Septic System Inspection
Allowing your septic system to overfill can damage your septic system, harm the drainfield, and corrupt the integrity of the septic tank. Replacing a septic system can cost 10-25 times more than a septic cleaning service call.
An overfilled septic tank can also backup plumbing fixtures that can lead to water damage to the interior of your home or business, in addition to damaging those plumbing fixtures.
On average, a septic tank needs to be inspected and pumped every 3 to 5 years. Duration between cleanings will depend on the size of the tank, frequency of use, residential vs. commercial, local regulations, and water conservation efforts.
