"I can't read the name of the service man I am very sorry to say. He was a gem. Not only was he professional, he was brave enough to go in the back yard with my 6 Golden Retrievers, who made him VERY welcome, so that he could check my septic. I will use again."

"Bosley Drain and Septic did a wonderful job from the very first phone call all the way through job completion. Communication was clear and professional, they showed up when they said they would and they took the time to explain everything throughout the process. The work was done efficiently and with care, and the job site was left clean when they were finished. It’s hard to find a company that’s this reliable and easy to work with. I would absolutely recommend Bosley Drain and Septic to anyone needing septic work."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

While a traditional septic tank requires a leach field for wastewater disposal, it is possible to have a septic system without one. Some alternative systems, which are often used when there isn't enough space for a full-size leach field, include mound systems or sand filtration systems. In a conventional setup, the leach field is essential because it's where the wastewater goes after leaving the tank.

Septic systems typically require servicing every 3-5 years, but frequency varies according to household size and tank capacity.

A septic tank always has some amount of liquid in it—which should usually be 8 to 12 inches from the top of the tank. If the liquid level is higher than that or is overflowing the drainage pipe that leads out to the leach field, the tank may be too full and in need of pumping.

If you aren’t sure if you have a septic tank or a cesspit, you can check your property records or inspect your drainage system. A septic tank has an outlet pipe that allows liquid to drain into a soakaway or drain field, while a cesspit is a sealed tank that requires frequent emptying. If you notice a manhole cover and no nearby drainage field, it’s likely a cesspit. Signs like slow drainage or a frequent need for pumping can also provide clues. A professional inspection is the easiest way to confirm if your home runs on a septic tank or cesspit.

Several things can ruin a septic tank over time, including dumping harsh chemicals (like bleach and ammonia), pesticides, and paint thinners down your drain because they can kill the bacteria in your septic tank. You should also make sure to only flush waste and toilet paper in your toilet—otherwise, you could clog your system.
