Based on an inspection which I have in PDF form from CSI (Midland NJ) as proof of allegations made on my septic system was the difference of $35000.00 and $3500.00. YES 10X Based on CSI's low budget inspection. This septic company CSI based in Midland NJ made my life a misery for about a month until PROVEN otherwise the other day based on results given to me by the purchasers(witnessed by a certified PE Engineer) of my homes septic system. Fortunately I had the foresight to not believe the gray area results based on NJ DEP guidelines for a Septic inspection. So it cost me $1350.00 additional to do it right and have Tri-County come in and reinspect and test my system properly. Tri County is Excellent and Professional Septic Inspection and Repair Co. Mike the President not only was present the entire time but was very patient in explaining my problems(noting at beginning of inspection that he would let me know if I had a total failure of my Septic Field as noted by CSI) and also a buyers attorney letter addressed to us and my attorney.. He checked and rechecked his work numerous times..Insisted I take a video and pictures to prove his repairs were done according to NJ DEP guidelines but also prove my septic field was in Satisfactory condition!!! .He load tested my system over a 2 day period and found my percolating field was in good shape as opposed to an inspection performed by CSI. ..OMG He proved to me that my field was satisfactory and met every standard to pass. Yes my distribution box was bad and the inspection hole was PASTY not soaked as CSI reported....but Tri County also found my baffle was in needed replacement. ...WE found inspection holes that were not even in our field. Trust me the only one they found was out by my Distribution box which they correctly identified as being bad.....No other inspection holes were found in my field by 3 of us closely looking for holes . Tri County repaired the Distribution box to the field, a baffle and a PVC pipe that had pitched wrong after being underground so long and also brought boxes up to grade and now it meets the guidelines of today..He repeatedly told me to stay in contact if there were any issues...Oh BTW the board of health issued the health certificate immediately after measurements which proved a job well done. He than reinspected the field which once again came up bone dry. I also have a letter from buyers attorney which claim the buyers were and quot;Adamantand quot; in us replacing my ENTIRE Septic system. The buyers insisted we get a re-inspection done by CSI and a hydraulic load test AGAIN but this time I was prepared with my Engineer. Guess what my field this time was bone dry. Let me first say I DO NOT blame our purchasers of our home nor there attorney. They based there communications to us and misunderstandings on CSI's report. Thank You Tri County and my PE Engineer Wayne Ingram: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/wayne-ingram-p-e-p-p-lsit/a/146/b9b for saving me $25000-$30000.00 The bottom line to my horror story with CSI located in Miland NJ is you get what you pay for....A $400 inspection is not going to get you the thorough comprehensive REAL conclusions for your septic system

Michael knows his stuff start to finish. If only our buyers had used him for the inspection from day one, tons of time would have been saved. Michael has extensive knowledge and was able to diagnose the problems with our unusual, non-standard septic system. He then was able to flush and clean the entire system, and get it back in working order within three days. Highly professional, very communicative, and a vast, vast knowledge of septic systems.

Excellent company. Spent the time to teach me about the septic system soup to nuts, always answers my questions, has worked for and done well by my friends and neighbors....could not be more positive...
