Importance of Conducting a Sewer Inspection First

There is no denying the many benefits of trenchless pipe lining in Roswell, GA, one of the convenient, cost-effective pipe restoration solutions offered by NGI Trenchless Pipe & Sewer Repair. However, it’s also important to conduct a sewer inspection first before any decisions are made about what steps to take next. Here’s why.

Finding the Source of the Problem

Sewer lines aren’t pressurized like water lines. This can make it difficult to accurately pinpoint the source of the problem. With a sewer inspection done with a high-resolution camera, the affected area can be quickly and accurately identified. The extent of the damage or blockage can also be determined.

Determining If Trenchless Repair Is Possible

CIPP pipe lining is a trenchless repair method that allows a damaged pipe to be restored without the need for excavation. But in order for this approach to repair to be possible, the damaged pipe must still be stable. Results from a sewer inspection can show whether or not the affected pipe is stable enough for a liner to be inserted into the affected pipe.

Gathering Other Useful Information

Another reason a sewer camera inspection needs to be done before sewer pipe lining or any other pipe restoration method is because of the information it can provide. In addition to what was already mentioned, results from an inspection can also help determine what approach to cleaning the pipe before repairing it is safest and most appropriate. An additional inspection can also be done after a pipe is cleaned to look for flaws that were hidden by debris.
