[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have them checked out with a camera if possible. Sewer is easy to check. Water lines require more expensive cameras to get into tighter pipes.

If you wait for an emergency to replace lines, you will always pay 2-5 times more money.

Much cheaper to do it at your leisure. [/quote]

Do this.

My 20 year old condo TH development had a problem.  A maple tree planted too close to the storm sewer grew into the sewer and grew a root in it the size and shape of a small dolphin.  This was not a huge ancient tree.  It wasn't noticed and in a storm  a water backup flooded three townhouses' basements.  The condo had to pay for the tree to be fully removed from the ground.  And the storm sewer work.  The townhouses had to have remediation/basement cleanup at the owner's expense (which is rarely insured).

Not saying you need the insurance but be attentive to potential problems.  You know best about your lot and landscaping.

Our city allows solicitation for this kind of insurance with an intro/city letterhead.  But the company is something like SWLA.[/quote]
