Inspecting the sewer line of your home is an important and all to often overlooked part of the home buying and selling process. Many home inspectors do not offer sewer line inspections due to the additional equipment needed to inspect this underground system. Here at Blessed Assurance Home Inspections we offer this service to make your home buying or selling process easier and give you one less appointment to schedule.
Having a sewer line backup is a frustrating, and potentially expensive reality of owning a home. Even a relatively inexpensive sewer line repair can cost a few thousand dollars and more extensive repairs easily exceed $10,000-$15,000. Preparing yourself with knowledge about the sewer lines to your house gives you the power to make repairs before something like this happens or budget for needed repairs or replacement in the future.
The side sewer line is the pipe that exits the home and joins up with the city sewer main, at the street. Older homes built before the mid 1900’s, were commonly built with clay sewer pipes. Sometime around the middle of the 20th century, this changed to concrete. At the later half of the century, builders began using plastic pipes (PVC or ABS). Both Clay pipes and concrete pipes are subject to cracking. Tree root infiltration at cracks or joints is very common. While plastic pipes are more impervious to roots and cracking, they too are subject to problems when incorrectly installed, glued or maintained. Besides cracks and roots, pipe shifting, poor sealing at the joints and low spots can all lead to sewer backups into your home.
