Septic tank excavation and camera-guided sewer scope in Orange County NY
Overview

What to expect

A septic inspection is one of the most important - and most overlooked - components of a real estate transaction in rural areas. A failed septic system can cost $15,000 to $50,000 to replace.

We perform open-tank septic inspections using camera-guided sewer scoping. We excavate the tank to remove the cap(s), inspect the drain lines visually and with camera, and monitor drain field absorption.

When bundled with a home inspection, we can coordinate both on the same visit to save you time and money. We can also perform a standalone septic inspection at $500.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a septic inspection if the home is on municipal sewer?
No. A septic inspection only applies to properties with a private septic system. If the home is connected to public sewer, this service is not applicable.
How do I know if a property has a septic system?
Your real estate agent or the listing documentation should indicate whether the property uses public sewer or a private septic system. We can also help verify.
What happens if the septic system fails inspection?
If we find significant issues, you can use the findings to negotiate repairs with the seller, request a price reduction, or walk away from the deal.
