Professional Septic System Inspections
If your home or commercial property uses a septic system, regular inspection is key to preventing failures, backups, and environmental hazards. Our InterNACHI Certified inspectors use proven methods to evaluate every major component of the septic system—from the tank to the drain field.
We look for signs of deterioration, improper installation, slow draining, unusual odors, and backups. Our detailed reports help you make informed decisions, whether you’re buying a rural home, performing annual maintenance, or dealing with signs of a problem.
Common septic issues we detect include:
-
Cracked or leaking septic tanks
-
Tree root intrusion in drain fields
-
Improper waste levels
-
System overloads and failures
-
Evidence of poor maintenance
With Capital Area Inspections, you’ll get an honest, objective assessment that’s easy to understand—and tailored to the soil and conditions we know are common across the Austin area.
High-Definition Sewer Scope Inspections
Even homes connected to city sewer systems can suffer from major hidden problems. Our sewer scope inspections use high-resolution cameras to travel deep into your home’s main sewer line, identifying issues that could cost thousands if left untreated.
One of the most overlooked risks in Austin-area homes is damage caused by soil movement and tree root systems. Our inspectors know what to look for and how to document these issues clearly, giving buyers, sellers, and property owners the information they need to take the next step confidently.
What we look for during a sewer scope inspection:
-
Root intrusion
-
Pipe cracks or collapses
-
Offset or bellied pipes
-
Blockages or buildup
-
Aging or corroded materials
Sewer scope inspections are especially valuable in older homes, areas with clay or cast iron plumbing, or during real estate transactions when hidden sewer problems could delay a closing.
