A sewer inspection is done with a specialized camera to inspect the inside of pipes, drains and sewer lines. Sewer cameras can determine if there is something wrong within the system. Sewer inspections are critical in discovering issues such as root intrusions and obstructions. If you have recurring clogs / obstructions, we recommend a sewer camera to determine if there is a larger issue going on.

Sewer inspections can also be preventative. When selling/buying a home they recommend getting a camera sewer inspection to prevent any issues or address the issue before getting worse.

The camera is a specialized tool that only a professional should operate. It records a video in real life that can even be viewed on a computer screen to review the inspection again.

Everyone loves a good breakfast; however, your drains do not agree!

Yikes! This is How Your Grease Drain Looks Like If You Don’t Fix It | by Sarah Lavinski | DIY ...

A lot of people say, “it’s okay if you use hot water.” Don’t let them fool you. After a while the grease collects in your drains and gets into the sewer lines which doesn’t just create a kitchen clog, but it can create a clog throughout your home. If this does happen, the best thing to do is pay your local plumber to come out and clear the line. If it doesn’t get resolved damage can be caused in your sewer lines which can create a larger problem.

Our best advice to dispose grease is:

Let the grease dry and dispose into a container or throw away. If there is excess grease still on the pan, you can use a paper towel to scrape it off and throw away.

Tis the season for freezing weather! During this time of the year frozen pipes are going to become the biggest emergency this time of year and Craig Johnson Plumbing is here to help during these emergencies or to even just examine your pipes before they freeze to make sure they’re in good condition.

What Causes Pipes to Freeze?

If there is standing water in your pipes during the times when temperatures drop the water will then expand and freeze. It could then cause pressure on the pipes causing them to burst.

If you plan on leaving for the holidays and / or go on vacation during this cold weather, we recommend you turn off your water before leaving to prevent this issue when you’re out of town.

How to Prevent Pipes From Freezing

Again, if you plan on leaving your home for a few days, remember to shut off your main water supply. This will ensure that you will not have any standing water in your pipes for them freeze while you’re gone.

INSULATION. Insulating your pipes will protect them as well helping them from freezing. If you are unsure if your pipes are insulated, please call us and we can help you!
