Septic Inspection & Perc Testing FAQ

Common questions about septic inspection & perc testing in Ulster County, NY.

Yes, a perc test is required before installing a septic system on undeveloped land in Ulster County. It confirms whether your soil can absorb wastewater at a rate that meets New York State standards.

Our inspection covers the tank, distribution box, and drain field condition across your Ulster County property. We check for structural damage, effluent levels, and signs of field saturation or failure.

A failed perc test means the soil cannot support a standard septic system at that location. In Ulster County, this often leads to a requirement for an engineered or alternative system rather than a full stop on building.

A point-of-sale septic inspection is commonly required or strongly recommended for real estate transactions in Ulster County. Buyers and sellers both benefit from a clear, written inspection report before closing.

Ulster County's glacial soils, shallow bedrock, and seasonal groundwater levels limit standard septic absorption on most parcels. A perc test and soil evaluation tell you exactly what your specific property requires.

Call EZ HPS directly to book your septic inspection or perc test anywhere in Ulster County. We will confirm your property details and set up an on-site visit.

Called with a backed-up drain and EZ HPS showed up promptly and fixed it without any hassle. Really glad a local company like this exists in the Hudson Valley.

Karen T.

They handled our HVAC and plumbing in the same visit. The technician was straightforward, knew what he was doing, and cleaned up before he left. Highly recommend.

EZ HPS has been our go-to for a few years now. Fair prices, honest answers, and they show up when they say they will. That means a lot.
