A neglected or failing septic tank can lead to serious damage like sewage backups, foul odours, slow drains, and even water pooling on your property. At John The Plumber Orleans, we offer professional septic tank inspection services to help homeowners avoid costly repairs and ensure the long-term performance of their septic systems.
Whether you’re dealing with a full septic tank, buying a new home, or it’s simply time for routine maintenance, our team of licensed professionals is just a phone call away. We proudly serve Orleans and surrounding communities with thorough inspections, and top-quality service.
Every septic tank inspection begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your entire system. We carefully examine your septic tank, drain field, and septic system components using specialized equipment to identify potential risks, system failures, or signs of solid waste buildup.
From sludge accumulation to damaged outlet baffles, we assess every part of your property’s septic system. We also consider factors like water usage, soil type, and past maintenance to offer a clear picture of your system’s health.
Our team looks for warning signs like slow drains, sewage backups, toilet clogs or water pooling around the tank. Our goal is to provide a detailed report of our findings and recommend the best course of action whether it’s pumping, cleaning, repairs, or long-term plumbing maintenance.
In addition to basic tank checks, we offer comprehensive inspections for homeowners, sellers, buyers, and home inspectors in need of a comprehensive home inspection.
Whether you’re preparing to list a home, buying a property with a septic system, or completing a routine check, we ensure the system is up to code and functioning properly. We also help ensure compliance with all Ottawa area and provincial regulations.
Our inspections are extremely helpful in identifying potential concerns, maintaining property value, and preventing future issues before they turn into costly repairs.
A septic inspection often reveals when it’s time for septic tank pumping or septic tank cleaning. Most septic tanks require pumping every 3 to 5 years to prevent excessive sludge from causing serious damage to the system.
If your tank is full, we’ll remove built-up waste, inspect for cracks or leaks, and restore normal function. This proactive step can help you avoid major septic repairs down the road. We always follow local regulations and industry best practices for safe, efficient service.
After your inspection, we offer septic services designed to keep your system running efficiently. Our custom maintenance plans include regular inspection services, septic pumping, and performance checks of key components like the drain field and outlet baffles.
Proper maintenance helps prevent system failures, reduce potential problems, and keep your household wastewater flowing properly. With our help, you’ll avoid plumbing emergency repairs and enjoy greater peace of mind.
With decades of combined experience, our licensed plumbers have worked on thousands of septic systems throughout Orleans and the Ottawa area. We know how to identify potential risks early and address them before they escalate into serious damage.
We stay up to date on local regulations and use top-tier tools for every job. Whether it’s part of a home inspection or routine maintenance, we ensure every tank inspection is done right the first time.
