FAQs
How can a plumbing inspection help prevent problems with my old Princeton home's sewer line?
A professional plumbing inspection using a sewer camera allows us to see inside your pipes without digging. For Princeton homes with aging sewer lines, this is crucial. We can spot early signs of cracks, root intrusion, or bellied pipes that are common in our area. Catching these issues early with an inspection can prevent a complete sewer line failure and a much more expensive emergency repair down the road.
What should I do if I suspect my pipes are frozen, and can an inspection help?
If you have little to no water flow, act quickly. First, locate the suspected frozen area if possible and gently apply heat. Then, call us immediately. While an inspection can't thaw pipes, a post-thaw camera inspection is highly recommended. It lets us check for any cracks or splits that may have occurred when the ice expanded, preventing hidden water damage inside your walls or foundation once the pipe is flowing again.
Why are sewer line issues so common in the Princeton area, and how do you fix them?
Many Princeton neighborhoods have older homes with original clay or cast iron sewer pipes, which deteriorate and are susceptible to root damage over decades. Our process starts with a detailed camera inspection to pinpoint the exact problem. Depending on the issue, we offer trenchless repair methods like pipe lining, which creates a new pipe inside the old one with minimal digging, saving your lawn and driveway while providing a long-term solution.
