Important Septic System Tips When Buying A House
There are many factors to consider when purchasing a new home, such as the size of the kitchen, the location it is in, and the amount of available storage space it has. Unfortunately, one aspect of homes that most home buyers neglect to inspect is their septic system.
A home septic system can often be a wise and cost-effective choice when compared to municipal sewer systems. However, they do require routine maintenance and upkeep. Without proper management, you may wind up saddled with a faulty or inefficient septic system.
At Jones Plumbing & Septic Tank Service, our septic tank plumbers can evaluate the septic system of the property you are considering. We can let you know if this system suits your and your family's needs.

Request Maintenance Records
You are allowed to request the septic tank maintenance records from the property owners. These records will contain the tank's pumping schedules and past repairs. You can give this list to your current septic tank company for them to reference when performing future inspections and repairs.
Furthermore, septic system records are an excellent and useful way to determine if the system is in compliance with local regulations. For more information on interpreting septic system maintenance records, contact Jones Plumbing & Septic Tank Service today! Our team is always happy to help.
