Reichbaum Servie: Experienced Plumbing Company Serving Union City 16438

Our plumbing inspection uses specialized tools, like video cameras and pressure testing, to closely examine all pipe joints in your system. In Union City's climate, joints can weaken over time due to temperature changes and ground movement. The inspection identifies early signs of corrosion, minor leaks, or stress at these connection points. By catching these issues early, we can perform targeted repairs to prevent a small drip from becoming a major leak that causes water damage to your home's structure or foundation.

During an inspection, we focus on the health of your main sewer line, which is a common culprit for backups in our area. We use a sewer camera to navigate the line from your home to the municipal connection. This allows us to spot problems like tree root intrusion, pipe bellies (sags), cracks, or buildup of grease and debris—all frequent causes of backups in Union City. Identifying these blockages or weaknesses lets us recommend cleaning or repair before you experience the inconvenience and mess of a full backup.

We recommend a professional plumbing inspection every 1-2 years for most homes. However, if your home is older or you have mature trees near your sewer line, an annual inspection is a smart, preventative measure. Regular checks are especially helpful here in Union City to monitor for the gradual issues that lead to joint leaks and backups. Think of it like routine maintenance for your car—it’s more affordable and less disruptive to handle small repairs proactively than to deal with an emergency pipe burst or sewer overflow.
