What affects the cost of Pre-Purchase Plumbing Inspection
Frequently asked questions
Is a pre-purchase plumbing inspection the same as a home inspection?
No, a standard home inspection typically provides a general overview and may not include specialized plumbing diagnostics like a sewer camera inspection or detailed water pressure tests. A dedicated plumbing inspection goes much deeper.
How long does a pre-purchase plumbing inspection take?
Typically, a pre-purchase plumbing inspection for a standard single-family home in San Diego takes between 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on the property's size, age, and complexity of its plumbing system. Add more time if a sewer line camera inspection is performed.
What if major plumbing issues are found during the inspection?
If significant issues are discovered, the inspection report provides detailed documentation you can use to negotiate with the seller for repairs, a price reduction, or to potentially back out of the purchase agreement if the problems are too severe.
Do I need to be present during the inspection?
While not mandatory, it's highly recommended that you or your real estate agent be present. This allows you to ask questions directly to the plumber and gain a better understanding of any identified issues.
Do you work weekends?
We keep flexible hours, including evenings and weekends where we can.
