Real-estate and condition inspections of the tank and drain field.
Real-estate and condition inspections of the tank and drain field. In Plant City, common warning signs are sewage odors, slow drains and wet spots over the drain field after storms. When you contact the 16 septic companies serving Hillsborough County below, ask whether the tank will be pumped as part of the inspection and what the written report will cover.
66% of Plant City's homes are owner-occupied. When a house on septic is sold, a buyer can ask for a septic inspection (it is voluntary in Florida) to learn the system's condition before closing.

Florida's septic rule does not list an inspection as a repair; if pumping or repairs are added, ask the permit office whether a permit is needed. Florida law bars any government from requiring an inspection when a home is sold (s. 381.0065(4)(x)). For homes in Plant City, septic permits come from Florida Department of Health in Hillsborough County, Environmental Public Health (813-307-8059). The health department issues septic permits throughout Hillsborough County on behalf of Florida DEP.
Sources: Florida Statutes s. 381.0065: Onsite sewage treatment and disposal systems; Rule 62-6.002, F.A.C. (Definitions). Local rules can differ, so ask the permit office.
Compare Florida septic companies and request no-obligation quotes for pumping, repairs, inspections and new systems.
