A sewer lateral inspection may be needed when selling or buying a property, meeting City requirements, investigating recurring sewer backups, checking for root intrusion, or documenting the condition of an existing sewer line.
The City of Morgan Hill requires private sewer lateral inspections as part of the property-sale process for applicable properties. The inspection must be performed by a Qualified Contractor and includes a CCTV inspection of the private sewer lateral.
Thomas Plumbing Inc. provides professional NASSCO sewer lateral inspections to help property owners complete the City process. We inspect the lateral, document its condition and submit the required inspection information for City review.
Before completing a property sale, applicable properties must complete the City’s utility inspection process. Start with the City’s online process, then schedule your sewer lateral inspection with a Qualified Contractor.
Thomas Plumbing Inc. uses professional sewer camera equipment to inspect the private sewer lateral from the property toward its connection with the public sewer system. The video inspection allows us to evaluate the condition of the pipe and identify visible defects that could affect its operation or compliance with City requirements.
During the inspection, we look for conditions such as root intrusion, cracks, displaced or open joints, deterioration, leaks, obstructions and other defects that may require attention.
If your sewer lateral inspection identifies repairs that are needed, the City of Morgan Hill may offer financial assistance through its Private Sewer Lateral Grant Program. Eligible property owners may receive 50% of the lowest contractor bid, up to a maximum grant of $5,000, subject to City approval and available funding.
Grant approval must be received from the City before construction begins. Property owners should complete the City's application process and receive a Letter of Approval before authorizing sewer lateral repair work.
Thomas Plumbing Inc. submits the required inspection information and CCTV footage for City review. Once the City verifies a passing inspection, it issues a Certificate of Compliance. The City states that the certificate is valid for 10 years.
If the inspection identifies defects that prevent the lateral from passing, repairs must be completed before a Certificate of Compliance can be issued. After repairs, a Qualified Contractor must perform another inspection and submit passing documentation to the City.
