Georgia's red Piedmont clay holds water and moves with the seasons, and that movement can crack clay pipe and shift joints. Older Atlanta neighborhoods often have clay laterals running under large oaks and pines, so root intrusion is a frequent finding on camera. Some post-war subdivisions used Orangeburg pipe. South Georgia's sandier coastal plain has its own settling problems, and septic systems are common outside the cities. Sewer Inspect Pros can book a sewer camera inspection for a home in Georgia that records the full line from cleanout to main or tank.

Sewer Camera Inspection FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Sewer Camera Inspection

Common questions about Sewer Camera Inspection in Georgia — answered by our local plumbers.

Talk to a real person

How long does a sewer scope take?

A typical residential scope takes about an hour, sometimes less. Extra time goes into finding or opening an access point, clearing a blockage so the camera can pass, or locating the line from above. Long laterals, commercial mains and lines with several branches take longer.

Should I get a sewer scope before buying a house?

On most older homes, and on any lot with large trees near the sewer route, it is worth doing. A general home inspection does not look inside the buried line, and sewer replacement can be one of the larger repair bills a new owner faces. Schedule the scope inside your inspection contingency so the findings can still shape your offer.

What does an offset joint mean on my inspection report?

An offset means two pipe sections no longer line up at the joint, so one edge sticks into the flow. Soil movement, settling, roots and freeze-thaw cycles can all cause it. A slight offset may cause no trouble, while a larger one catches paper, lets roots in and can stop a cleaning cable. The report should list how far down the line each offset sits.

What is Orangeburg pipe, and why do inspectors flag it?

Orangeburg is a fiber pipe made from wood pulp and coal tar pitch, installed widely from the 1940s into the 1970s. After a few decades underground it starts to soften, blister and flatten under the weight of the soil, and on camera it often looks oval. Because it keeps deforming, most owners plan to replace it rather than patch it.

Are roots in the sewer line a reason to walk away from a house?

Not by themselves. Light roots at a joint or two are common in older lines and can often be cleared, with the joints sealed later by a liner or spot repair. What matters more is whether roots have cracked or displaced the pipe, how many joints are affected and what the pipe is made of. Get a repair quote based on the footage before deciding.
