Septic Inspection
Video Septic Inspections
Our septic inspections are very thorough and are conducted using state of the art color sewer camera equipment. Our inspectors each have over five years experience. Our only business is the inspection and preservation of existing septic systems. Not only do we inspect the septic system, we also educate you about the proper care and use of the system. We will check the following conditions:

We will check for the following symptoms of a failing system:
- Slow draining pipes from house
- Persistent wet areas over the leach field
- Sewage surfacing in the area of the septic tank of the D-box
- Sewage seeping through the foundation
- Elevated liquid level in leach field
- Vegetation over leach field being greener or more lush than rest of yard

We will provide you with guidelines to help you maximize the life of the septic system.
