Keep your home running smoothly with a healthy sewer system.
Sewer Scope Inspections
A sewer scope inspection thoroughly examines a property’s sewer line, starting from the house foundation to the city or HOA connection or septic tank. Utilizing a high-definition camera, the inspector identifies cracks, bellying, clogs, debris, and root intrusion. The service provides video footage and a comprehensive report highlighting any detected issues.
Getting a sewer scope inspection is crucial as it helps uncover potential problems early on, allowing for timely repairs or replacements. During real estate transactions, sellers may address identified issues to facilitate the sale. Not obtaining a sewer scope can lead to costly repairs in the future, making it a recommended step in property purchases.
Sewer scope inspections are typically scheduled during real estate transactions but can be arranged independently at any time for maintenance purposes. The service is not limited to real estate transactions and can be utilized based on property owner concerns.
The cost of repairing or replacing a sewer lateral varies widely, averaging around $2,500 for repairs and $3,000 to $25,000 for full replacement, depending on the extent and nature of the damage. Neglecting sewer issues can lead to sewage backups, water damage, and health hazards, making early detection and repair essential for homeowners. Investing in a professional inspection with an in-pipe camera service can provide an accurate diagnosis, potentially saving time and money in the long run.
As a homeowner, you’re accountable for the sewer line stretching from your property to the city sewer, HOA connection, or septic tank. Avoid unexpected costly repairs by being proactive. Safeguard your investment with a thorough sewer line scope inspection from Top Choice Home Inspections.
