Sewer Scope
A camera run of the main line, because the most expensive thing in the yard is the one nobody can see.
A standard home inspection stops at the visible plumbing. The line running from the house to the city sewer or the septic tank is underground, and nothing about a normal inspection reveals its condition. A sewer scope puts a camera down that line and records what is there.
Why Choose Sewer Scope
What a Sewer Scope Inspection Finds
We run the camera from an accessible cleanout through to the connection and record the whole pass. In the East Valley the common findings are roots that have gone looking for water, offsets and separations at joints where the soil has moved, and bellies — low spots that hold water and catch debris.
- Root intrusion at joints and connections
- Cracks, breaks and separations
- Blockages and heavy build-up
- Bellies and offsets that hold water
- General line condition and material
Do You Need a Sewer Scope on Your Home?
Older homes are the obvious case, especially where large trees have been in the ground for decades. Newer homes are worth scoping too. Construction debris left in a line and badly bedded pipe both turn up on young houses. If you are wondering whether it is worth it: the scope costs a fraction of what a main line repair does.
