Service Overview
Comprehensive System Evaluation for Preventive Maintenance
Regular inspections catch small problems before they become expensive failures. Advanced Septic Services provides certified inspections that assess every component of your system, determining maintenance needs and identifying potential issues early.
How It Works
Our thorough inspection process covers your entire system:
- Locate and safely access septic tank and distribution components
- Measure sludge and scum layers to determine pumping requirements
- Inspect baffles, filters, tees, and pipes for damage or blockages
- Evaluate drain field for saturation, odors, or surfacing effluent
- Provide written report with detailed photos and maintenance recommendations
Advanced diagnostics available including camera inspection of pipes, dye testing for leaks, and drain field percolation testing for systems showing warning signs.
Key Benefits
Prevent Costly Failures – Regular inspections catch issues while they're still minor and
inexpensive to fix. Catching a cracked baffle during inspection costs far less than repairing sewage damage
from system failure.
Extend System Life – Systems inspected regularly last 10 to 15 years longer than neglected
systems. Professional monitoring ensures components are maintained and replaced before failure.
Peace of Mind – Know your system's actual condition instead of guessing. Inspections provide
documentation of system health for your records.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How often should I have my system inspected?
A: Every 1 to 3 years for most residential systems. Annual inspections recommended for systems over 20
years old, properties with high water usage, or if you've noticed any warning signs.
Q: What's included in the inspection report?
A: Our report includes sludge measurements, component condition assessment, photos, maintenance
recommendations, estimated time until pumping is needed, and notes on any issues requiring attention.
Q: Can you inspect my system if I don't know where the tank is?
A: Yes. We can locate buried tanks using probing or electronic locating equipment. We'll mark the location
for future access.
