Sewer Scope Inspection in Owatonna, MN.
Sewer line repairs are one of the most expensive surprises a new homeowner can face — and the only way to know what's down there is to put a camera in the line. We run a high-resolution sewer scope from the cleanout (or pulled toilet) to the city main, recording the whole thing.

Catch the silent killer
Root intrusion, bellies, cracks, offsets, and Orangeburg pipe — none of these show up in a visual inspection. The camera does.
Recorded video
You get the full inspection video in your report — no take-our-word-for-it. Useful for negotiating repairs or sharing with a plumber.
Older Owatonna homes
Pre-1970 homes often have clay tile, cast iron, or Orangeburg laterals — all common failure points. We see these issues every week.
Bundled with inspection
Sewer scope is run on the same day as your home inspection and findings go in the same report. No separate appointment.
Sewer Scope — common questions.
What is a sewer scope?
A video inspection of the sewer lateral — the pipe between your home and the city main. We push a high-res camera through and record the whole thing.
Do I need a sewer scope?
For any home built before 1980 — almost always yes. Older laterals fail. Newer homes get scoped to catch construction debris and grading issues.
How long does a sewer scope take?
30–45 minutes, run during your home inspection — same trip, same report.
What if you find a problem?
You get timestamped video plus a written summary, useful for negotiating repairs or getting plumber bids.
