A majority of the home in the Denver Metro area are public water. This was a new concept to me as I grew up with a well. When you are buying a home, you have the opportunity to compile due diligence on the new home during an inspection. A buyer may perform a sewer scope during the inspection period.
A sewer scope is when a professional from a sewer company inspects the sewer line. A camera is attached to a hose which is run from the house to the main sewer line. The sewer scope will show any breaks or build up in the sewer line. Most sewer scopes cost around $100-$175.
Are you wondering if you should perform a sewer scope during your inspection? Make sure to ask your agent of the pros and cons.
