Hi.

I just got the sewer inspection report back and it doesn’t look good, but maybe it is something ok and I got worried.

Would love some opinions and recommendations on what to do, I have a inspection contingency but it is a great deal.

Ask for sewer replacement?

The house is from 1915 recently remodeled, duplex in saint louis.

Sewer lateral inspection

Performed a sewer lateral inspection starting at both soil stacks viewing towards the yard vent. The lateral is cast iron, PVC, and clay pipe. The PVC portion is in operable and serviceable condition. No damage, deformities, blockages or anything abnormal noted during the inspection. The cast iron portion has several areas where cracks are present. They areas are marked with tape on the basement floor and are in need of repair/ replacement. The scope of work should be performed by a licensed plumbing contractor. On one side, the cast iron has an obstruction. Cabling Recommend Could not inspect to the yard vent in the clay portion due to an obstruction. Recommend cabling the entire lateral and reinspect for damage in the clay and cast iron.
