About this service
The distribution box is a central part of your drain field system. It takes the liquid effluent from your septic tank and splits it evenly into the various pipes that lead to your absorption area. If your box gets damaged, cracked, or unevenly settled, water may pool in one part of your yard while other parts stay dry. If you see signs of uneven drainage, we can inspect your box to see if it needs repair or adjustment. 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.

What is the best toilet paper to use with a septic system?
For septic systems in Rockford, it's best to use toilet paper labeled 'septic-safe' or 'septic-friendly.' These products are designed to break down quickly in the tank, reducing the risk of clogs. Avoid using thicker, quilted, or scented toilet papers, as they can accumulate and cause problems over time. It's also important to remember that even septic-safe paper should be used in moderation. Never flush anything other than human waste and toilet paper down the drain.
What are plastic septic tanks like?
Plastic septic tanks are a common alternative to concrete or metal tanks. They are typically made of polyethylene or fiberglass. Plastic tanks are lightweight, making them easier to transport and install. They are also resistant to corrosion and rust. However, they can be more susceptible to damage from impact or shifting soil if not properly installed. Regular inspections are still necessary to ensure the tank remains structurally sound. They offer a durable option for many septic systems in Rockford.
