Our expert septic system inspection and repair in Palm Desert is a meticulous process designed to identify any potential issues before they become catastrophic failures. A comprehensive inspection begins with locating and safely uncovering the lids to the septic tank. Our technicians will then measure the sludge and scum layers to determine if the tank is due for pumping. We carefully inspect the tank itself for any signs of cracks, leaks, or deterioration. A critical part of the inspection is examining the inlet and outlet baffles, which are crucial for the proper separation of solids and for preventing the drain field from clogging. We will also conduct a thorough walking inspection of the drain field area, looking for tell-tale signs of failure such as soggy spots, unusually lush vegetation, or unpleasant odors. After our evaluation, we provide you with a detailed report of the system’s condition and a clear list of any recommended repairs.

Should our inspection reveal any problems, our team is fully equipped to provide prompt and professional septic system repairs. Our expertise covers the full range of potential failures. We can repair or replace damaged or missing tank lids, which is a critical safety issue. If the inlet or outlet baffles have deteriorated or fallen off, we can replace them to restore proper function and protect your drain field. We can address issues with the distribution box, which is responsible for evenly distributing effluent to the leach lines, ensuring one part of your field isn’t being overloaded. We are also skilled at identifying and repairing sections of the drain field lines that may have been crushed or clogged by invasive tree roots, solving the root cause of system backups and ensuring the long-term health of your septic system.
