February 10, 2020 - /PressAdvantage/ - Bell Harig Home Inspections has just announced that sewer line camera inspection services are now available to residents in the Culpeper area. This new and important addition to the services that the company offers should prove to be very valuable to potential buyers in the area. Further information about this specific service can be found online at https://bellharig.com/sewercamerainspection which is the company’s website.

Whether a homeowner has a septic system on the property or a sewer service provided by the local waste management organization, there are pipes in the ground that are the sole responsibility of the property owner to maintain. When a blockage of any kind happens in the pipes on the customer’s side of the property, the blockage has to be cleared.

This is where the sewer line service comes in. The process uses a specialized camera which is also called a sewer scope. It unravels like a hose, pushing a camera down the pipes and in the direction of the blockage. By measuring the distance from the entry point, this allows the sewer line inspection to identify the location of the issue.

If there is a blockage in a sewer line, then the problem usually becomes very obvious and very quickly. Toilets, when flushed, will not drain correctly and completely but will start to back up. Such occurrences are not only inconvenient but could even lead to flooding the room with very unpleasant waste. This is obviously an experience to avoid if possible.

Of course, it’s not just blockages that need to be considered when checking a sewer line. Cracks, such as those caused by tree roots, etc., could lead to more extensive damage and even significant existing breakages all need to be considered. Sewer line problems are not always immediately identifiable in the way that a line backing up is. Sewer lines like every other aspect of owning a property need to be properly maintained and that means regular maintenance. Sewer line camera inspections have made this job considerably easier than it once was.

It’s not just sewer line camera inspections that the company has to offer. Bell Harig Home Inspections has recently expanded to include Culpeper Virginia and surrounding areas. When considering buying a new home it is vital that a proper home inspection is carried out prior to purchase. Most houses have minor faults that need to be corrected or repaired and these will go unnoticed without a professional inspection.

A professional inspection literally checks every square inch of the property under consideration. From the top of the roof to the bottom of the basement and all points in between will be subject to scrutiny. Faults of some description are nearly always found. Many will be minor, but others may be quite major and can even result in a buyer canceling the purchase. Without a home inspection, the purchase would have gone ahead, and the purchaser would then have that major problem to deal with themselves.

Many aspects of home inspection such as checking for termites, or checking the wiring, checking the drains, etc. are very obvious to most buyers. In addition to all the expected aspects of home inspection, Bell Harig also offers radon testing. Radon is colorless and odorless and is a carcinogen. Radon is potentially very hazardous to an individual’s health and its existence is far more prevalent than most people are aware of. There are various methods for dealing with radon removal but of course, the problem needs to be identified in the first place.

A company spokesperson said, “Most mortgage lenders nowadays will insist on a home inspection prior to the purchase being completed. This insistence on inspection was a very positive move by the industry and has undoubtedly stopped some buyers from making very expensive mistakes. All Bell Harig inspectors are fully qualified and will carry out an extremely thorough home inspection.”
