About this service
Pumping services involve removing the solid waste and sludge that builds up inside your tank over time. This is a vital part of preventative maintenance. You typically need pumping every few years, depending on the size of your tank and how many people live in your house. If you skip this, solids can overflow into your drain field and cause a clog that is very expensive to fix. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
Summer often means more houseguests and increased water usage, which puts extra demand on your septic tank. With more showers and laundry loads, it is easier for a tank to reach capacity. If you have guests coming over, consider a pump-out beforehand to avoid an inconvenient backup during your family gatherings.
Frequently asked in Beaverton
What do septic tank pumping companies do in Beaverton?
What is a septic tank?
A septic tank is an underground, watertight container that receives all wastewater from a home's plumbing system. It serves as the first stage of treatment, where solids settle out and float to the top, while the liquid effluent then flows to a drain field for further purification. The tank is designed to hold wastewater long enough for solids to separate and for some decomposition to occur. Regular pumping is essential to remove accumulated solids and prevent system failure.
