The Importance Of Annual Drain Inspections For Homeowners

Annual plumbing inspections are a great way to spot drain and sewer problems before they strike. Plumbing inspections allow you to identify issues with your drain and sewer system early so that you can perform maintenance and repairs before they turn into full-blown disasters. Keep reading to learn more about what a professional plumbing inspection includes, and how it can benefit you! 

What Is Involved With A Plumbing System Inspection? 

A plumbing inspection is performed by a professional plumber and involves a comprehensive inspection of your home’s plumbing system, especially the main sewer line that connects your home to the city sewer system or your septic tank.

Plumbing inspections allow us to see inside your plumbing system’s pipes and check for plumbing problems like sags or low spots, root intrusion, buildup in your pipes, and damaged pipes. We do inspections with a special camera on the end of a long, flexible cable that we can push through your pipes, letting us see every bit of your drainage system. 

After your plumbing is inspected, our technician will explain their findings to you, you’ll receive detailed written notes, and we can upload the video for you to watch later if you’d like. 

While our technician is at your home, they can also look at any plumbing fixtures that aren’t draining the way you’d like, and use a power auger to restore proper flow.

How Frequently Should You Have Your Drains Inspected? 

If you have an older home, if you’ve had clogged drains or sewer problems in the past, or if you notice your drains are starting to run slowly, it’s a good idea to have thorough plumbing inspections done once per year. This will give you the peace of mind of knowing that your plumbing system is working as it should. Contact us for drain inspections in Calgary.

Benefits Of An Annual Plumbing Inspection 

A Plumbing Inspection Performed Annually Can Save You Money

While plumbing inspections cost some money upfront, they often save you money in the long run. By spotting potential plumbing problems in advance, you can avoid expensive repairs in the future. The cost of a camera inspection is much less than the price of having to call a plumber in the middle of the night if your plumbing system backs up, not to mention the cost of any costly repairs or remediation that might be needed after a backup or other plumbing emergency.

An Inspection Can Help Prevent Problems 

If you do regular plumbing inspections, you’ll discover any new problems with your home’s plumbing as soon as they develop. If you catch a plumbing problem early, you can often avoid major plumbing issues down the line by scheduling preventative maintenance cleanings or having minor repairs done.
