Homebuyer Sewer Inspections
Don’t Buy a Buried Nightmare
Buying a home in West Bloomfield, Birmingham, or Royal Oak is a massive investment. While a standard home inspection covers the roof, the electrical, and the HVAC, it rarely covers the most expensive utility on the property: the main sewer line.
At Sewer23™, we provide specialized Homebuyer Sewer Inspections that give you a crystal-clear view of what’s happening underground. Before you sign the closing papers, make sure you aren’t inheriting a Collapsed Drain Repair or a pipe choked with Main Sewer Tree Roots.
Knowledge is Power. Our inspections can save you thousands in negotiations or future repairs. Call Sewer23™ at (248) 993-3423 to schedule your pre-purchase inspection.
Why a Standard Home Inspection Isn’t Enough
Most home inspectors only check if the water “drains.” They don’t see the structural integrity of the pipe walls or the hidden blockages waiting to happen.
What We Look For:
-
Pipe Material: Is it original cast iron, outdated clay, or modern PVC?
-
Root Intrusion: Are there “mats” of roots that will require immediate Hydro-Jetting?
-
Structural Failure: Are there offsets, cracks, or “bellies” in the line where water pools?
-
Outdated Infrastructure: We identify old “U-bend” traps that may need Sewer Trap Elimination to meet modern standards.
The Sewer23™ Inspection Report
We provide the professional documentation you need for your real estate negotiations:
-
HD Video Footage: A complete recording of your Camera Inspection, which you can share with your Realtor or the current homeowner.
-
On-Site Expert Analysis: We explain the condition of the Main Sewer Line in plain English.
-
Written Estimates: If we find an issue, we provide an itemized quote for Sewer Line Replacement. You can use this quote to ask for a “seller’s credit” to cover the repair.
