Sewer Line Camera Inspections
Plumbing problems, that are often out-of-sight and out-of-mind, can be an expensive problem over time, especially with certain homes. Old cast iron sewer pipes on older homes can be particularly problematic. On concrete slab foundations, the cost for repairs can be anywhere from $3,000 to $30,000. A sewer line camera inspection is a great way to know the condition of the sewer piping on a home that you are planning to purchase.
About sewer lines
There are several types of sewer lines that have been used over the years by plumbers. Older types can be prone to damage, root intrusion, and even standing water, which can accelerate all the above issues. Sewer piping materials can include cast iron, PVC, ABS, concrete, Orangeburg and even clay. In addition, homes that are not that old, that have built up foundations (typically in a sloped grade), can have issues due to settled back filled material under foundation.
