A sewer scope is a thorough, professional HD video inspection of the lateral sewer line leading from the house that is being inspected to the city municipal line or septic tank. This service can reveal blockages, damages to the pipe system, invasive tree roots, and other major problems. The issues that can be discovered during this type of inspection are vital for potential buyers and homeowners to be aware of as the necessary repairs or replacements to eliminate the identified issues can be costly. By purchasing this service prior to making an investment in a new home, you will eliminate the possibility of incurring thousands of dollars in repair costs after closing.
