Not Present Smoke Detector: Final Comments This home is in very good shape with just a few exceptions. A licensed plumber is recommended to clean out the main drain and basement floor drain to the street. I suspect that roots from the Magnolia tree in the front yard have grown into the drain tiles leading to the street causing slow drainage of the system. The sump pumps BOTH need to be replaced very soon. The licensed plumber should also fix the slow leak where the hallway toilet connects to the main drain. I would also have the stucco on the chimney inspected by a licensed stucco company. The driveway is in need of sealing at the very least. It is recommended that a licensed asphalt company estimate the cost of repair and sealing of the driveway.
