Frequently Asked Questions

A residential sewer line inspection usually takes around 35 minutes. However, several factors can stretch this time:

Missing, buried, or hidden sewer cleanouts: Cleanouts allow inspectors to access a sewer lateral line. If sewer cleanouts are missing or buried, searching for them adds time to the inspection.

Long or complex sewer lines: Most residential sewer lines in Los Angeles and Ventura County are less than 100 feet. However, some longer sewer lines or those with many turns take longer to navigate with the inspection camera.

Blockages or root intrusion: In some instances blockages or root intrusion make it hard for the inspection camera to go through a sewer line.

Remember: The 35-minute estimate doesn’t include the time for the sewer inspector to re-watch, prepare, and upload the inspection video, write and distribute your inspection report.

Residential sewer line inspections in LA and Ventura County typically range between $170 and $350.

What are the different types of companies that conduct sewer inspections locally?

In general, there are three types of companies that conduct sewer inspections locally. The type of company you choose for inspecting your home’s sewer lines directly affects the comprehensiveness and reliability of the inspection and reporting you will receive.

Plumbers: Plumbers typically charge between $170 and $300 per sewer inspection. While some plumbers may find conducting inspections less profitable, they may perform them with the expectation of securing repair work on the sewer lines they inspected, potentially leading to a conflict of interest.

Local Home Inspectors: Local home inspectors usually charge between $250 and $330 per sewer scope inspection when added to a general home inspection. However, their inspections may not be as comprehensive and often do not include line/defect locating, as home inspectors are generalists rather than specialists.

Inspection-Only Sewer Inspection Companies: Inspection-only sewer inspection companies in Los Angeles, like ours, typically charge between $270 and $350 per residential sewer inspection. Our specialized focus ensures a thorough and reliable assessment of your sewer lines without any potential conflicts of interest.

Sewer line inspections are a specialized type of assessment that typically isn’t included in a standard home inspection. While some home inspection companies may offer sewer inspections as an additional service, it’s important to note that home inspectors generally do not provide detailed cost estimates or pinpoint the location and depth of any damage or defects found in the sewer lines they inspect. Additionally, their inspection reports may be brief and contain vague recommendations.

For a more thorough inspection and comprehensive reporting, it’s advisable to enlist the services of a dedicated sewer inspection specialist. These specialists utilize specialized equipment, take the necessary time to conduct a detailed assessment, and can offer better value by providing extensive information about the condition of the sewer line. When needed, they can also offer suggestions and cost estimates for the most cost-effective repairs.

Some of the most common defects we uncover during sewer line inspections are: pipe cracks, fractures, offsets (this is when two sections of pipes meet but do not line up), root intrusion, pipe deterioration, collapsed sections of pipes, blockages, grease build up, and bellies (section of pipes that are sagging).

On average, it cost $20,000 to replace a sewer line in the Los Angeles County.  The cost is about the same in Ventura County.
