What Is a Sewer Scope Inspection?

A sewer scope inspection involves inserting a high-resolution, waterproof camera into your home’s main sewer line to examine its condition from the inside.

Our inspector will check for:

  • Cracks or collapses in the pipe

  • Tree root intrusion

  • Corrosion or pipe deterioration

  • Blockages or clogs

  • Improper slope or installation

  • Evidence of previous or current backups

You’ll receive a written report with pictures, that clearly explains any findings, including recommendations for repairs if needed.

Why It Matters

Sewer line repairs can cost thousands of dollars. A quick inspection now can prevent big problems later.
