A water leak in a bathroom can quickly lead to extensive damage. If you notice any of the following signs, it’s best to call in a plumber for leak detection as quickly as possible:

• The paint or wallpaper on the bathroom walls has started to peel. Even a tiny leak can permeate paint and wallpaper and compromise their adhesive qualities.
• Mold or mildew growth continues to show up along non-tiled walls or between the baseboards and flooring in bathrooms.
• The ceiling stains below bathrooms.
  Spongy bathroom floors.

When your business has a problem with your sewer line, it can cause serious damage to your home or office. If the sewer line has a clog, it will cause your toilets, sinks, and floor drains to back up, resulting in contaminated water and even raw sewage coming into the business. This is dangerous to your health and can cause significant damage to flooring and walls, as well as to business assets inside the property. Most state sanitation laws require that any carpeting that has been touched by sewer water must be completely replaced, which is an expensive renovation cost.

If your plumber doesn’t use video sewer line inspection, they won’t be able to find the precise location of the clog within the sewer line. This means that the plumber may have to excavate up large portions of the pipe in order to locate the clog, which is a more expensive fee. It also causes additional damage to your lawn or parking lot, since the plumber has to remove grass or soil to get to the plumbing beneath the ground.

At South End Commercial Plumbing, we offer video sewer line inspections to properties in Charlotte, North Carolina. We use a long snake with video equipment, which allows us to get into the pipes without causing any damage to your yard. We can then figure out where and what the clog is, which means we can target and fix the exact problem as fast as possible. If you have any signs of sewer pipe backup, give us a call, and we can come out immediately to give you an estimate.
