Should I Scope a Sewer Line Before Buying a House?

Yes, you should always include an inspection of the sewer line before committing to a house purchase. The inspection won’t cost much and will save you from costly repairs down the line if there is an underlying problem. As a new homeowner, the last thing you need is water backflowing into your house because there’s a tree root blocking your sewer line or strangling the pipe. You’ll be facing potentially replacing the sewer line, tearing up your lawn and driveway, and paying to have the tree taken down with stump removal. Instead, take the time to schedule an inspection before buying the house – it’s worth the peace of mind.

Why Do Older Homes Need a Sewer Line Inspection?

We mentioned how tree roots can cause problems with sewer lines, and it’s especially prevalent in older homes. Tree roots are one of the main reasons for sewer problems, and these roots continue to grow as time passes. Eventually, they’ll make their way into tiny sewer line openings, wrapping around the piping, and latching onto debris. The older the home, the more likely it is that root growth is significant enough to damage the pipes.

Plus, many homes built between the 1950s and the 1970s often had sewer lines that rate to last up to 50 years – eventually collapsing with time. These lines were made from a pulp blend with a tar coating, disintegrating as they age and weakening enough to let tree roots push through.

If you’re wondering whether an inspection is worth it, it likely is. Better to be safe than sorry!
