System Location & Inspection in Ventura County
We find your tank and lines quickly, then show you what is inside them with a camera, so decisions are based on what is really there.
Inspections you can rely on
- Tank location by probing, site maps and county records, then electronic locating if needed
- Real-time video of lines from 2 to 12 inches in diameter
- Depth and position of any problem marked from the surface
- Saved footage for your records
- Written results for home sales and county requirements
We'll Find Your Septic Tank Without the Guesswork
Plenty of homeowners have no idea where their tank is. We start the traditional way, probing the ground and checking any site maps or county records. If the lids still will not turn up, we use an electronic locator to pinpoint them.
In the rare case where reaching a lid takes heavy equipment, we take extra care to protect your home and landscaping. Once we have found it, a riser means nobody has to search again.
Advanced Camera Inspections for Your Septic System
We use the Ridgid SeeSnake camera system to inspect septic and sewer lines in real time. The waterproof, high-resolution camera rides on a flexible rod that travels through pipes from 2 to 12 inches in diameter, even around corners, so we see the whole line, including sections under slabs and foundations.
- The full picture. The camera shows the inside of the pipe as it travels, not a guess from the outside.
- No guesswork on location. A radio transmitter in the camera head lets us mark the depth and position of any defect from the surface, so repairs start in the right spot.
- Permanent records. Footage can be saved and compared after cleaning or repairs to confirm the fix.
Identify Problems Before They Escalate
A camera inspection turns up the problems that cause slow drains and backups:
- Root intrusion
- Misaligned, broken, punctured, sagging or corroded pipe
- Grease buildup and leaks
- Obstructions
We recommend one if you have repeated backups, slow drains or clogs, and before you buy a home, so the sewer line does not turn into an expensive surprise after you move in. The same camera has even found lost jewelry and animals trapped in pipes.
