How a Septic System Works

Your wastewater enters your septic tank, where the solids and liquids separate. The liquids exit into the drain field and slowly filter into the natural soil. Soil microbes remove harmful bacteria and viruses, as well as nutrients, before they rejoin groundwater.

While efficient, this system can develop septic system problems in the tank, pipes, baffles, pump, or drainfield, requiring immediate attention.

A fully functional septic system is necessary for the following:
  • Preventing backups
  • Protecting nearby water sources
  • Protecting soil
  • Preventing pooling water

Septic Tank Inspection and Diagnosis

During a septic tank inspection, your plumber will assess the tank and all connected components. We’ll measure the solid waste layers, test the plumbing flow, and evaluate the drain field.

We do this to identify blockages, damaged pipes, and root intrusion. It also allows us to locate any other plumbing problems, leaks, or system failures. We can then recommend the best septic system repair for your needs and address the issue promptly.

Septic Tank Pumping

Septic tank pumping removes accumulated solid waste, oils, and grease from your tank. This maintenance task clears out the heavy sludge from the bottom and the scum from the top.

It restores liquid capacity and prevents raw solids from entering the drainfield, which can lead to system failures. Scheduling routine septic tank pumping keeps your system operating properly. It also reveals any damage requiring septic system repair.

Septic Tank Repair

Our septic tank repair begins with diagnosing the issue, which determines what type of repairs we’ll recommend.

We excavate the area to access your tank. This allows us to pump out the wastewater and fix or replace damaged components. This may include broken pipes, leaks, cracked walls, failed baffles, or loose lids.

By addressing these issues and restoring connections between your home, tank, and drainfield, we ensure proper wastewater containment and flow.

Septic Tank Replacement

If we discover a severely cracked tank, corrosion, the wrong-size tank, or structural damage, we’ll recommend a septic tank replacement.

Our team will pump and remove your old, damaged tank. After excavating the site, we install a new concrete or plastic tank.

We’ll ensure that it is on a level gravel base and reconnect it to your home and drainfield pipes.

Once complete, we backfill the area. This process can take several weeks, with the physical digging lasting only a few days.
