Common Questions

How can a plumbing inspection from Caribou Services help prevent a sewer backup in my Grand Haven home?

Our specialized inspections use camera technology to visually inspect your private sewer line from the house to the city connection. We look for cracks, blockages, root intrusion, and signs of bellied pipes that are common with our area's shifting soil. Catching these issues early allows us to recommend repairs or cleaning before a complete backup occurs, especially important given the strain aging municipal pipes can put on your home's system.

My home is older. What does your inspection look for regarding aging pipes?

For Grand Haven's older homes, our inspection focuses on the material and condition of your pipes. We check for corrosion in galvanized steel, deterioration in clay tile lines, and the integrity of cast iron. We also assess the scope and condition of the cleanout, which is critical for access if a backup does happen. This gives you a clear picture of your system's health and helps us create a prioritized plan for maintenance or replacement.

If the city's sewer lines are old, how does inspecting my home's pipes make a difference?

While we can't fix city infrastructure, we ensure your home's connection to it is sound. A common cause of backups is a compromised or clogged private lateral line. Our inspection verifies your line is clear and properly pitched, and that you have a functioning backwater valve if needed. This proactive step protects your property from backups originating from either public system overloads or private line failures, giving you local, actionable solutions.
