"Our Septic Pump Alarm set everything in motion, except our sewer. We called, they were prompt and efficient and knowledgeable .... the septic was drained and determined that the pump needed to be replaced. Because our call was an emergency we rescheduled to have the pump pulled and replaced within the time-limit of the septic capacity. The same young man returned promptly, pulled the pump, repaired the pump and charged us for the service call, only. We were impressed with their promptness, efficiency and honesty. Thank you"

"The tanker showed up on time and ready to go. They opened it, showed me everything I was curious about, including how to check the level myself. They described my tank and field to the best of their ability, based on their experiences. The tank took extra time to empty, over the one hour labor they allocate for the normal job. The cleaner charged me only an extra $30 for the extra 15 minutes. I was able to pay with a credit card. Very professional, very friendly, very experienced. Highly recommended.

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

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.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

An outdoor water valve typically has a round or oval handle that you can turn to control the water flow. It may be located in a protective box or pit near the property line, where the main water line connects to your house.

Choosing a reliable septic tank company starts by finding an experienced company in your area with positive customer reviews online. You can also use the following tips to help ensure you have a positive experience:

  • Choose a company that is licensed and fully insured

  • Ask the company for customer references

  • Ask if the company provides any guarantee for the repair

  • Determine the provider’s level of experience

A septic system's lifespan typically ranges from 15 to 40 years, with a common average of 20 to 30 years. The longevity heavily depends on the tank's material, maintenance diligence, and usage habits. With proper care, lifespans can reach the upper end of this range.

Lifespan by Tank Material:

  • Concrete: 20 to 40 years

  • Plastic or Fiberglass: 30 to 40 years

  • Steel: 15 to 20 years

To maximize your system's lifespan, follow these maintenance best practices:

  • Regular Pumping and Inspections: Have the tank pumped every three to five years and schedule professional inspections regularly.

  • Mindful Usage: Only flush human waste and toilet paper. Avoid putting items like cat litter, paper towels, cigarette butts, fats, grease, oils, or coffee grounds down your drains.

  • Avoid Chemicals: Do not pour harsh chemicals into the system.

  • Water Conservation: Reduce the amount of wastewater your system has to process.

  • Protect the Drain Field: Avoid driving or building heavy structures over the drain field area.
