Septic System Inspection: A Must-Have Service to protect yourself When Buying a Home

A septic system inspection is an essential service when purchasing a home that relies on a septic system. The cost of repairing or replacing a failing septic system can be substantial, and as a potential homeowner, it is critical you know the system’s condition before finalizing your purchase. Unfortunately, we get calls from new homeowners who only discover severe septic issues within the first few months of moving in, leaving them with an unexpected, urgent, and costly project just to continue living in their homes.

While septic systems are built to last for many years, various factors can significantly shorten their lifespan. Overuse—such as accommodating more people than the system was designed for—earthquakes, and improper disposal of items down drains (anything other than human waste and toilet paper) can all contribute to premature failure.

For your peace of mind, scheduling a septic system inspection during escrow ensures you are fully informed about its current condition and any potential concerns. With this knowledge, you can move forward with confidence, knowing the exact state of the system before making such a significant investment.
