Meet the Owner
John Kuriplach, Owner
John Kuriplach has spent more than 25 years in the construction and plumbing trade, with the last 11 to 12 years focused specifically on septic systems. That combination matters: septic problems are rarely just septic problems, and a background that spans plumbing, excavation, and building means the diagnosis accounts for the whole property, not just the tank.
What customers remember most is the education. John walks homeowners around their own property and explains what each component does, why the system behaves the way it does, and what will extend its life. It is common to hear that a customer finally understands their septic system after years of ownership.

A Septic Company Built Around Homeowner Education
Most people never think about their septic system until something goes wrong, and by then the conversation is usually happening under pressure with a contractor they have never met. That dynamic is how homeowners end up paying for full replacements when a baffle failed, or paying repeatedly to clear the same line because nobody ever looked at why it kept blocking. Inspector Septic was built to break that pattern.
Every visit includes an explanation. We show you where the tank, distribution box, and absorption field actually sit on your property, what condition each component is in, how your household's water usage affects the system, and what maintenance interval makes sense for the number of people living there. Customers routinely tell us it is the first time anyone has walked them through their own system — and homeowners who understand their system spend dramatically less on it over the following decade.
We also believe an estimate should be a document, not a verbal number that changes on the invoice. Repair options are presented at multiple budget levels with the trade-offs explained, so you can choose the immediate fix, the durable fix, or a staged plan that spreads the cost across a schedule you can manage. Nothing proceeds without your approval, and nothing gets recommended that a system does not genuinely need.
Serving Kingston and the Hudson Valley 24 Hours a Day
From our base at 503 Dewitt Mills Road in Kingston, we cover Ulster County — Kingston, Woodstock, Saugerties and the Glasco hamlet, New Paltz, and Hurley including the Rolling Meadows neighborhood. Each of those areas has its own soils, water table behavior, and typical system vintage, and more than a decade of septic-specific work across all of them means fewer false alarms and fewer missed failures.
Septic emergencies do not keep business hours, so neither do we. Calls are answered around the clock by an experienced septic professional rather than an answering service, and on every job we hold to one rule: we do not leave a property until the system is usable in some capacity, even when a permanent repair has to be scheduled for later.
Our Mission
Honest Solutions, Quality Workmanship, and Customers Who Understand Their System
Inspector Septic was built on straightforward values — honest recommendations, quality workmanship, and educating customers throughout the service process. Septic systems confuse a lot of homeowners, so we take the time to explain findings, answer questions, and present repair options that fit different budgets.
As a locally operated business, we believe every customer deserves honest advice and clear explanations without unnecessary upselling. Our commitment is to help property owners make informed decisions while protecting the health, safety, and long-term performance of their septic systems.
