Why Choose Russell Inspection Services

A septic system is primarily underground and unseen – so many people take it for granted and tend not to notice subtle clues that there is an issue. Oftentimes many home owners don’t realize that there is an issue until there is a sewage backup or some other type of event. We have performed septic system evaluations for many years throughout New Hampshire. As a certified septic system inspector and a certified member of the Granite State Designers and Installers Association, we have the experience and training needed to provide you with the most comprehensive septic system evaluation possible.

A septic system is a critical part of your home’s operation – which is why we use the “house as a system” approach. We evaluate not only the septic tank, but the entire system. We also utilize every tool possible to provide you the best inspection of your septic system, including sewer cameras, hydraulic load tests, and more. From the moment water enters a drain, all the way to the leach field, we make sure that it all works in harmony. So whether you are an owner, a seller, or a buyer, be sure to have us inspect your septic system so as to protect you, your family, and your investment.

What Services We Offer

SEPTIC INSPECTIONS

Your septic system is an integral part of your home and how it operates. I am a certified septic inspector and I provide you with the best information possible and detailing every part of the system that is accessible.

WELL TESTING

The water you drink is obviously important. We perform a well stress test and water purity testing to ensure you have enough water and that the quality is suitable.

Why have a septic inspection?

The State of New Hampshire regulates septic systems and how they are used, repaired, and installed. Under certain circumstances the State will allow a septic system to be repaired, but many times if a septic system goes into failure a complete new system must be designed, installed by a licensed contractor, and approved by the State of New Hampshire according to NH law – and that can become very expensive very quickly. This emphasizes the need to have a proper septic system inspection performed to ensure you don’t get “stuck” with a large, unexpected expense.
