How Our Process Works

Inspection begins with locating and uncovering access points to your tank and system components. Technicians check the tank for structural integrity, measure sludge and scum layers, and test inlet and outlet baffles to ensure proper flow. In Lexington, where mineral-heavy soil and older installations create unique challenges, local knowledge helps identify issues specific to Central Kentucky properties.

You receive a complete walkthrough of findings, including filter condition, flow rates, and any signs of system stress or damage. Major Duke's Services documents everything in a written report suitable for lenders, real-estate agents, or personal records. Technicians explain what each finding means and what steps, if any, you should consider next.

After the inspection, you know exactly where your system stands and can plan maintenance or repairs with confidence. The process is straightforward, transparent, and designed to give you peace of mind before closing or heading into peak usage seasons.
