Septic Inspection in Mound

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.

Mound is a Lake Minnetonka city of converted cottages on tight lakeshore lots. Housing here runs to converted lake cottages on tight lakeshore lots, across the lakeshore neighborhoods and the island-and-bay street grid.

Septic systems in Hennepin County

Hennepin County says that in the county, selling a home does not require a septic inspection, though sellers must disclose septic information under state law and many lenders ask for a compliance inspection. Dayton, Independence, Medina, Orono and Woodland run their own septic programs, so ask the city there. We camera-scope the sewer line from the house and coordinate the licensed SSTS compliance inspection when a lender or buyer wants one, as 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.
Does Hennepin County require a septic inspection to sell?
No. The county states that selling a home there does not require a septic inspection, though seller disclosure is required by state law and many lenders require a compliance inspection. Dayton, Independence, Medina, Orono and Woodland run their own programs. We scope the sewer line and coordinate an inspection if the lender asks.
Are Mound's converted cottages a special case?
Very much — seasonal cottages rebuilt into year-round homes often carry patchwork additions, marginal foundations and undersized mechanicals, and tight lakeshore lots make drainage toward the lake or the house the key read.
