True Water Septic | Victoria ∙ Langford ∙ Colwood ∙ Sooke ∙ Saanich ∙ Sidney ∙ Metchosin ∙ Highlands ∙ Gulf Islands
Buying or selling a home with a septic system?
A proper, third-party septic inspection is the #1 way to avoid surprises, renegotiations, or post-closing disputes. Our inspections are 100 % independent — we do not perform repairs on the same property so you get a truly unbiased report that realtors, lawyers, and lenders trust.
We only inspect and report. Any recommended work is left for the new owner (or negotiated between buyer and seller). No pressure, no up-selling.
