Commercial Septic Tank Inspection

Septic Tank Inspection

If you have purchased a new house or are selling one, getting your septic tank inspected is important. It provides valuable information to buyers, and most should get one to understand the condition of the property they are acquiring and how its sanitary system will hold up. An inspection from our team will reveal necessary repairs or even a failing system—issues that can be costly and stressful. Some banks even require a septic inspection before approving a mortgage. This process helps identify potential drainage problems before they worsen. Whether you’re a buyer or a seller, we’ve got you covered. Our skilled staff can complete the inspection thoroughly and efficiently, typically within two to four hours, depending on the size and condition of the tank.

How Often Should You Get a Septic Inspection?

Regular septic inspections are crucial for maintaining a healthy system. Homeowners should schedule an inspection every 3 to 5 years as part of routine maintenance. If your household has higher water usage or your tank is older, more frequent inspections may be necessary. Additionally, it’s recommended to get an inspection before buying or selling a home, after experiencing drainage issues, or following extreme weather events that could affect your septic system.
