Septic Repair Services

A septic pump-out is a crucial maintenance task for homes and properties that rely on septic systems for waste disposal. This process involves removing the accumulated sludge, scum, and effluent from the septic tank to maintain its functionality and prevent any potential issues.

Septic systems are underground wastewater treatment structures consisting of a septic tank and a drain field. When waste is flushed or drained from toilets, sinks, and other fixtures in the house, it enters the septic tank. Solid waste settles to the bottom of the tank, forming a layer of sludge, while oils, fats, and other lighter materials float to the top, forming a layer of scum. The remaining liquid, known as effluent, flows out of the tank and into the drain field where it is further treated and filtered through the soil.

Over time, the sludge and scum layers in the septic tank will accumulate and become thicker. If not properly maintained, these layers can potentially clog the drain field and lead to system failure. This is why regular septic pump-outs are necessary. Typically, septic tanks should be pumped every 3 to 5 years, although the frequency may vary depending on household size, water usage, and tank capacity.
