Services

Led by septic efficiency expert François Souligny, we specialize in:

  1.     Flow Test Evaluations

  2.     Functionality Verification of Tank and Leaching Bed

  3.     Field Bed Maintenance & Bio-Optimization

 

A flow test is carried out to verify system performance and evaluate overall functionality and efficiency. This includes digging the field bed to expose the septic pipes, and observing how the water level reacts to assess permeability and verify the overall health of the system.

The day of the visit
On the day of the visit, we carry out a visual check of the septic tank to assess its operational level.

We identify any visible damage or missing components. We also assess whether modern updates, such as installing a filter or risers for easier access, and possibly give advice to improve the system's performance and durability.

The immediate environment is also visually assessed for any problematic signs such as tree roots, surface seepage or visible leaks.

Our inspections are visual and non-invasive. We offer a verbal assessment of the system's condition. This assessment is not legally binding and is intended for informational purposes when buying or selling a property.

* it does not replace an engineer's report or an official municipal inspection.

Whether you are buying, selling or maintaining a property, we help you maintain an efficient and optimal septic system.
