Sewer Scope Inspections

See what's hiding underground. Camera inspections of sewer laterals to uncover blockages, damage, and costly surprises before you close.

What Is a Sewer Scope Inspection?

A sewer scope inspection uses a flexible camera inserted into the sewer lateral — the pipe connecting your home to the municipal sewer or septic system — to visually inspect its condition. Sewer line repairs can cost thousands of dollars and are not covered by standard home inspections. Adding a sewer scope gives you a complete picture of the property before you buy.

What the Camera Reveals

Root intrusion from trees and shrubs
Pipe cracks, fractures, and collapses
Grease and debris buildup
Offset or misaligned pipe joints
Bellying (sagging sections that trap waste)
Corrosion and deterioration
Improper pipe materials or connections
Distance and depth of the lateral

Why Add a Sewer Scope?

01

Avoid Costly Surprises

Sewer line replacement can run $3,000–$15,000 or more. Discovering issues before closing gives you negotiating power or the option to walk away.

02

Older Homes Are Higher Risk

Homes built before the 1980s may have clay, cast iron, or Orangeburg pipes that are prone to deterioration and root intrusion.

03

Certified Sewer Camera Training

Our inspector holds a Sewer Camera Training certification, ensuring a thorough and professional evaluation of your sewer lateral.
