A standard home inspection does not include the sewer line. It covers the roof, foundation, electrical, HVAC, and visible plumbing — but the underground pipe that carries all of your home’s wastewater to the municipal system is left completely unexamined. That’s a significant gap, because sewer line problems are among the most expensive repairs a homeowner can face.
Eagle Eye Inspections provides dedicated pre-purchase sewer camera inspections for Saskatchewan homebuyers and their realtors. We inspect the main sewer line from the home’s cleanout to the city connection, document everything on HD video, and provide a written condition report you can use during negotiations. Our goal is simple: make sure you know what’s underground before you sign.
We inspect the full length of the main sewer line from the home’s cleanout to the municipal connection. Our HD camera examines the pipe for: tree root intrusion at joints and cracks, pipe cracks and fractures from ground movement or age, offset or displaced joints, bellied or sagging sections where waste collects, grease buildup and mineral deposits, corrosion in older metal pipes, and signs of previous repairs or patches. We document the pipe material, overall condition, and any defects with their precise location.
What You Receive
Every pre-purchase sewer inspection from Eagle Eye Inspections includes: a real-time walkthrough of findings so you understand the condition as we inspect, a complete HD video recording for your records, a written condition report documenting defects with location and severity, and clear recommendations on whether the line needs cleaning, repair, monitoring, or no action. This report is designed to be shared with your realtor, home inspector, or lawyer during the transaction process.
When to Schedule Your Pre-Purchase Inspection
The ideal time is during your inspection contingency period, alongside your standard home inspection. This gives you time to review the findings, discuss them with your realtor, and factor the sewer line condition into your offer or negotiation. We can often coordinate with your home inspector to complete both inspections on the same day.
For Realtors
If you represent buyers in Saskatchewan, recommending a pre-purchase sewer inspection protects your clients and strengthens your due diligence process. If you represent sellers, a clean sewer report removes a common point of renegotiation and demonstrates transparency. Eagle Eye Inspections works with Saskatchewan realtors regularly and provides professional reports formatted for real estate transactions.
