If you’re currently in the home buying process and you’re looking at homes built before 1975… get the sewer scope inspection!
We hear stories like this all the time… a family just bought their first home, and shortly after moving in found out they have cast iron pipes that are causing them some back ups and slow drains
So they call a plumber, maybe get a second option from another. Both plumbers tell them they can
A) tunnel under the slab and replace all the drain pipes
B) jackhammer through the floors of the home to replace the drain pipes
They’ll quote them a ridiculous amount of money to replace all the pipes.. but they’ll never tell them they have a 3rd option, that requires NO digging and costs 1/3 - 1/2 the price.
Most plumbers hate pipe lining because they want to sell you a full sewer repipe! They would rather charge you to make double than invest the time into training and money into equipment to be able to offer pipe lining that eats into their profits.
And if you think your real estate agent knows everything and wouldn’t sell you a home with bad pipes… most of them don’t know this option exists and don’t know how expensive a full sewer repipe can run.
If you’re someone who is in the home buying process and looking at older homes, or you’re an agent showing some older homes to your client, call us for a FREE sewer scope inspection so we can evaluate the system.
Our free inspections are conducted by a trained pipe lining foreman that actually does the work. We use a camera to inspect every drain line under the home, and the section of pipe that runs from your clean out to the city sewer connection or septic tank.
We will tell you if the home’s sewer drains are a good candidate for pipe lining, how much it would cost and how many days it would take, and whether the system would require a full replacement.
We leave you with a diagram of the home’s sewer system layout, measurements by the foot so you know exactly how many feet you’re looking at, and clear and honest opinions on your best move.
The best part? We have sellers, buyers, and realtors use our quotes to make the home buying or selling process more efficient.
