What’s a Farm Inspection?
Buying a farm means more than purchasing a house and land—it’s investing in a way of life. Farms come with unique systems and structures that require careful evaluation beyond a standard home inspection. At Fox Mountain Property Inspections, we understand the specific needs of agricultural properties. From barns and outbuildings to wells, septic systems, and fencing, we provide the insight you need to make confident decisions about your investment.
What’s a Farm Inspection?

Why a Sewer Scope Inspection Matters—Even on a New Build
Farm-Specific Inspection Services
Water Well Inspection
We evaluate the performance and condition of your well, including pumps, tanks, switches, and valves, to confirm your water supply is reliable.
Water Quality Testing
We collect water samples to determine the safety of your drinking water. Options range from a basic bacteria screen (Total Coliform and E. coli) to more comprehensive testing that can include lead and nitrates.
Septic System Inspection
Farm properties often rely on private septic systems. We provide detailed inspections of both conventional and aerobic systems—as well as lift stations—to ensure proper operation and prevent costly repairs.
Barn & Outbuilding Inspection
Agricultural properties depend on more than the farmhouse. We inspect barns, stables, and utility structures, examining their overall condition as well as critical systems like electrical, plumbing, and HVAC.
Installation Defects or Poor Materials
Not all builders follow best practices or use high-quality materials for sewer lines. A sewer scope inspection can identify poor workmanship, misaligned joints, or even missing sections of piping.
Limited Municipal Oversight
Local code inspections may approve connection points but rarely assess the full length of the sewer line. A third-party sewer scope provides full visibility from the home to the main line, ensuring no surprises post-closing.

She is always professional and courteous. Job well done Lori!
I would strongly recommend fox mountain to anyone in a similar situation because of their high level of knowledge and professionalism.
My second inspection went better and was performed by the owner, Richard and he was every bit as thorough, professional and patient.
Thank you Keith and Richard. I'll be using your company going forward and recommending you to friends and family.
Our Inspector Keith was amazing, and I truly can't say enough good things about him. Very Knowledgeable, thorough and just a nice person! From getting on top of the roof to check for damages all the way down to testing for moisture in the basement. This is the person you want inspecting your future home!
Unfortunately, the house didn't work out, but rest assure I will be calling Fox Mountain back when I am in need of another home inspection.
He arrived punctually and thoroughly examined every aspect of the property. His attention to detail was truly impressive, and he took great care and time to answer my (many) questions about the house. He was super thorough in explaining all of his findings. It was evident that he had a deep knowledge of home construction and maintenance.
What sets Keith apart is not only his technical competence but also his dedication to ensuring I understood the condition of the property. He provided valuable insights and recommendations, which gave me confidence in my home purchase decision. I can’t thank him enough for his outstanding work and would undoubtedly seek his services again in the future.
Thank you,
Mark & Kim
I want to add that this is our second time using the professionals at Fox for an inspection in this challenging home buying market. Both times we left feeling confident we got the information we needed (and more) in order to make an informed decision. They are great- call them!
