3 Things to Check on a Septic Tank

Scum and Sludge Level Check

The septic tank has three layers. The bottom most is the sludge layer. Heavy particles settle and accumulate in this layer. The liquid layer sits in the middle and is normally the bulk of the material in your tank. The top has a thin layer of scum from the oils and fats that separate from the waste. In case the sludge level rises, pumping is required to avoid a costly septic repair bill.

Check the Pipes and Other Mechanisms

Mineral deposits and debris can settle into pipes and cause them to clog and rust. When your septic system starts showing signs of failure, a thorough inspection is all that you need. A good inspection can save you thousands of dollars by catching problems early and preventing further damage.

Drain Field Check

During the inspection, our certified professionals will thoroughly check your absorption field. Water pooling, strong odors from the ground, and a rapidly growing patch of grass indicate potential septic system troubles. Diagnosing such minor issues and fixing them ensure the overall wellbeing of your septic system.
