Frequently Asked Questions: Septic Maintenance
How often should I maintain my septic system?
We recommend having your septic system inspected and pumped every 3 to 5 years, depending on household size and usage. Regular maintenance helps prevent backups, clogs, and expensive repairs down the road.
What are the signs that my septic system needs repair?
Common red flags include slow drains, sewage odors in or around your home, gurgling pipes, standing water near your drain field, or sewage backing up into the house. If you notice any of these, give us a call right away—we’ll inspect the system and find the right fix.
Can you locate my septic tank if I don’t know where it is?
Yes, we offer professional septic tank locating services. Whether you’ve just moved in or your system records are missing, our team uses the right equipment to pinpoint your tank and other underground utilities safely.
What if I’m near a city sewer line and my septic system fails?
If you’re close to a city sewer line, the county may require you to abandon your septic system and connect to the city sewer. We can help with every step—from city permitting to disconnecting and properly decommissioning your existing tank.
Is it better to repair or replace my drain field?
That depends on the extent of the damage. In many cases, we can repair your drain field without a full replacement. Our team will do a full inspection and give you honest options based on your property and budget.
