A sewer inspection can uncover hidden issues that aren’t visible during a standard home inspection, helping you avoid unexpected repair costs and move forward with confidence during the transaction..

Real Estate Agents: Support your clients with thorough, non-alarming, and unbiased sewer line assessments. Our clear reports and straightforward communication help keep transactions on track while ensuring your clients are well-informed without unnecessary concern.

Homeowners and Property Owners: Regular sewer inspections help maintain the overall health of your plumbing system. Identifying issues early—such as root intrusion, buildup, or minor defects—can prevent more serious problems and costly repairs in the future.

Property Managers: Protect your properties and tenants by proactively identifying potential sewer line issues before they lead to backups or damage. Routine inspections can help reduce emergency repairs, minimize tenant disruptions, and preserve the condition of your investment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. A sewer line inspection for homebuyers is highly recommended because the main sewer lateral is underground and not fully evaluated during a standard home inspection. A sewer camera inspection can reveal hidden issues like root intrusion, cracks, offsets, or pipe deterioration before you close escrow.

A general plumbing inspection checks visible fixtures and water flow inside the home. A sewer camera inspection specifically examines the underground main sewer lateral using CCTV equipment. This allows us to see the actual condition of the pipe from the house to the city-owned sewer main line.

If defects are found, you’ll receive a same-day sewer inspection report with video documentation explaining the issue and its location. Since we are an inspection-only company, our findings are unbiased — giving homeowners and real estate agents clear information to negotiate repairs or plan next steps.

Yes — and this is one of the most valuable ways homebuyers use our inspection reports. If our camera inspection uncovers issues like root intrusion or cracked pipes, you'll receive a same-day written report with video documentation and repair cost references. Your real estate agent can use that report to request a price reduction, ask the seller to make repairs before closing, or negotiate a credit toward closing costs. Because our reports are produced by an inspection-only company with no financial interest in repairs, they carry credibility in negotiations that a plumber's report sometimes doesn't. Many of our clients have used findings from our inspections to save thousands of dollars before closing.

Many homebuyers assume newer homes are problem-free, but sewer issues aren't limited to older properties. In Los Angeles and Ventura County, we regularly find defects in homes built in the 1990s and 2000s — including improper pipe installations, construction debris left inside lines, and missing or improperly installed cleanouts. Even in newer developments across areas like Valencia, Stevenson Ranch, and Camarillo, soil movement and root intrusion from recently planted landscaping can affect sewer lines within just a few years. If you're buying a home regardless of its age, a sewer scope inspection gives you certainty — and peace of mind that's worth far more than the cost of the inspection.
