What is the cost of a sewer camera inspection for my property?
The cost of a sewer camera inspection for your property can range from $100 to $800, depending on the location, size of the property, and the complexity of the inspection.
How can I determine if a leak in my plumbing system is a minor issue that I can fix myself, or if it requires professional repair services?
As a licensed plumber, I recommend assessing the severity of the leak by checking the size, location, and potential cause of the leak. Minor leaks that are small, easily accessible, and caused by loose fittings or worn washers can often be fixed by homeowners. However, if the leak is large, hidden behind walls or floors, or caused by a more serious issue such as a burst pipe or corroded plumbing, it is best to seek professional repair services to prevent further damage and ensure proper repairs.
What is your availability for emergency plumbing services, and how quickly can you respond to a plumbing emergency?
As a licensed plumber, my availability for emergency plumbing services is 24/7, and I can typically respond to a plumbing emergency within one hour.
