A thorough, honest look at your whole septic system — for peace of mind, a home sale, or a purchase you don't want to regret.
A septic system is easy to ignore until it fails — and by then the repair is far bigger. A thorough inspection tells you exactly where things stand before there's a problem. Bruce Bunch brings 32 years of septic experience to every inspection, whether you're buying, selling, or just want peace of mind.
Buying a home with a septic system is a real risk if you don't know its condition; a failing system can cost thousands to replace. Selling one goes smoother when you can show it's sound. And for homeowners, an inspection catches the small problems — a corroding baffle, a tank overdue for pumping — while they're still cheap to fix.
As a Georgia Licensed Master Plumber, Bruce inspects the whole system and tells you what he finds in plain language, not jargon. You get an honest assessment of what's fine, what needs attention now, and what can wait — with no pressure and no upselling.
An inspection is a small cost that heads off the biggest surprise on the property.
Bruce checks the tank, components and field — not just a quick glance in the lid.
Know a system's true condition before you buy, not after you own the problem.
Show buyers a sound system and keep your sale moving.
Small faults found now stay small — and cheap — to fix.
A meaningful septic inspection is more than lifting the lid and looking in. Bruce checks the tank's levels and structural condition, the inlet and outlet baffles, the effluent filter, and the signs of how the drain field is handling flow. Each of those tells part of the story of the system's health.
The point isn't just to find problems — it's to give you a clear picture of the whole system's condition and what to expect from it. Is the tank due for pumping? Is a baffle starting to go? Is the field showing early signs of overload? Those are the questions an inspection should answer honestly.
For buyers and sellers, that honest picture is everything. Bruce gives you findings you can act on and understand, in plain language, without the pressure to pay for repairs you don't need. Whether the system is sound or needs work, you'll know exactly where you stand.
A septic inspection from Bruce looks at:
Absolutely. A septic system can be one of the most expensive things on a property to replace, and you can't see its condition from the surface. An inspection before you buy tells you what you're really getting. It's a small cost against a very large potential surprise.
Having the system looked at every few years — and any time you notice slow drains, odors, or wet spots — is a sound habit. Regular inspection catches small problems while they're cheap. Bruce can tell you a reasonable interval for your specific system and household.
