Sewer/Septic & Drain Line Scope Inspection
Sewer/Septic & Drain Line Scope Inspection
Underground drainage systems are critical to the function of a property but are not visible during a standard inspection. A Sewer/Septic & Drain Line Scope Inspection is performed to evaluate the condition of accessible waste lines using specialized camera equipment.
This service involves inserting a high-resolution inspection camera into accessible cleanouts or drain openings to visually assess the interior condition of the piping system. The inspection focuses on identifying observable issues such as:
- Blockages or obstructions
- Cracks, separations, or misaligned joints
- Root intrusion within sewer lines
- Deterioration or corrosion of piping materials
- Evidence of previous repairs or recurring flow issues
Video and images captured during the inspection are incorporated into a structured report, providing clear documentation of the system’s condition at the time of inspection.
This inspection is limited to accessible portions of the system and does not include excavation, system cleaning, or full operational testing of septic systems. Septic tank evaluation, pumping, and certification may require additional services by licensed septic professionals.
Any deficiencies or concerns identified should be further evaluated and addressed by appropriately licensed plumbing or septic contractors.
This service is recommended for buyers, property owners, and investors seeking a clearer understanding of the condition of underground drainage systems, particularly for older properties or those with a history of plumbing concerns.
