3. Customer is searching for a plumber to address shower pipes that seem to be banging around. Upon arrival the technician inspected the shower pipes in the upstairs bathroom and discovered some movement. Determined much of the movement is due to pex piping behind wall but that tightening diverter to wall could potentially eliminate some of that movement (diverter leaks when shower is running so quoted replacing it). To make any further adjustments would require cutting into wall behind shower which customer is declining to do at this time.

Customer is searching for a Drain professional due to a backed-up sewer line. The technician arrived to investigate backed up sewer on new home. Used sewer camera to investigate problem because line was not currently backed up. Found the line to have a blue conduit through it and the sewer line broken. Located and traced the sewer line. Line is marked with pink paint and pink flags. This was a very difficult locate and took extra time due to heavy interference from a large power line underground. It was necessary to use two different locating devices to verify the location of the damage. After the line increases in diameter near the power box the sewer is under water, further complicating the locate process. It is possible that this sewer is angled down but I can’t be sure.
