Phil at Quest Leak Detection went above and beyond to help a dire plumbing slab leak. We had been through two plumbers and paid for another leak detection service that was incorrect on their findings. Phil was thorough and took his time to find the leak and helped us tremendously. When the insurance would not help us or cover any costs, Phil sent us to contactors and business vendors that would help. We had no running water for over 90 days with no financing to help pay for the needed re-piping. We are highly satisfied that Phil is trustworthy and led us down a path to honest and trustworthy help. Phil is a stand-up businessman.

I used Quest for their leak detection services when we had a slab leak and they helped us successfully get a claim with Statefarm. We subsequently used them to "repipe" our entire house, and their quote was competitive and under warranty.

Not only was their performance exceptional (timing, professionalism, explanations, etc) their follow-through was even more reliable. After their job was done they referred me to a drywall company that was phenomenal. Subsequently, weeks later we thought we had a faulty sprinkler system due to the repiping and they came and helped troubleshoot and did not charge for the visit even though the issue was NOT caused by their fault.

Dan and Philip are phenomenal humans and run a fantastic company, and I would use them again and strongly recommend them to family and friends.

We saw water coming up through our bathroom floor in two places and suspected we had a slab leak. We immediately called a local plumbing company who confirmed that for us. In fact, it was the owner of the company who came out to confirm it. We called Philip to come out and find the leak, and he immediately discovered that it was not a slab leak! It was actually the toilet that was leaking. He replaced our toilet for us, and the problem was solved. So thankful for Philip and his expertise. He is punctual, professional, honest, courteous, and most importantly he knows what he is doing!! Thank you, Philip! We will always recommend him to friends and family and call him anytime we have an issue.

There are a few cities within Ventura County that actually require a sewer lateral inspection before buying or when selling a home. Collapsed sewer lines can be quite expensive to fix, and thus should be examined before purchasing a new property.

If you aren’t buying it or selling a home, there could be other reasons you might want to get your sewer lines inspected with a camera system. If you have been experiencing intermittent backups, this could be an indication of extensive buildup within your lines or even a clog. A camera inspection could help diagnose and provide solutions to a small problem before it becomes a big one. Backed-up drain lines have the ability to cause extensive damage to your home or property and should be taken care of before they become big problems.

How much does it cost?

Luckily, all the technology put into making these cameras isn’t reflected in the price for an inspection. An inspection may differ on price depending on a few factors which include:

If you have accessible clean out.
How much pipe needs to be inspected
The pipe condition
If you have a single story or two story house

What a sewer camera inspection can reveal?

When getting a camera inspection. Your inspector should be on the lookout for a few different signs of problems including:

Organic buildup
Examining each connection and fitting
External material (such as toys)
Sags or dips in the pipe
Adequate water flow
Tree root intrusion
Cracks and tears

Ask For A Report

When performing a camera inspection, whether for your own personal information or when buying / selling a property… make sure to ask for a report!

A report should include photos and or video, property information detail, pipe detail, as well as pipe condition details and an overall score. A well done report should be comprehensive yet easy to read! This can greatly aid your decision-making on what to do with your sewage lines.

How does a proper camera inspection help with insurance coverage?

Typically, insurance doesn’t cover drain line leaks. A point worth mentioning is that no business is in business to lose money, everyone is in business to make money! This includes insurance companies. It’s relatively safe to assume they will not be looking for ways to ensure your coverage and get you your max payout. In fact, unfortunately, it might be quite the opposite. If a drain line breaks, backs up, or leaks… it could be a tough uphill road to get coverage. This is where a camera inspection could help.

A thorough camera inspection would show pipe condition as we as potentially showing the source of the problem, which could greatly aid in getting you coverage. Choosing a company like Quest Leak Detection, which regularly works with insurance companies, is a must! They would have greater knowledge of what is and isn’t covered, and could take more time to see what the real problem is as opposed to what it seems like on the surface.
