Why add a sewer scope to my inspection?

A buried, failing line is invisible during a standard inspection but can cost five figures to dig up and replace. A scope catches it before closing.

Which homes most need a sewer scope?

Older homes, homes with large trees near the line, and any home where the sewer history is unknown benefit most.
