Sewer Camera Inspection in Scottsdale, AZ

When you are dealing with a slow drain that will not improve, or have to put up with sewage smells and gurgling from your fixtures, it is usually a sign of something more than an isolated clog. At Reliant Plumbing & Rooter, we offer sewer camera inspections for the homeowners and businesses of Scottsdale, AZ as a way to get a non-invasive read on what is going on. There is no need to guess at the state of your pipes before we start on any hydro jetting, repair or replacement; our cameras put an end to that.

The Process Behind a Professional Inspection

A technician will run a flexible cable with a waterproof video camera through a cleanout or other access point. The live feed we get from this allows us to see exactly where a clog or root intrusion is, and to spot any corrosion, offset joints, cracks or even a collapsed part of the line. It is also a good way to tell what the pipe is made of and where debris has a habit of collecting. Since the scope does its work from inside the line, there is no exploratory digging required and your landscaping or driveway is left undisturbed. We use top-of-the-line equipment to find blockages and leaks in real time, and once the inspection is done, the technician will let you know if the system calls for a cleaning, further testing, or some other remedy. You will have video documentation to back up whatever decision you make on repairs.

What Makes Sewer Line Inspections Important in Scottsdale

You will find thousands of postwar homes in Scottsdale. In fact, city research into some 15,000 houses put up from 1946 to 1973 shows many have aging lines or remodeled connections that a regular home inspection might miss. Both new buyers and those who have been here a while can put their minds at ease with a professional scope.

Then there are the local conditions. Our soil has rock and caliche which, per construction standards, means you do not always get a uniform surface for the pipe to bear on. Hard ground is not a guarantee of damage, but it can complicate things if an inspection turns up a belly or a failed joint. Identifying the issue beforehand keeps you from having to do costly excavation. And while our water hardness of 16 to 25 grains per gallon is more of a concern for supply plumbing, the residue and grease can still restrict a household drain. A camera check will tell you if it is a localized matter or something in the deeper system.

Drain Issues and the Local Climate

The desert environment presents its own set of variables. The heat and dry air in summer can pull the water out of a trap you don’t use often, leaving you with an odor you might mistake for a sewer issue. Monsoon winds and rain can bring to light drainage weaknesses. Or you may have mature landscaping where tree roots have found their way to a leaky underground pipe and made a blockage worse.

We enjoy working in the Scottsdale area for the Old Town vibe, the scenery of the Sonoran Desert and places like Taliesin West in the McDowells. The winters are mild enough for fine outdoor living, and one can have a memorable meal on the shaded patio at the Old Town Tortilla Factory in its historic adobe setting.

If you are buying an older property or have recurring backups and odors, it is time for a sewer camera inspection. Reliant Plumbing & Rooter is here to provide that service for your home or business. Put in a call to the team to set up an appointment and be sure of your sewer line’s condition.
