Inspection FAQ

Who typically orders a real estate septic inspection?
Buyers, sellers, listing agents, buyer’s agents, and escrow officers. Note your closing date or contingency deadline in the preferred timing field — especially for Paso Robles and Templeton transactions.
Is pumping the same as an inspection?
No. Pumping removes solids from the tank. An inspection evaluates system condition for a transaction. Many sales need one or both — tell us what escrow requires.
How fast can you schedule a septic inspection in SLO County?
It depends on route capacity and your city. Same-week windows are sometimes available; call if your contingency or closing date is tight so we can prioritize.
Do North County and South County homes need different reports?
The goal is the same — clear documentation for escrow — but access, tank type, and property layout vary. Share the address area (e.g. Paso Robles, Nipomo) and any known system details on the form.
