Sewer Scope Inspections in Washington, D.C

November 1, 2025

A tiny crack, a root intrusion, or an unnoticed blockage silently gets worse until one day every drain in the house backs up at once. That is when homeowners realize the value of sewer scope inspections in Washington, D.C.


You know when water drains a little slower than usual, and you just shrug it off as no big deal? That is usually the first sign that something is wrong underground. Experts handle this by using a small high-definition camera pushed through the sewer line to inspect every inch of the pipe.


The video feed helps them identify cracks, corrosion, or buildup before it causes a full-blown backup. The process is clean, quick, and involves no digging unless repairs are needed afterward.


The good news about sewer scope inspections is that once the line is professionally cleared, you rarely have to worry about surprise blockages or hidden leaks again.


Many people still consider a DIY fix because they think a camera inspection is an unnecessary expense. But a professional service gives you clarity that a DIY approach can not. The right equipment, trained interpretation of the footage, and local knowledge of Baltimore’s older pipe systems give professionals an unbeatable edge.

I cannot say enough good things about Chris and his company! Chris came as a recommendation from a friend and did an amazing job with our new home inspection. I'm a first-time home-buyer and Chris was so great about explaining everything to me and how everything works. He is very skilled at his job and also a nice and friendly guy to be around. And on top of all of that, I think he charges a really reasonable price...and he got the report to us the same night! Thank you, Chris!

What a pleasure to have found a true professional! Chris had a warm, friendly, and outgoing personality from the first phone call to the end of the inspection. Chris is completely knowledgable on all aspects of a home and his attention to the smallest detail showed throughout the entire inspection. Chris also provided valuable suggestions/recommendations on items that might need to be repaired or replacement. Highly recommend 1st Choice Inspection Services!
