Sewer Inspection Services


Realtors work with inspection companies to carry out the necessary home inspections before sales take place. While a pipe inspection is a standard part of the process, it usually doesn’t include sewer lines. We recommend realtors get professional sewer inspections for the following reasons:


Help Buyers Make Informed Decisions


Many residential and commercial properties still use cast iron or clay pipes. These types of pipes were made to last, certain factors like recurring clogs and shifting soil may affect their structural integrity. They may be also reaching the end of their service life, which calls for a complete pipe replacement. This could be an issue with the buyer, which is why sewer inspections will help make informed decisions.


Better Negotiate Costs


During a standard plumbing inspection, the inspector will look for visible leaks, run water through the fixtures, and test the water pressure. However, inspectors do not perform sewer line camera inspections and miss possible blocked or damaged sewer lines. Including a sewer camera inspection will better help you negotiate repair costs if deemed necessary and will give the buyer peace of mind.


Check for Tree Root Intrusion


Sewer inspections will ensure that no tree roots are penetrating the sewer lines. This is especially the case for homes surrounded by mature trees. If we find root mass in the pipes, we may recommend drain cleaning or pipe replacement to keep this problem from recurring soon. In turn, the buyer won’t have to worry about dealing with sewer backups, slow drains, and other unforeseen problems that can result in emergencies.


Taking Initiative


When realtors take the initiative to enlist professional sewer inspection services, it minimizes the chances of clients coming back with complaints later.
