A sewer scope inspection is exactly what it sounds like. I will inspect the sewer line of your home by inserting a flexible borescope camera into your pipes. The camera will be guided into the sewer line, which drains your home’s wastewater into the sewer system.
Using this camera, I will perform a comprehensive inspection of the sewer line, and look for things like cracks, damage to the lines, roots that have grown through the pipe, and any other potential concerns. I will tell you what I have found, and provide you with a comprehensive, written report about the sewer line’s condition.
Why bother with a sewer scope inspection? Here are just 3 of the benefits of inspecting a home’s sewer lines.
- Save money and headaches – The cost of repairing a sewer pipe can be more than $125 per foot of pipe. This means that a sewer scope inspection could easily save you thousands of dollars if it reveals an issue with a home’s sewer pipe.
- Get more leverage when negotiating a home purchase – If you notice damage to the home’s piping when making an offer on a home, you can negotiate concession and repairs from the home seller, or exercise your inspection contingency and back out of the sale.
- Peace of mind for a low cost – Sewer scope inspections are very affordable, and provide you with valuable peace of mind. If the results are clear, you’ll know your pipes are in good condition. And if there is an issue, repairing it early will save you time and money.
A sewer scope inspection is quick, affordable, and can save you thousands of dollars if an issue is found. So whether you’re buying a new home or suspect an issue with your home’s sewer line, call in Stauss Inspections.
