How can I tell if there's too much moisture in my house?

Q: Are septic tank locations public record?

• <div><p>Septic tank locations are sometimes public record, although it depends on local laws and the property age. Older properties may not have the septic tank information on public record. To check, you can talk to local permitting agencies, such as your local health department, the local environmental department, or the county clerk. </p></div>

Q: Should you let your contractor(s) do the pre-drywall inspection?

• <div><p>Any good contract company will do their own post-work inspection and walkthrough with their clients, but you shouldn&rsquo;t consider these a replacement for a third-party pre-drywall inspection. Even a small mistake or oversight can lead to big issues down the line. Having an objective, neutral professional perform the inspection will help to make sure nothing goes overlooked.</p></div>

Q: Why is there a skunky smell in my house?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;ve spotted a skunk or know that one of these furry creatures sprayed one of your family members, your answer is fairly obvious. However, a skunky smell in your house that isn&rsquo;t coming from these critters may be a sign of a dangerous gas leak. If you suspect this, leave your home immediately and call emergency services. It could also be a build-up of dangerous gas in your home&rsquo;s septic system or plumbing. Call a professional <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/plumbers/">plumber near you</a> to make an assessment. </p></div>

Q: Is it worth it to buy a home with a cesspool?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re in the market, you might think twice before buying a home with a cesspool on the property. You&rsquo;ll need to factor in the costs of either maintaining the cesspool (such as with aeration, pumping, and cleaning) or dismantling the system and replacing it with a septic tank or sewage line connection. It might still be a good idea to buy that home, but you&rsquo;ll need to decide for yourself if the costs and hassle are worth it.</p></div>
