Sewer Scope Inspections
What’s Below Matters Too.
Your home inspection shouldn’t stop at what you can see. A sewer scope inspection provides a closer look at one of the most important—and often overlooked—systems of a home.
Clear Answers. Fewer Surprises. A Smarter Investment.
What Is a Sewer Scope Inspection?
A sewer scope inspection uses a specialized camera to examine the interior of a home’s main sewer line.
The camera travels through the pipe and provides a view of its condition, helping identify potential problems that may not be visible during a standard home inspection.
Potential concerns can include:
- Tree root intrusion
- Cracks or damaged pipes
- Buildup and restricted flow
- Blockages
- Pipe deterioration
- Collapsed or displaced sections
- Other conditions that could affect proper drainage
This non-invasive inspection can provide valuable information about the condition of the sewer line before costly problems arise.
Why Sewer Scope Inspections Matter
Avoid Costly Surprises
Sewer repairs can become expensive. Identifying potential concerns early gives you an opportunity to understand the problem before it becomes a major repair.
Protect Your Investment
For homebuyers, knowing the condition of the sewer line can provide important information before completing a purchase.
For homeowners, an inspection can help identify developing problems before they cause significant damage.
Identify Root Intrusion
Tree and shrub roots naturally seek moisture and may enter sewer lines through cracks, joints, or damaged areas.
A sewer scope inspection can help detect root intrusion before it leads to serious blockage or pipe damage.
Detect Blockages & Damage
The camera inspection may reveal cracks, buildup, deterioration, obstructions, or other conditions that could interfere with proper flow.
Know Before You Buy
A home may look great above ground while an expensive problem is developing below it.
Adding a sewer scope inspection to your home inspection can give you a more complete understanding of the property and help you make a more informed decision.
