Smell Tests - Smoke & Peppermint

Notice sewer smells or gas odors in your home or business? That means it is time for us to use our smoke test. The appearance of smoke during one of these tests—along with a video pipe inspection—will show us if you have split, cracked, or broken pipes or if your issue is being caused by something else, such as tree roots.

To detect drainage issues the same way, we use a peppermint/cinnamon test. The pungent smell of these spices travels through your entire drainage system. Wherever the scent seems to be the strongest is where the underlying problem is likely hidden.

Video, Inspections, & Pipe Tracing

There are many different types of tools at our disposal when it comes to discovering the source of a leak. With pipe tracing, we are able to locate sewer lines and specific pipes. Then, we use a sewer camera to inspect your sewer line, an infrared camera to detect cold or hot spots in Sheetrock, and/or perform a video pipe inspection to get a good look inside your pipes. These leak detection methods also help us determine what is causing the problem and how to fix it.

We use acoustic, electronic leak detection equipment to pinpoint leakage in a drainage system or water supply to significant effect. To learn more about how we find leaks, don't hesitate to get in touch with us today.
