Sewer Camera Inspection in Fort Collins: what's different here
Fort Collins' oldest neighborhoods, including Old Town, the areas around City Park and near the CSU campus, have some of the largest street trees on the Front Range, and many of the homes still have their original clay tile sewer laterals. Roots find their way into the joints, and basement floor drains back up as a result.
Because Fort Collins property owners are generally responsible for the service line from the house to the city main, a camera inspection is the best way to know what you own. It's especially worth doing before buying an older home near Old Town, and after any backup that returns within a year of cleaning.
Ask for the video and the locate marks. They make repair quotes comparable and help if you need to show a seller or insurer what was found.

Sewer Camera Inspection questions from Fort Collins homeowners
Does a Fort Collins home inspection include the sewer line?
Usually not. A sewer scope is a separate inspection, and it's strongly recommended for older homes with mature trees.
What if the camera finds roots but no break?
Roots can be cut and the line jetted; a follow-up inspection shows whether a repair such as lining is needed.
