Purchasing a home with a private well necessitates a thorough well and septic inspection. This guide provides detailed insights into the process, ensuring a safe and sustainable water source for prospective homeowners.

What Is a Well Inspection?


A well inspection evaluates the condition and functionality of a well system, assessing water quality, system components, and adherence to local health standards.

Why Is It Crucial?


It ensures the well delivers safe, potable water and functions efficiently, safeguarding the health of residents and the value of the property.

Key Components of a Well Inspection

Our approach to water well and septic tank inspections is thorough and systematic:

2. System Components Check: Evaluating the pump, pressure tank, and related equipment such as the septic tank for functionality.

3. Well Yield Test: Assessing the well's ability to maintain water flow over a set period.

4. Physical Inspection: Examining the wellhead, casing, and cap for integrity and proper sealing.

Deep Dive into Water Quality Testing

Common Contaminants: These include biological pathogens, chemical pollutants, and minerals that affect water taste, smell, and safety.

PROFESSIONAL

Extremely thorough and professional. Was on time and had every tool and testing device needed to make sure his inspection was exhaustive. When finished Kaleb helped me understand his findings in a layman way. Even though it was all on the report, the 'cliffs notes" summary was nice. He even gave advice for how to address findings.

Eric Huff

Edmond, OK

Highly REcommended

The entire process from setting up the inspection, setting a date/time and completing the inspection was very good. Requesting the inspection and scheduling a date/time was very easy. The best was the actual report itself. Dale did a very thorough job of evaluating the entire home, taking a lot of pictures, especially of the areas that needed to be addressed. I loved the summary report that allowed me to focus in on the specific areas of concern. The detailed report was very thorough and great to have on file. I received both the same day the actual inspection was completed which I thought was exceptional service. Dale came highly recommended to me and I would highly recommend him as well.
