How the Job Works

  1. Ask what prompted the check

    We ask about the home's age, known issues and if you are buying.

  2. Inspect water and drain lines

    We check visible pipes, test pressure, run fixtures and look at the water heater.

  3. Camera the sewer line

    When needed, a camera goes through the main line to show cracks or roots.

  4. Explain what we found

    We walk you through what is urgent, what can wait and what is fine.
