Be assured that a friendly yet professional environment is maintained by our Engineer.  None of the information gathered during the inspection is revealed to the owner or the owner's real estate agent.  The information is for the exclusive use of our clients.
    Pictured above is a pre-cast concrete cesspool ring.  Two of these rings are usually stacked in an excavated hole, and a pre-cast concrete dome is placed on top.
    Of particular recent interest is the increasing number of Cesspool Collapses.  The type of cesspool that is prone to collapse is the single masonry unit (block) hand-built drainage pit.  If this type of construction is suspected, our Engineer will advise you on your options for its remediation.
