Septic Inspection for Home Sale

5 septic companies in our directory are listed as offering septic inspection for home sale.

A real-estate or point-of-sale septic inspection is a closer look than a standard home inspection gives a septic system: locating and uncovering the tank, checking sludge and scum levels, running water to check the drainfield's absorption, and reviewing any permit or as-built records that exist for the system.

It's most often requested before buying or selling a home with a septic system, since a general home inspector typically doesn't dig up and inspect the tank itself. Whether the buyer or seller is required to pay for one, and whether it's required at all, varies by state and sometimes by county; see our state-by-state septic rules reference for what we've been able to confirm.

Our septic inspection checklist for home buyers and our guide to buying a house with a septic system both walk through what to ask for and check before you close.
