DrainReport
Read full descriptionHide full description
DrainReport turns a sewer camera inspection into a report your homeowner actually understands — and says yes to. Run your push camera down the line. When you see a problem, photograph the monitor, tap the defect, and type the footage off the reel counter. DrainReport pins every finding onto a single footage strip from the access point to the end of the run, color-graded by severity, so the homeowner can see exactly how bad it is and where. Then preview and send a clean, branded PDF: the footage strip, a photo of each defect, your recommended fix, and an overall assessment — on your company letterhead, ready to email before you leave the job. YOU DIAGNOSE — THE APP DOCUMENTS DrainReport never guesses. You pick each defect from a plumber's list, set its severity, and approve the recommended action. Every default is editable. It's a documentation and estimating tool — not an automated diagnosis. BUILT FOR THE TRUCK • Works with any push/CCTV camera — photograph the monitor, no special hardware • For drain and sewer plumbers, and home inspectors who offer sewer scope inspections • Preview the whole report before you send it • Fully offline — no signal needed in a crawlspace or basement • No account, no cloud — your inspections stay on your phone • A footage strip the homeowner instantly gets • Branded homeowner PDF with your company, license, and logo DEFECTS COVERED Root intrusion · offset / separated joint · crack · fracture · belly / sag · infiltration · grease & scale · protruding tap · hole / void · broken / collapsed pipe · deteriorated pipe · blockage · plus free-form notes FREE & PRO Build unlimited inspections and export 2 reports free. DrainReport Pro is a one-time purchase — no subscription — for unlimited reports, your company branding, and watermark-free PDFs. — DrainReport is a documentation and estimating tool for licensed drain and plumbing professionals. It does not perform a NASSCO-certified pipeline condition assessment. The findings and recommendations in every report reflect the on-site judgment of the inspecting plumber, not an automated diagnosis by the app. Before authorizing major excavation or pipe replacement, homeowners are advised to obtain independent confirmation of the recommended repair.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Xscope at none against DrainReport's 1. Xscope also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
