When to Call WRE for Septic Tank Service in Jacksonville

If you notice foul odors, slow drains, or gurgling sounds in your plumbing, it's time to call for septic tank service. These signs may indicate a full or malfunctioning septic system. Additionally, pooling water in the yard, lush grass over the tank, or sewage backups are red flags. 

Regular maintenance every 3-5 years helps prevent issues, but immediate service is crucial if warning signs arise. Timely intervention can prevent costly repairs and ensure the efficient functioning of your septic system, safeguarding your home and the environment.

How to Keep Your Septic System Maintained Between Pumping Services

Maintaining your septic system between pumping services is essential for its longevity and efficient operation. 

• First, be mindful of what goes down the drain; avoid flushing non-biodegradable items. 
• Regularly use septic-safe toilet paper and consider a bacterial additive to enhance biological activity in the tank. 
• Be water-conscious to prevent system overload; fix leaks promptly and spread laundry loads. 
• Protect the drain field by avoiding heavy machinery or structures over it. 
• Periodically inspect the tank's risers and covers for damage. 

Implementing these practices ensures a healthy septic system, reducing the risk of costly repairs and extending its lifespan between pumpings.
