"We recently had this company replace our original 1000 gallon septic tank with a 1500 gallon upgrade, along with an additional drain field line and they did a great job. If you want people who are skilled, hardworking and honest to handle your project, then I recommend that you give NC Septic & Pump your consideration. Their communication is excellent and they are very easy and pleasant to work with."

"Gentleman that came out, I believe his name was Cory, did exceptional work. He was great with communication. Our original scheduled date had to be changed due to an emergency he had. He was prompt in letting me know and getting rescheduled. He came out showing his knowledge, politeness, and professionalism. He communicated and even let us know of a couple future problems and fixes that he saw will be coming. He didn’t push any other sales or costs on to us and was up front on the charge. We also found out this fine young man is a veteran. Thank you again for your service, sir. I highly recommend CB Septic and know that we will be used them again."

"Rooter Express was called in when we had an emergency situation with sewage backup and after clearing the line to the tank. They were very responsive and gave us an honest assessment. We ended up replacing the Septic Tank and things are well now!"

"I recently worked with Stanly Septic & Grading for a septic system alteration project, and couldn't be more satisfied with the results. From start to finish, Kollin and team demonstrated exceptional professionalism and commitment to quality. Kollin took the time to thoroughly assess our needs and provided us with a clear and detailed plan for the project. His knowledge is impressive, and he explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. The work was carried out efficiently, with minimal disruption to our property. The team was punctual and left the site clean and tidy. What stood out the most was the level of communication throughout the process, Kollin was always quick to respond to my calls and texts. The project was completed on time and within the budget we discussed. Thank you, Kollin and team at Stanly Septic & Grading, for a job well done!"

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

Most homeowners know there’s a septic system problem when they can smell one. However, this isn’t exactly a scientific deduction method. Consider some of the other signs: standing water or constantly damp earth in the drainage area, toilets and sinks that won’t drain or frequently back up, and loud plumbing. You really need to be on top of routine maintenance with septic systems in order to avoid such unpleasant symptoms of a septic issue. 

You should pump your septic tank once every two to four years for a family of four, depending on your septic tank size. You should pump a 1,000-gallon septic tank every two years, while a 1,500-gallon tank should be pumped every four years. Water usage also affects how often you should pump your septic tank. If you notice slow drains, foul smells, or gurgling sounds from your drains, you should pump your septic tank as soon as possible.

Septic tanks and cesspits are both types of sewage and wastewater systems, but they differ in key ways. The main difference between the two systems is that septic tanks separate sewage from wastewater and allow the latter to flow into a drainage field to filter and disperse into the soil. Cesspits don’t have outlets and instead, store sewage until it needs to be pumped by a professional.

Ensuring you have adequate space for your engineered septic system is crucial. You’ll need to reserve approximately 900 square feet for a three-bedroom home’s system. However, the type of soil you have, soil absorption rate, the size of your home, climate, and local zoning code will impact the actual amount of space you need.

Yes, septic tank companies must be licensed in most states and municipalities to perform services like installation, alteration, repair, and pumping. Since laws vary by location, it's crucial to check local requirements.

Hiring an unlicensed professional can lead to poor work, code violations, and significant fines. Always verify that your chosen company is properly licensed and fully insured to avoid liability. You can use tools like Angi’s contractor licensing search to check a pro's credentials.

It's also helpful to understand the difference between licensing and certification. A license is a legal requirement to operate, while certifications are voluntary. Credentials like the “Angi Approved” badge indicate that a business meets extra standards, such as passing a background check and maintaining a high rating.
