What We Typically Find on Sewer Scope Inspection in Cypress Hills

Sewer scope inspections in Cypress Hills examine the original cast-iron lateral lines under 1900-1930 attached row houses. Recurring findings: tree-root intrusion at every cast-iron joint past the property line where the mature street trees have penetrated old hub-and-spigot connections, bellies along the lateral where settling on the moraine ridge has pulled the pipe out of grade, offset joints from ground movement, internal scale reducing effective diameter, and grease and food-debris accumulation in the lateral when the home has had multiple unit occupancies over time. Sewer-line replacement runs $10,000-$25,000 in NYC; the camera scope catches problems before closing. Inspection scope includes the basement clean-out to the curb-tap connection.
