The Importance of Sewer Scope Inspections
A sewer scope inspection is not just a routine procedure; it’s a proactive measure that can save property owners thousands of dollars in unforeseen repairs.
With advanced camera technology, a sewer scope allows us to venture into the depths of your sewer lines, revealing hidden issues that may otherwise go undetected.
By identifying problems early on, such as blockages, cracks, invasive tree roots, or structural damage, homeowners can address these issues promptly, preventing costly repairs in the future.
How Does a Sewer Scope Inspection Work?
During a sewer scope inspection, our skilled inspectors carefully navigate a high-resolution camera through your sewer lines, capturing detailed footage of the interior condition. This process allows us to assess the overall health of your sewer system, identifying any abnormalities or areas of concern.
With real-time monitoring, we can pinpoint the exact location and extent of any issues, providing you with actionable insights to make informed decisions regarding maintenance or repairs.
What Will a Sewer Scope Inspection Reveal?
- Blocked pipes: Debris, grease, or foreign objects can cause blockages, backups, and sewage overflows.
- Tree roots: Tree roots invade pipes, causing cracks and breakages.
- Outdated pipes: Old clay, plastic, or cast-iron pipes may need replacing.
- Incorrect fittings and faulty installation: Misaligned pipes or fittings can disrupt the wastewater flow, leading to leaks, corrosion, and structural damage.

A Sewer Scope Inspection Will Save You Money
A sewer scope inspection is not just an added expense; it’s an investment that could save you thousands of dollars. If flooding or foundation issues occur or mold invades the home, you could pay thousands of dollars for repairs.
The cost of an inspection is minor compared to fixing a ‘broken sewer line. A repaired sewer pipe can reach $300 per foot, and sewer line replacement costs range from $2,500 to $30,000 or more.
