Two situations we inspect for
1. Buyers, sellers, and realtors
Tuolumne County has residential on-site septic inspection requirements that apply at property transfer. Whether it's a formal county-required inspection or a buyer-side due diligence check, you want it done by someone who does this every week — not a general home inspector taking a guess.
Realtors: we work on escrow timelines and deliver clear written reports with photos. Tell us the close date and we'll build backwards.
2. Homeowners who just want to know
Bought a home a few years ago and never had the system looked at? Noticed something weird? A one-time health check is cheap insurance against a five-figure surprise later.
What's in the report
- Tank condition — walls, baffles, water level, evidence of past overflow
- Drainfield performance — effluent levels in lines, wet spots, visible failures
- Distribution box and pump chamber (if present and accessible)
- Setback observations — well, structures, property lines, waterways
- Photos of every relevant condition, good and bad
- Recommended repairs with estimated cost ranges
Predictable turnaround, clear written reports, and honest answers to buyer questions before they blow up an escrow. Call us and let's get on your regular list.
What we don't do
We don't manufacture problems to sell repairs. If the system is fine, we say so — in writing. If it has issues, we quantify them so you can negotiate from facts.
