Septic Repairs
When It happens, we've got you covered!
Routine septic maintenance can prevent many unwanted problems from occurring. Wether you've purchased a new home unsure of its septic history or you've been at the same address for 80 years, we highly recommend having your tank pumped & inspected every 3-5 years to ensure its properly functioning the way it should without any issues. Being proactive with your septic system can save you a lot of money and time avoiding major and even emergency issues.
An issue may be occurring if you notice any of the following:
- A foul smell in the home or near the leach field
- Soft or sunken ground by the leach field
- Water pooling near the leach field
- Water leaking into the lower levels of the home
- Septic backups into the home
- Broken or worn out parts of the system such as:
Lids & covers, pipes, pumps, the tank itself, & connections
Septic Emergency:
- If you notice sewage backing up into your home you may be experiencing a clog in the system or something much more than that.
- If the leach field is soft or sunken & stinks this can be a biohazard. Keep children & pets away and block off the area with a temporary fence if possible. You may be using too much water for your system to keep up with, having your septic tank pumped and reducing water usage may help this issue.
Be Septic Smart
Think at the sink!
Don't strain your drain!
Shield your field!
Keep it clean, pump your tank!
Ensure lids are closed & secure!
Be water-wise!
Toilets are not trash cans!
Have a clogged drain?
Consider using boiling water or a drain snake instead of harsh drain cleaners that may disrupt the bacteria level in your septic system.
