Advanced Drains and Underground Solutions Offers Second Opinions as Sewer Inspection Failures Rise

With sewer lateral failures delaying home sales, Advanced Drains and Underground Solutions offers second opinions to verify inspection findings.

SPRINGFIELD, PA, UNITED STATES, July 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Advanced Drains and Underground Solutions is drawing attention to an increase in sewer lateral inspection failures linked to recent changes in inflow and infiltration (I&I) testing requirements. These failures are disrupting real estate transactions and leading to unexpected repair recommendations. The company is offering professional second opinion inspections to confirm test results and identify the most appropriate next steps.

Sewer Lateral Inspections Now a Key Step in Property Transfers
Sewer lateral inspections are now a common requirement during home sales in many cities and towns. These inspections check the condition of the pipe that connects a home's plumbing to the public sewer system.
As part of the process, I&I testing is used to find out if stormwater or groundwater is entering the system through cracks, broken joints, or worn-out pipes. Preventing this excess water helps protect the sewer system and the environment. For this reason, many homeowners are now required to complete these inspections before a property can be sold.

Updated Testing Methods Leading to Higher Failure Rates
Recent changes to I&I testing methods have made the standards stricter. Even small cracks or minor pipe defects that previously passed inspection may now cause a failure. As a result, more homes are being flagged during the inspection process. In many cases, property sales are delayed until repairs or pipe replacements are completed, which can be both costly and time-consuming.

Second Opinions Help Verify Results and Prevent Unnecessary Work
Due to the rise in failed inspections, second opinions are becoming an important part of the process. Advanced Drains and Underground Solutions provides follow-up inspections using high-quality video cameras and accurate diagnostic tools.
These second evaluations can help confirm whether repairs are truly necessary or if the original inspection results were overstated. In many situations, this helps property owners avoid unnecessary digging or full pipe replacement when simpler solutions may be available.

Navigating Inspection Outcomes During Real Estate Closings
Sewer inspections often influence the progress and outcome of real estate closings. For both buyers and sellers, understanding the results is essential to avoid delays and unexpected issues.
Clear and accurate reporting supports fair decisions during negotiations. When inspection findings are unclear or disputed, a second opinion can provide valuable clarity. This service helps guarantee that any recommended work is based on verified data rather than assumptions or incomplete assessments.
By offering reliable second opinions, Advanced Drains and Underground Solutions plays an important role in keeping property sales on track.
