Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do you offer service outside of normal business hours?

Yes. We know that septic and plumbing emergencies are unpredictable. Our team provides 24/7 emergency services to residents in Richmond, including weekends and holidays. We are always ready to assist you when you need help the most.

2. Why do septic systems back up?

Backups can occur for a variety of reasons. The most frequent cause is simply waiting too long between pump-outs, which allows solids to accumulate and block the flow. Other issues can include clogged filters or damage to the pipes leading to the drain field. If the backup is in just one toilet or sink, it may be a localized plumbing clog rather than a full system failure.

3. How often should I schedule pumping?

While a general guideline is every one to two years, the specific frequency varies. Factors such as the size of your tank, the age of the installation, and the number of people in your household all play a role. We can help you determine the best schedule to keep your system healthy based on your specific usage.

4. Do I need to be present when you pump the tank?

It is not mandatory for you to be home for exterior services, but we highly recommend it. Being on-site allows our technician to explain the condition of your tank and point out any potential issues immediately. This communication helps you make better decisions about future maintenance.

5. What are the signs that my tank is full?

Your system will typically provide warning signs before a catastrophic backup. Look for unusually lush, green patches of grass over the drain field or water pooling in the yard. Inside the home, be alert for slow drains, gurgling noises from the plumbing, or foul odors. If you notice these symptoms, it is time to schedule service immediately.
