Sewer Inspection for Homeowners

Own a home?

Did you know you are responsible for your sewer pipes from your house all the way to the street or main connection? It’s true, most homeowners do not realize this, so getting a video sewer inspection can be a very informative process that will tell you the condition of your pipes. Lots people think that a sewer inspection is only needed for older homes, but in fact, I have encountered brand new homes with broken or cracked sewer lines from installation.

Preventative Maintenance

It’s never a bad idea to inspect the sewer line, even in perfect sewer systems I recommend a sewer line video inspection every 5 years just to monitor it. Regular sewer inspections can help identify potential issues before they turn into major problems and can save you lots of money in the long run. Don’t hesitate to text or call today.

Have sewer line root intrusions? Maybe a sewer line break? Or pipe offset? My cameras can see the progression of the roots, or condition of a pipe break or offset.

Did you know that after getting roots cleared out of your line they can grow back in as little as 1 year? It’s true, that’s why I recommend you get a sewer inspection of your sewer every year or two after roots are detected to watch the growth and know when it’s time to have them cleaned out again. Also, I recommend using a foaming root killer to keep roots from growing back as fast. Most people will not use the foaming kind, we recommend it as it is the superior choice.

A proactive sewer inspection can provide valuable information about the condition of a home’s sewer system and help homeowners avoid costly repairs and potential health hazards.

Selling your home?

Get a sewer line video inspection and ensure the buyer of your home’s sewer condition. Lots of the sewers in Seattle are especially prone to issues because of age. As sewer pipes age, they become brittle and crack, leading to leaks and/or other issues. Even newer homes should have an inspection done just to be sure nothing was installed incorrectly.

Mark and Locate Potential Issues

In addition to an accurate sewer scope, I can accurately locate and mark any problems if any arise. Saving you money and time on locating and excavation.

Anthony was very responsive. He was hired to scope my drain pipe but offered unsolicited advice about other home improvements I could do to help ward off problems. I am very satisfied with his service

Anthony did a sewer inspection on our house. He was professional, explained things well, was very aware of keeping the work space clean and on top of that - he was just a nice person, which is sometimes hard to find these days. Definitely recommend.

Anthony was very informative and help us determine the issues with our downspouts and breaks in cement drains. He provided pictures of the issues.

Anthony showed up on time to inspect the sewer line for a house my client is interested in buying. Anthony prepared an inspection report so my client could make a decision. a sewer inspection is cheap insurance for potentially very expensive problems. worth the expense.Michael P.

Anthony was on-time, prompt, and efficient. He had many suggestions, but was not a pushy salesman. Also took time to answer some questions I had on unrelated plumbing. Great job!
