Thorough, independent property transfer diagnostics and certified paperwork required for smooth real estate closings across Colorado.
Across the Colorado Front Range, selling a property with an active On-Site Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) requires a formal inspection prior to closing. At AB Septic, we provide the fully licensed evaluations needed to keep transactions moving smoothly.
As independent, certified NAWT Inspectors, our focus is providing an honest evaluation of the system's operational health. We deliver the structural findings required by local health departments to approve your county Use-Permit cleanly. Read our guide on buying or selling a home with a septic system.
