“When Is A Sewer Scope Needed When Buyig a Home?
A sewer scope is a test that plumbers and home inspectors perform to evaluate the qualify of a sewer line. A small, waterproof camera is sent through your home’s main drainpipe to the end of your property’s sewer line. You may be advised to perform a sewer scope on a home you’re considering purchasing, although sometimes they’re only recommended on older homes. If you’ll be liable for future sewer line repairs as a homeowner, you should always get a sewer scope before buying, even if the home is newly constructed. Sewer scopes are cheap compared to the cost of sewer line repairs and provide the opportunity to ask the current homeowner to make needed repairs before you buy the property.
