The worst disservice you can do to your home is being neglectful of the appliances and systems that keep you comfortable. Your plumbing system, for instance, includes your sewer line, which is a convenient method of waste disposal from your home. While many homeowners don’t think about their sewer line or maintenance, it’s important to schedule annual sewer pipe camera inspections to keep your plumbing in tiptop shape.
Clearline Sewer Repair has specialized in inspection, installation, replacement, and repair of plumbing pipes and lines for a number of years. We employ some of the most knowledgeable, skilled plumbers and technicians in and around Edmonds, so you get the best when you schedule services from our business.
Camera inspections of your sewer lines are innovative and non-invasive. We don’t have to rip into your yard to see what we need to see, making camera inspections easier and a preferred method. The camera is a waterproof attachment on a length of PVC that we run through your plumbing system to view different angles of your sewer. With this method of inspection, we can see leaks, cracks, and bigger problems, then gauge whether your sewer system would need a quick fix repair or more complex replacements.
How Long Do Home Sewer Pipes Last?
The longevity of a sewer pipeline depends on the kind of materials that the pipes are made from. While galvanized steel pipes have a lifespan of 40 years, plastic or PVC pipes and copper pipes can last 100 years with proper care. Clay pipes and cast-iron pipes last a median of 50 to 75 years.
In most cases, sewer pipe inspections won’t uncover anything out of the ordinary. However, when it comes to your home’s plumbing systems, it’s “better safe than sorry.” You can schedule an annual sewer pipe camera inspection by calling Clearline Sewer Repair at 206-637-0965.
