Sewer Scope Inspection

A sewer scope inspection can prevent such unpleasant surprises, offering valuable insights into the unseen depths of your plumbing system.

A sewer scope inspection is a small investment compared to the potential financial and emotional burdens of undetected sewer problems. By prioritizing preventative measures, you safeguard your property’s value, ensure peace of mind, and avoid costly surprises in the future.

What is a Sewer Scope Inspection?

Think of it as a colonoscopy for your sewer line! A sewer scope inspection utilizes a specialized video camera mounted on a flexible cable. This camera is inserted into your sewer cleanout, a designated access point, and navigates through the underground system, capturing detailed video footage of the pipes’ interior.

Why is a Sewer Scope Inspection Important?

Here’s why you shouldn’t skip this crucial step:

  • Peace of mind: Knowing the condition of your sewer lines eliminates uncertainty and empowers you to make informed decisions about your property.
  • Early detection of problems: Cracks, blockages, root intrusion, and other issues can be identified before they cause major headaches (and wallet aches!).
  • Preventative maintenance: Addressing minor issues early on can save you thousands of dollars in costly repairs down the road.
  • Increased home value: A clean sewer scope report can attract potential buyers and potentially increase your asking price, especially for older homes.
  • Compliance with regulations: Some municipalities require sewer scope inspections during real estate transactions.

Who Needs a Sewer Scope Inspection?

Homeowners considering buying, selling, or refinancing a property, especially those built before the 1970s or with known plumbing issues, should strongly consider a sewer scope inspection. It’s also wise for existing homeowners to schedule periodic inspections to proactively maintain their sewer system.
