Frequently Asked Questions
How does a sewer camera inspection work, and how long does it take?
A technician accesses the line through a cleanout or drain opening, and a waterproof camera sends a live video feed. Most residential inspections take one to two hours depending on line length and accessibility; excavation is not needed until a repair is confirmed and agreed upon.
What can limit sewer or drain-cleaning warranty coverage?
The company says coverage may be reduced or eliminated for excessive roots, foreign objects, sewers needing repair or replacement, and sewers over 100 feet long without an additional cleanout. It also excludes commercial drains, toilet and urinal augers, and roof vents, and does not perform warranty work after hours or on weekends.
Does Nelson Bros. provide emergency plumbing service?
It offers 24/7 emergency plumbing for issues including leaky or burst pipes, no running water, no hot water and clogged drains.
Will Nelson Bros. install fixtures a customer has already bought?
Yes. The company installs customer-provided fixtures but does not sell fixtures separately.
