Obtaining a septic inspection before a sale or transfer of property is recommended and sometimes required before purchase.
A septic system inspection will help to protect the value of the buyer’s investment by ensuring that the system is functioning properly as well as protecting the environment thru guaranteeing sewage is being handled properly.
Inspection reports start at $100

Locate, Uncover & Pump Tank plus a drop camera inspection
We will locate the septic tank and access point. The tank is then opened and the liquid level is checked, which may indicate if the tank is leaking or if it is overfull. As long as the level is normal, then water is introduced to the system to make sure the water is flowing from the house to the tank, and then from the tank to the absorption area. The liquid level should not rise in the tank and there should be no surfacing effluent over any portion of the system.
Next, the tank is pumped down to check for backflow from the absorption area, which indicates if the absorption area is absorbing the wastewater that was introduced. The flow from the house to the tank is checked to make sure everything is connected to the system, and can indicate if there may be blockages in the house plumbing or in the sewer line between the house and the tank.
Our drop camera system checks the conditions of the tank, and checks the inlet and outlet as well as other components of the system. The daylight viewable display gives us a crisp and detailed HD video for a full report of your septic system and drain pipes. This allows us to view any potential problems. You will also be provided a detailed report of work done with pictures.
