any pesky tree or shrub roots that are trying to grow inside the pipe before they completely take over the sewer and ruin the pipe so that you can get them treated and killed off.
4. It would be beneficial to know if there any low spots in the pipe that will trap sewage inside your sewer main and cause a backup when you least expect it. By knowing of a low spot you can either repair the section or use some temporary maintenance routines to get by until it can be repaired properly.
5. The sewer inspection camera can also be used to locate exactly where your sewer line is located on your property so that if you have any plans of landscaping or constructing anything on your property you will have piece of mind knowing which areas of the property to avoid building on top of your sewer.
