What does a septic tank look like when it’s broken, caved in, collapsed and no longer holding water….

👀 Check out the pictures below from a property a few weeks ago

🧐 Not a pretty sight but a cool tool to check the sludge depth, to see if the tank requires a pump out, in a septic inspection from last week🕳️🔦🪏

All of our inspections include a thermal imaging camera inspection 🤳 This allows us to find hidden leaks/moisture damage, heat loss & missing insulation.
In this case, we knew exactly where/why the thermal camera was flashing 🚩🔦 Unfortunately, the plywood had water damage and is rotted. All from a piece of flashing installed incorrectly

Very happy to have found this for a customer in Cayuga, before the problem caused more damage than it already has.
The gas range hood vent was venting into the attic, and not outside. This was causing excess grease and moisture in the attic and on the trusses/ sheathing, which will eventually lead to wood decay and possible mold. It could also lead to a fire with build up of grease and smoke in the attic. Signs of wood decay were already present. Some of the trusses were even splitting already.
The issue was properly corrected, the pipe was vented outside, and trusses repaired.
Another good reason to get your home inspected!

😂 We are trained, and have all the right tools to see things the average person can’t!
First day back to school today! Hope all the kids have a great day!
