"EXCELLENT customer service, GREAT communication and the appointment was easy to schedule. I spoke with Cameron was very accommodating & got me on the schedule immediately. He gave me a ballpark quote and explained the service that I’d receive. The day of Chris called to let me know he would arrive within 20 mins. He introduced himself & quickly got to work. He located our tank and began to dig and dig (hard work!!!) until he uncovered both pipes for the inlet & outlet. He explained & showed pictures of our tank & what he’d be doing.Then he carried his suction pipe to the tank & began to pump our septic. He buried the tank, scattered the earth and the spots are barely noticeable. He gave excellent advice to maintain our system and still had a smile after all that work. I would definitely recommend All Pro Enviro for any septic work. Chris is a star employee, he has a great attitude and works very hard. I am thankful for this honest company and will use them again!!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

It is not normal to smell your septic outside and indicates a problem such as an unsealed manhole or access lid, a clogged septic line, a faulty vent stack, or the need for a septic tank pumping. If sewage is leaking from your septic system, it can be hazardous to you, your family, pets, and the surrounding environment. You can troubleshoot the issue yourself, or contact a septic tank pro who can resolve the issue quickly.

The size of your septic tank plays a role in determining the proper size of the drain or leach field. As a general rule, you should have 1 square foot of drain field size per gallon of septic tank capacity. However, you could install a leach field that’s as much as 2.5 square feet per gallon of septic tank capacity. Most professionals determine the right septic tank size and drain field size by the number of bedrooms in the house. A three-bedroom house needs a minimum 1,000-gallon septic tank, for example.

Modern septic tanks have two lids: one that covers the inlet where wastewater flows into the tank and one that covers the outlet where the treated water flows out to the drain field. However, older septic tanks installed before 1975 may have only one lid. Because septic tanks last 20 to 40 years, if yours only has one lid, it may be time for a replacement.

While abandoning a tank without treating it and following strict rules is illegal, there are several other ways to dispose of an old septic tank. One standard method is to pump out and crush the tank where it rests and bury it in the soil. Another is to remove it and transport it to a landfill. Finally, if abandonment is the best option, your contractor must pump out the tank and fill it with inert material, such as sand or concrete, depending on local regulations.
