Sewer Cleaning and Inspection Services
Introduction:
Crews from Uni-Jet Industrial Pipe Ltd. will be working in your area cleaning and inspecting the sewer lines. Closed Circuit TV (CCTV) sewer line inspections are crucial for proactively identifying and addressing potential issues within a sewer system before they become problematic. These inspections use cameras to assess the condition of pipes, allowing for early detection of issues like blockages, cracks, tree root intrusion or corrosion.

Special Instructions for Residents:
Before work begins
Sometimes during sewer cleaning, changes in air pressure can cause water to splash from toilets, sinks, or drains. To help prevent any mess or damage in your home, we recommend the following:
- Keep toilet lids closed when not in use.
- Use drain plugs in sinks and bathtubs.
- Remove floor mats from your bathrooms and place old towels around the base of toilets.
- If you have a float plug in your floor drain or a backwater valve, make sure it’s clean and working properly.
- Cover basement floor drains with thick plastic (like a freezer bag) and place something heavy on top to hold it in place.
Once the work is done and the equipment has moved out of your neighbourhood, you can return things to normal.
During and after the work
It’s possible you may notice a temporary odour in your home. If that happens:
- Run water in all sinks, bathtubs, and showers.
- Flush toilets.
- Pour a bucket of water into any basement floor drains.
- Open some windows for ventilation.
Reminders:
- Please obey all posted signage when travelling through construction zones.
- All construction activities will follow the Community Standards Bylaw
