We are dedicated to providing comprehensive home inspection services to ensure your peace of mind when buying or selling a property. One crucial aspect of our services is the Sewer Scope Inspection, a vital component in evaluating a home's overall condition. In this guide, we'll walk you through what a Sewer Scope Inspection is and why it's an essential part of the home inspection process.

Why Choose a Sewer Scope Inspection

When purchasing a home, it's easy to focus on the visible aspects, such as the foundation, roof, or electrical systems. However, the condition of the sewer system is equally important. A Sewer Scope Inspection involves inserting a specialized camera into the sewer lines to assess their integrity and identify potential issues. Here are some compelling reasons to consider this service

1. Uncover Hidden Problems:

​

  • Many sewer issues are hidden from plain view, making it challenging to detect them through traditional methods.
     

  • A Sewer Scope Inspection reveals problems like tree root intrusion, pipe damage, blockages, and cracks that could lead to expensive repairs.
