Sewer Scope Inspection in South Metro AtlantaSee the one system your inspection can't.

The main sewer line is one of the most expensive systems in the home, and it's completely underground. A sewer scope runs a camera through the line so hidden problems are found before closing, not after. Available as an add-on to any Steadfast inspection or on its own across South Metro Atlanta.

What the Camera Finds

A clear look at the line from the home toward the street.

We access the line through a cleanout, record the entire run, and deliver a written report with our observations. If issues appear, you and your agent can request repairs or seller credits with real documentation behind you.

01 Common Hidden Problems

  • Root intrusion at pipe joints
  • Cracked, offset, or collapsed sections
  • Standing water and low spots (bellies)
  • Blockages and debris buildup
  • Evidence of prior repairs
  • Aging pipe materials like clay or cast iron

02 What You Receive

  • Recorded video of the sewer line
  • Written report with clear findings
  • Plain-language explanation of what matters
  • Documentation your agent can negotiate with
  • Referral guidance for licensed plumbers
  • Peace of mind if the line is clear
Why Buyers Add It

Sewer repairs in Metro Atlanta can run into the thousands.

A standard inspection cannot see inside the sewer line. For older homes with mature trees, or any home where the line's history is unknown, a scope is inexpensive insurance against one of the priciest surprises in homeownership.

Before You Commit

Know the condition of the line while you can still negotiate. Findings become repair requests or seller credits instead of your problem after closing.

Older Homes & Trees

Clay and cast iron lines age, and roots find their way into joints. Homes from the 1990s and earlier are prime candidates for a look.

Clear Line, Clear Mind

Most scopes come back without major issues. That result is worth something too: you close knowing the line is functional today.

Common Questions

Answers before you book.

How long does a sewer scope take?

Usually 30 to 45 minutes on site. When added to a home inspection, it happens during the same visit with no extra trip needed.

What if you find a problem?

Your report documents it with video. Most buyers use the findings to request a repair or seller credit from the seller, with a licensed plumber providing the fix.

Is it worth it on a newer home?

Newer lines have fewer failures, but construction debris, bellies, and settling can affect any home. If the home has mature trees or any drain slowness, it's worth the look.
