Tips on maintaining your septic system:

• Do not flush non disposable products
• Keep the growth of brush and trees away from the absorption system
• Pump septic tank every 3 years, for a typical 4 person household
• Clean effluent filter (if the tank is equipped with one) biannually
• Refrain from dumping bacteria killing cleaners into the system
• Recommend use of single ply toilet paper and refrain from using two ply toilet paper

Septic Tank Pumping

A septic tank generally consists of a tank (or sometimes more than one tank) of between 1,000 and 2,000 gallons.

Preforming a Visual Inspection

Septic Inspections

Whether selling or purchasing a home, it is often required to have the septic tank and absorption system inspected to determine the health and previous maintenance of the system.

Visual Septic Inspections Include:

• Pumping the septic tank
• Determining sludge and water depth
• Checking the tank and baffles for cracks and damage
• Identifying what kind of system the property has
• Overall condition of the system
• Camera of the sewer lines for obstructions, deterioration, or blockages (if requested)

Pump Station Service

Residential pump station services available, from pumping to diagnosing and fixing failed pump station issues.

Sewer Jetting

Sewer jetting is the process of using high pressure and water to bring a sewer drain line back to like-new condition without having to actually replace the line. This is very cost-effective practice especially for cleaning drains that are heavily used, even for grease. (You aren't supposed to be dumping that down there in the first place!)

Sewer Thawing

Sewer thawing involves using a steamer to thaw and unblock frozen and backed-up sewer lines.

Camera Work/Scoping

Using a high tech camera we can scope sewer lines to determine the condition of the lines as well as the distribution box.

Conventional Mound Systems

Providing repair of mound systems. Depending on materials and the amount of labor involved, mound systems are usually twice the cost of a comparably sized subsurface soil absorption system. The higher cost is necessary, however, if the site or soil condition makes it impossible to use a subsurface soil absorption system. A mound system permits a home to be occupied in a rural area while still protecting the environment.
