CALL FOR AN HONEST INSPECTION

 
 
Choosing an inspector can be a simple process if you take care to ask the right questions. The first thing that you need to get established with an inspector is their lead time. Most people get inspections when they want or need to make some sort of transaction with the property in question, that means waiting too long for an inspection won't do. Find out the fees for inspection, and what is included in these fees. You want one price, all inclusive, with a guarantee of rapid response. If you are a do-it-yourselfer then ask if the inspector has a owner participation program, this can bring the fees down to a few hundred dollars if you want to dig up the septic tank and distribution box yourself. Each town's B.O.H. maintains a list of qualified Title V inspectors, the only problem with this is when you start calling numbers on the list you will find that some people on the list, although qualified, don't even do inspections. Choose an inspector who is actively marketing his service to assure rapid response time to your call and a competitive rate for his service. 

If you are selling your house, refinancing, or changing the usage of (i.e. putting an addition on) your home, then you need a Title Five Certification for your septic system.

 

A Title Five Certification is awarded to on- site sewage disposal system that provide for the protection of public health, safety, welfare, and the environment as outlined in Massachusetts code - Title 5 310 CMR 15.000

 

Here is the good news- most systems are qualified for certification; because in my experience, most systems pass the Title Five Inspection!
