A sure sign! American Plumbing, LMP #556

 When I drive up and see a cleanout like this, I know that you had a busted drain line in the slab that was never corrected, it was just abandoned and rerouted.  This allows the abandoned cast iron drain line to eat away and mold to grow through the slab.  Call American Plumbing today!

A temporary repair! American Plumbing, LMP #556

 A customer recently bought this home and called about constant stoppages.  While performing the video inspection, I found multiple previous repairs including this repair.  The piping is beginning to flatten due to being crushed.  This particular repair appears to show the previous owner did not want to replace the entire drain line as needed and requested the previous plumber to make a temporary repair that would hopefully last until they sold the home.  IT DID!  Call American Plumbing today!
