Most Sun City homeowners should have a yearly inspection of their plumbing system. This allows professionals to get an up-close and thorough inspection of your pipes and your appliances that use water. Our team can often spot a problem before it causes a leak, preventing damage. If there are areas of your plumbing system that are incorrect because of poor installation, we can make modifications. This prevents the need for emergency burst pipe repair in many cases.
Routine maintenance can address problems that can lead to plumbing damage. For example, removing clogs can prevent pipes from leaking or bursting. Avoid using store-bought drain cleaners as a preventive method. These products usually contain very caustic chemicals. Chemical reactions during clog removal can permanently damage your pipes. Not to mention, chemical drain cleaners are dangerous to your health. They can irritate your airways, sinuses, and eyes.
There are various methods of pipe repair. Choosing the appropriate method depends on the age of the pipes, the extent of the damage, and accessibility. Camera equipment can be used to inspect the plumbing system and accurately diagnose the issue.
Pipe lining is a newer method that works well when minor problems exist. There isn’t a need for digging up your entire yard with pipe lining. Instead, a skilled expert can insert a flexible liner into your existing pipe. Once it’s in place, it will be left to harden or cure. This essentially creates a pipe within a pipe and eliminates the need to remove the old pipe.
