Sewer Scoping and Home Inspections

Sewer Scoping and Home Inspections

Having a sewer scope done while the home inspector completes his works looks like a no-brainer. After all, the home inspector will not be checking the plumbing under the slab of the house or underground.

I agree. That's why I recommend professionals to do sewer line inspections with professional grade equipment.

Why don't I do it myself? All the home inspector organizations say it is a great add-on that will make me a lot of money.

The truth is that I did offer sewer scoping with home inspections in Moscow and Pullman and Lewiston. But, the same as with home inspections, a person who does six a day is going to be far better at sewer scoping, finding problems before their YOUR problem, than a home inspector who does it on an occasional basis.

Also, in the State of Washington, a contractor's license from Labor and Industries is required to perform sewer scoping. I let my lapse when I stop sewer scoping. None of the inspectors in Pullman or Clarkston carry the license, either.

So, I recommend the following companies for sewer scoping here:

Clearwater Rooter

Roto-Rooter

Drain Pro

All will do a great job for you. They're pros in their field.

And, if you need a pro in the home inspection field, please give me a call. I'd be delighted to be of service.
