Scope and report
Every scope is one camera run, a written report with stills, and a video link. The price follows how we get into the pipe.
A cleanout we can reach without moving anything heavy. Camera run to the street or the tank.
We pull one toilet, run the camera through the closet bend, and reset the toilet with a new wax ring.
A second sewer line, or a run past 100 feet to the main or a septic tank.
We text the written price before the van leaves, and the invoice matches it.
Fees
Six questions, answered before you book.
How we get into the pipe: a cleanout, or a toilet to pull. How much pipe there is to run: a second line or a long run takes longer. Whether you want the problem located, with a mark and a depth, as well as reported.
The price covers the visit, the camera run, the written report with stills and the video link. It doesn't cover cleaning, a repair, digging, or a permit. Those get their own written price, after the report.
One technician finds the access, runs the camera to the street or the tank, and records the run. The visit fee is the scope price; it isn't credited toward a repair, because we don't sell repairs on a buyer's scope.
We scope Monday to Friday and on Saturday morning. A Saturday scope costs the same as a weekday one. We don't take night calls: for a backup tonight, call a plumber with a night line.
Before the van leaves. We text the written price once we have the address and how we'll get in, and the invoice matches it. If the camera finds more to look at on the day, we ask before we add anything.
At the visit, by card, or by invoice for an inspector or agent who booked for a client. The price in the text is the price due.
