Sewer Scope Inspections
in Las Vegas
See what’s happening underground before it becomes a costly surprise.
A Sewer scope inspection uses a specialized high-resolution camera to evaluate the condition of your home’s underground sewer line. Because these lines are hidden, serious defects can exist with no warning signs inside the home—until a backup or failure occurs.
This inspection gives buyers and homeowners critical information before closing, helping avoid unexpected repair bills that can range from thousands to tens of thousands of dollars.
🧠 What Is a Sewer Scope Inspection?
A sewer scope inspection involves inserting a flexible camera into the main sewer line through an accessible cleanout. The camera records real-time video as it travels through the pipe, allowing us to identify:
-
Tree root intrusion
-
Cracked, broken, or collapsed pipes
-
Bellies (low spots holding water)
-
Misaligned or separated joints
-
Foreign objects or construction debris
-
Corrosion or deteriorated pipe materials
📹 A recorded video is provided so you can clearly see and understand the findings.
🌳 What Roots (and Other Issues) Can Do
Tree roots naturally seek moisture and often enter sewer lines through small cracks or joints. Over time, this can lead to:
Roots → Blockages → Backups → Pipe Failure → Costly Excavation
Even newer homes are not immune—construction debris and improper pipe alignment are common findings in brand-new builds.
❓ Why Should I Consider a Sewer Scope Inspection?
