What a General Home Inspection Misses
Standard home inspections are visual and explicitly exclude the things that cost most: the sewer lateral, the condition of supply piping inside walls, and the real state of the water heater.
A dedicated plumbing inspection covers those. On an older Albuquerque property, knowing whether the supply is galvanised and whether the lateral is clay with root intrusion is worth considerably more than it costs.
- Documented Findings A written report with photographs, usable in a negotiation.
- Sewer Camera Option Lateral inspection added where the property's age warrants it.
- Prioritised Findings separated into safety, soon, and eventually — not one alarming list.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the same as a home inspection?
No. A general home inspection is visual and excludes the sewer lateral and in-wall piping. This is a dedicated plumbing assessment.
Do you camera the sewer line?
We can, and on older properties we would recommend it. Laterals are the most expensive surprise in an older home.
How long does it take?
Typically one to two hours depending on the size of the property and whether a camera survey is included.
Will I get something in writing?
Yes — a written report with photographs, which is genuinely useful in a purchase negotiation.
