Why Is a Sewer Camera Inspection Necessary?
The sewer line beneath your home can be difficult to assess since it’s typically buried underground. Problems like leaks, blockages, and corrosion may develop and go unnoticed without proper inspection. A professional plumber uses a specialized camera to visually inspect the pipes, detect any issues, and pinpoint the exact location of the problem. Early detection of plumbing issues can save you significant costs in repairs and maintenance.
Common Issues Identified Through Sewer Camera Inspections
A sewer camera inspection can help detect a range of problems in your plumbing system, including:
- Blockages: Often caused by grease, food scraps, or foreign objects flushed down drains.
- Corrosion: Over time, moisture can erode pipes, leading to potential bursts.
- Damage to Joints: Where pipes meet, joints may weaken and fail.
- Leaks: Cracks, broken seals, or tree roots can infiltrate pipes, causing leaks.
- Pipe Separation: Shifting ground conditions can cause pipes to separate, leading to backups.
By identifying these issues early, you can prevent major plumbing disruptions.
Sewer Scope Camera Inspection for Homebuyers
If you’re purchasing a new home, a sewer scope camera inspection is an essential part of due diligence. While general home inspectors check for surface-level problems, a camera inspection provides a deeper, more detailed view of the sewer line’s condition. The camera will send real-time footage back to a monitor, allowing the inspector to identify any potential issues such as blockages, leaks, or pipe damage. You’ll receive a comprehensive report that helps you make informed decisions about your home purchase.
