What is a NASSCO Certified Plumber?

What Is a NASSCO-Certified Plumber?

If you’ve been told you need a dye test or a sewer camera inspection before selling your home in Pittsburgh, you may have heard the term NASSCO-certified plumber. But what does that mean—and why is it important? At Revelation Plumbing, we’re proud to be fully NASSCO-certified, giving you the confidence that your inspection and repairs meet the highest industry standards.

What Does NASSCO Certification Mean?

NASSCO stands for the National Association of Sewer Service Companies, the organization that sets the nationwide standard for sewer inspection, evaluation, and reporting. NASSCO certification ensures that a plumber or sewer contractor has completed specialized training to inspect, code, and report the condition of sewer pipes using consistent, industry-approved methods.

To maintain certification, plumbers must pass a comprehensive exam and re-certify every three years. This ensures inspectors stay up to date with evolving standards and technology.

Why NASSCO Certification Matters for Dye Testing & Sewer Camera Inspections

Many Pittsburgh-area boroughs now require dye testing and sewer camera inspections to be performed by a NASSCO-certified contractor—especially at the time of property sale. Municipalities like Upper St. Clair, Bethel Park, Baldwin, Brentwood, and others have adopted strict compliance rules that only accept reports from certified professionals.

When you hire a NASSCO-certified plumber like Revelation Plumbing, you’re getting more than a quick visual check. We use high-quality camera equipment to record the entire length of your sewer lateral, then code each section according to NASSCO standards.

This creates a clear, detailed report that your borough’s engineer can easily review and approve.

Pairing this with a dye test—where a safe, non-staining dye is introduced into your stormwater drains to check for illegal connections—ensures your property meets both stormwater and sewer line compliance requirements.
