Sewer Line Repair in Stotts City, MO
The lateral leaving a house in Stotts City is the property owner’s out to the main. On solvent-welded plastic the material is rarely the problem, which makes how it was laid the question. There are 309 occupied homes here, and across all the housing the median build year is 1991 — the best single clue to what the pipe is made of and how it tends to fail.
In short
A lateral serving Stotts City housing of roughly 1991 is plastic, and plastic is effectively immune to corrosion and to root intrusion at the joint. What is left is geometry, which is what a camera survey actually measures.

What went in the ground around 1991
A lateral laid in Stotts City in that period is most likely PVC or ABS, solvent-welded, and effectively immune to corrosion and to roots at the joint. A repeated backup here points at fall and alignment, not material. More on plastic laterals.
What a camera survey should settle here
Solvent-welded pipe rarely fails at the joint, so the survey is measuring fall and looking for standing water. The full picture on plastic laterals.
