Small Town Septic

  • How often should I have my septic tank pumped?

    Septic tank pumping is generally recommended every 3 to 5 years. However, this timeframe can vary depending on factors such as household size, water usage patterns, and the capacity of your septic system.
  • What are the signs that my septic system needs service?

    Indications that your septic system may require servicing include slow-draining fixtures, foul odors, gurgling sounds from pipes, sewage backups in your home, and unusually lush or green grass over your drain field area.
  • What should I avoid flushing down the toilet or drain?

    To maintain your septic system's health, avoid flushing or draining items such as wipes (including those labeled as flushable), feminine hygiene products, cooking oils and grease, harsh chemical cleaners, and large quantities of food waste.
  • Can you repair a damaged septic system, or does it need replacement?

    Many septic system issues can be resolved through repairs, such as fixing damaged pipes or baffles. However, if the damage is extensive or the system is significantly aged, a full replacement might be the most appropriate solution.
