Our Septic Service Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we assess your septic system to understand what you’re dealing with. We locate your tank, check the access points, and determine the best approach for your specific situation. No guesswork – just professional evaluation.

Next, we pump out the accumulated solids and liquids using our specialized equipment. We inspect the tank condition, check for any signs of damage, and measure the scum and sludge levels to determine if pumping was done at the right time.

Finally, we properly dispose of all waste materials according to environmental regulations and provide you with a clear assessment of your system’s condition. If we spot potential issues, we’ll explain them in plain terms and give you honest recommendations for keeping your system running smoothly.

Most septic tanks in Shoreham need pumping every 3-5 years, but it depends on your household size and water usage. A family of four typically needs pumping every 3-4 years, while smaller households might go 4-5 years between pumpings.

We can inspect your tank and give you a realistic schedule based on your actual usage patterns and tank size.
Call us immediately if you notice sewage backing up into your house, standing water around your septic tank area, or strong sewage odors inside or outside your home. These are emergency situations that need professional attention right away.

Don’t wait on these symptoms – they typically get worse quickly and can cause expensive property damage if ignored.

Never put grease, oil, coffee grounds, or food scraps down your drains – they can clog your system and kill the beneficial bacteria that break down waste. Avoid flushing anything other than toilet paper and human waste. This means no feminine products, diapers, cat litter, or “flushable” wipes. Harsh chemicals like bleach, antibacterial soaps, and drain cleaners can also disrupt your system’s natural processes. Limit your use of garbage disposals, and spread out laundry loads throughout the week rather than doing multiple loads in one day.
