Septic System Inspections for Homeowners, Property Buyers & Real Estate Agents Clearwater Septic and Pumping, Charlotte NC

Who This Is For:

Homeowners

Routine health checks to prevent surprises and protect the drain field.

Buyers

Independent septic due-diligence before you close avoids costly repairs later.

    • Locate tank, lids/risers; assess levels

    • Inspect baffles/tees, tank integrity, visible lines

    • Functional checks (if applicable): pump, floats, alarm, control panel

    • Drain field observations (saturation, surfacing, vegetation)

    • Findings report with recommendations, and repair/pricing guidance

  • Most inspections do not require pumping to evaluate basic function. If solids levels prevent a proper visual, we’ll recommend pumping so we can fully assess baffles and tank condition. (Pumping, if needed, is quoted separately.)

  • Typical septic inspection pricing ranges ~$200–$900 depending on system type, access, and whether it’s a real-estate transaction (often more detailed). You’ll receive an upfront quote before scheduling.
