"My pond was already existing but had been neglected for a few years and it needed a major cleaning. Walter and his team came in very professionally and drained the whole thing, kept fish safe, cleaned all the rocks, changed my pump, rebuilt the waterfall and other fallen rocks at edge, and pruned a ton. There was a huge water plant that had gotten out of control, the root structure stretched over 75% the pond, but Walter was able to remove it carefully without damaging liner. It was a big job and he and his team handled it all flawlessly. I was impressed and pond was beautiful again. Good advice for maintenance was given. I’ll definitely use this company again. Picture 1 was taken 6 months after cleaning. Can’t tell in this photo but can still see clear to bottom. Picture 2 was taken just BEFORE cleaning."

Aquarium Services FAQs, answered by experts

The best times of year to empty or pump a septic tank are spring and fall. Many professionals recommend spring because the ground has thawed, making the tank easier to access and the waste less likely to be frozen. Pumping before summer also helps avoid conflicts with vacations or outdoor gatherings. Fall is another great option, as contractors may be less busy, and servicing the tank can reduce the risk of overflow from winter and spring precipitation. While summer is also a suitable time, winter is generally not recommended due to frozen ground.

The average cost to pump a septic tank is around $550, though prices can range from $250 to over $1,250. The final cost depends on several factors, including the size of your tank, how full it is, and your geographic location. For example, pumping a small tank might cost between $290 and $530, while a larger 1,750-gallon tank could cost $600 or more. Prices also vary by region; for instance, costs in Minneapolis range from $175 to $275, while in Portland, they can be between $440 and $750. Regular pumping is essential to prevent waste buildup, which can lead to backups and damage to your drain field.

Your septic tank naturally contains the beneficial bacteria it needs to function, so you typically don't need to add more. However, if you wish to replenish the bacteria, you can use natural methods. For example, you can add three overripe tomatoes to your garbage disposal or flush 1/4 ounce of active yeast down the toilet every three months. While store-bought septic enzymes and chemicals are available, many experts consider them unnecessary and potentially harmful. The most effective way to maintain a healthy bacteria population is to avoid using chemical drain cleaners, which can kill the good bacteria in your system.

Some companies offer concrete pumping for hard-to-reach areas at an additional cost.

Depending on the home, wastewater either goes into a septic tank and seeps back into the backyard or is sent via sewer system to a local sewage-treatment plant. Septic systems naturally separate different components of the waste so that it can naturally and safely disperse it. They are usually reserved for homes not served by a municipal sewage department (like rural homes). A treatment plant, on the other hand, speeds up that process through screening and purification.
