Septic Inspection in Henderson

Septic inspection for homes on a private septic system (SSTS). We camera-scope the sewer line from the house toward the tank, looking for roots, sags, cracks and separated joints, and we coordinate the licensed SSTS compliance inspection through our licensed partner, so it is one booking and one schedule for you. Many Minnesota counties require a compliance inspection when a home with a septic system is sold.

Henderson is a historic Minnesota River town below the bluffs. Housing here runs to historic river-town homes below the bluffs, across the historic valley core.

Septic systems in Sibley County

Sibley County's septic page says a compliance inspection is required any time a tract with a septic system is sold or transferred where the transaction needs an electronic certificate of real estate value. A Certification As To Septic System Status form must be submitted at recording, with details in Zoning Ordinance section 300. Inspections must be done by a licensed contractor. We camera-scope the sewer line from the house and coordinate the licensed compliance inspection, so it is one booking.

Questions

Common questions.

What does your septic inspection include?
Two parts. We run a camera through the building sewer from inside the house toward the tank and record its condition: roots, cracks, sags, separated joints and blockages. We also coordinate the licensed SSTS compliance inspection of the tank and soil treatment area, so the whole septic picture is booked and scheduled together.
Is a septic inspection required when a house sells in Minnesota?
It depends on the county. Many Minnesota counties require a compliance inspection at the time of sale; others require one only in shoreland areas or leave it to the lender. Ask the county's environmental services office early, because a failing system can change the terms of a sale.
Can I book the septic inspection with the home inspection?
Yes. Book it as an add-on and we schedule the line scope and the compliance inspection around your home inspection, so the results land inside your inspection window.
What are signs of septic trouble?
Slow drains throughout the house, gurgling, sewage odors indoors or in the yard, wet or unusually green spots over the drainfield, and backups in the lowest fixtures. Any of these calls for a scope and a full evaluation before closing.
What does Sibley County require at sale for septic?
The county says a compliance inspection is required when a tract with a septic system is sold or transferred where an ECRV is needed, and a Certification As To Septic System Status form goes in at recording. We scope the sewer line and coordinate the licensed inspection so it is one booking.
Is flooding a factor in Henderson?
River-valley ground makes flood history, grading and basement moisture the items to read carefully, and we do.
