Septic Inspection in Truman

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.

Truman is a small Martin County farm town of early-1900s homes. Housing here runs to early-1900s farm-town homes, across the town core.

Septic systems in Martin County

Martin County Planning and Zoning issues septic permits and publishes an SSTS Property Transaction Form. On that form the seller attaches a Certificate of Compliance or inspection form for a compliant system, and for a winter transaction (December 1 to April 1) the transfer can proceed if a licensed inspector's compliance inspection is filed by June 15. We camera-scope the sewer line from the house and coordinate the licensed SSTS 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 is the Martin County SSTS Property Transaction Form?
It is the county form used at a sale: the seller attaches a Certificate of Compliance or inspection form, or, for a winter transaction, the transfer can proceed with a compliance inspection filed by June 15. We scope the sewer line and coordinate the licensed inspection in one booking. Ask your agent whether the purchase agreement sets a timeline for the inspection.
Do you cover Truman?
Yes — within our Mankato base's range, and the older stock gets a full local inspection.
