Is a sewer scope worth it in Tempe?

On mid-century housing with mature landscaping, usually yes. The line is the part of the property nobody can see.

Do I need a sewer scope on a newer home?

It is worth considering. Construction debris and poorly bedded pipe both turn up on newer builds, and a line that was never right does not improve with age.

What if you cannot access the line?

Some homes have no accessible cleanout. If we cannot get the camera in, we tell you that rather than guessing, and we talk through the options.

Sewer Scope for Tempe Properties

Tempe is landlocked and effectively built out. Its housing is largely 1950s through 1970s, and a substantial share of it has been rental property around ASU for decades. Good Faith Inspection Co. inspects homes across Tempe and Maricopa County. Your color-coded report arrives within 24 hours.

Mid-century lines under mature trees in an older, fully built-out city.

Good Faith Inspection Co. inspects homes across Tempe with one goal: that you finish the inspection understanding the house rather than confused about it. We report what we find. We say plainly what we do not know. And we never soften a finding to keep a deal moving.

What Our Sewer Scope Includes

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.

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.
