Before you call
The questions that matter most.
01When should I schedule a septic inspection?
Before a real estate closing, when the system history is unclear, or when you notice odors, wet areas, slow drains, or backups. An inspection replaces guesswork with a documented condition report.
02Do you inspect before recommending a repair?
Yes. The goal is to locate the actual failure before deciding what to repair. That may include a visual septic assessment, system testing, or a sewer camera inspection depending on the symptoms.
03What happens after the inspection?
We walk you through the findings and identify what needs attention now, what can wait, and whether a repair is appropriate. If permits or municipal coordination are needed, we explain that up front.
Get a clear next step
