FAQ
Find quick answers to common queries below to help you better understand our services and your septic system needs.
If you notice any signs of a backup, such as slow drains or sewage odors, contact us immediately. We offer 24/7 emergency services to address your needs promptly.
We recommend pumping your septic tank every 2-4 years, depending on the size of your tank and household usage. Regular pumping helps prevent backups and maintains the efficiency of your septic system.
Common signs include unpleasant odors, water pooling in the drain field, unusually green grass over the septic area, slow draining toilets or drains, and gurgling sounds in the plumbing system.
Avoid planting trees or large shrubs near your septic system as the roots can damage the pipes and tank. Grass is the best cover because it helps control erosion without risking the system's components.
Avoid flushing non-biodegradable products, chemicals, oils, and excessive amounts of kitchen waste. These can clog your system and negatively affect the bacterial balance necessary for your septic system to function properly.
Regular maintenance includes conserving water to reduce the load on the system, inspecting it annually, and having it pumped at regular intervals. Also, ensure that all vents and pipes remain unblocked and functional.
Occasional odors can be normal, but persistent strong smells can indicate a problem. Our team can help identify and resolve issues with gases, often involving checking vents and traps for blockages or leaks.
We provide 24/7 emergency services. Just call us any time, and we'll prioritize getting to your location to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
Yes, heavy rainfall can saturate the ground and affect the drain field, potentially leading to system malfunctions. If you notice issues after significant rain, it may be time for an inspection or maintenance check.
We begin with a site assessment to determine the best system for your property, followed by obtaining necessary permits. Installation involves excavating, placing the new tank, and ensuring all connections are secure and meet local regulations.
If you're planning a large gathering and are concerned about the capacity of your septic system, it's advisable to have your system pumped both before and after the event to ensure it handles the increased usage efficiently. Contact us to schedule a pre-event inspection and pumping, and we can also arrange a follow-up service to maintain optimal system performance. Being proactive will help avoid any issues during your event and extend the life of your septic system.
