You need septic tank services to maintain a healthy and efficient system. A septic system can fail without proper care, which is at the very least disruptive. Homeowners should be aware of the following septic tank services to keep their system running smoothly.
- Regular Septic Tank Pumping. Over time, solid waste accumulates in the septic tank, requiring regular pumping to prevent clogs and backups. Depending on usage and tank size, most systems should be pumped every three to five years.
- Routine Inspections and Maintenance. Our professional inspections identify potential problems before they become big ones. An annual septic inspection ensures components are functioning correctly and the system isn’t showing signs of failure.
- Drain Field Maintenance. The drain field filters and disperses wastewater. Keeping it clear of heavy objects, avoiding excessive water use, and preventing grease buildup can help maintain its effectiveness.
- Bacteria Additives for System Efficiency. Beneficial bacteria help break down waste in the septic tank. Some homeowners use bacteria additives to support natural decomposition, though it’s best to consult a septic professional before using any products.
- Emergency Septic Services. Unexpected issues like backups, leaks, or foul odors require immediate attention. Having a reliable septic service available for emergency calls can help prevent serious damage to your home and system.
