What does septic inspection cost?

A septic inspection usually costs $150 to $900. The low end is a visual check of the tank and drainfield; the high end opens and pumps the tank as part of the inspection, which is what most buyers should ask for.

Those are national ranges. The Septic Inspection cost guide explains what moves the price, and local quotes set the real number.
