Why You Need a Certified Septic Inspector | Bynum & Sons Plumbing, Inc.

For the most part, a certified septic inspector is someone who has had some training and has been through some courses where they have to demonstrate their real-world experience in dealing with septic systems. There are not many people who can say that they have had any major roles in the field of plumbing or that they have been involved in some major building work where they actually cleaned up sludge or removed a section of sewage. But these are the people who you will usually look to when you are looking to hire someone for the job. A certified sewer inspection person will give you a professional report about what needs to be done with your sewage system.

There are some places where it can be confusing as to who the right person to call for an inspection of your septic is. Usually, you will find that your local city hall or the county planning department should be able to direct you to the right person to schedule an inspection of your septic system. Sometimes, though you may get referred to a certified sewer inspection company. When this happens, you are going to want to make sure that you are calling a company that has been around for a while and has a good reputation for doing quality work. You also want to make sure that they have a good track record of dealing with a variety of different contractors.

When it comes to testing your septic system, there are a couple of different ways that professionals do this test. They normally start out with the use of a borehole. This is a type of camera that is set up underground so that the professional can see into your basement or another area that is underground. Then they will use the computer software to determine the amount of sludge that is in your system. This information is helpful so that they can suggest the best course of action for the maintenance of your system. These tests are usually performed several times per year.

If your sewage system or septic tank has serious issues that need to be addressed, then your safest bet is going to be to hire a certified sewer inspection professional. Your warranty may include the testing of your sewage system or septic tank. In many cases, your warranty will cover any damage done to the property as a result of a problem in either of these systems.

A qualified sewer expert should be willing to let you know if your system is leaking or not. Most people don’t realize that a septic system needs to be pumped at least once a year. There are some homeowners that think that their sewage works fine until it gets into the ground. Once it gets in the ground it has to go somewhere, and that usually means going down into a basement. Having an inspector look at your septic system before any pumping is necessary, will help ensure that it doesn’t end up causing damage in your home.

Don’t take chances when it comes to your home. Take advantage of the services that a certified sewer inspection can offer you. These inspections are typically done by professionals that have plenty of experience dealing with sewage issues. Make sure you take advantage of their expertise.
