Home Purchase
Many prospective homeowners don’t realize that a home inspector is not licensed to conduct well inspections. This is why you need a professional well inspector to perform a thorough inspection of both the well and the tank before you buy the home. They know what to look for in order to make sure the entire well system is functioning properly. You don’t want any surprises once you move into your new home.
During the well inspection, the inspector will:
- Examine the tank, fittings, and valves.
- Monitor the pump and well.
- Take off the well cap and check the water level.
- Check the water softener for iron, sulfur, and hardness.
Annual Maintenance Inspection

- Tree roots too close to the well
