What Is A Sewer Scope?

Our inspectors use a specialized camera to inspect the condition of the sewer line running from the home to the main sewer connection. This can reveal issues such as cracks, leaks, tree root intrusion, and other damage that could result in backups, clogs, or even sewage spills.

Why Is a Sewer Scope So Important?

If these issues go undetected and the home is purchased, the new owner could end up facing costly repairs to the sewer system, as well as potential health hazards from sewage backups or leaks. By getting a sewer scope inspection before closing on a home, prospective buyers can identify any issues and negotiate repairs or adjustments to the sale price before finalizing the purchase. The average cost of repair for a damaged sewer line can range from several hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars. A sewer scope inspection is an essential step in the home-buying process to avoid unexpected and costly repairs to the sewer system in the future.
