About this service
Cleaning services involve the professional removal of sludge and scum that accumulates in your tank over time. We use specialized equipment to pump out the contents and ensure the tank is clear to prevent solids from clogging your drain field. You typically need this service every three to five years, depending on your household size and tank capacity. Regular cleaning is the best way to extend the life of your system. We provide 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.
