About Great Dane Plumbing in San Bernardino, CA

A professional plumbing inspection uses a specialized sewer camera to see inside your pipes. This allows us to spot the early signs of tree root intrusion, which is very common in our area, before a complete blockage or pipe collapse occurs. Catching it early means we can often clear the roots with less invasive methods, saving you from the major expense and disruption of a full sewer line replacement.

In San Bernardino's hard water area, a thorough inspection should evaluate your entire water system. We check the water softener itself for salt levels, resin bed condition, and proper cycling. More importantly, we inspect your pipes and fixtures for scale buildup that the softener may have missed, test water pressure before and after the unit, and ensure there are no cross-connection issues that could contaminate your drinking water.

We recommend a professional plumbing inspection every 1-2 years for most San Bernardino homes. Given our local soil conditions and tree types, annual checks are wise if you have mature trees near your main sewer line. This proactive schedule is the best defense against the two most common and costly issues here: hidden root damage and the slow, damaging effects of hard water on appliances and pipes.
