Why Septic Cleaning Matters

Over time, solids from wastewater — known as sludge — settle at the bottom of your septic tank. If the tank isn’t pumped regularly, that sludge builds up and reduces the tank’s capacity, eventually forcing waste to overflow into the drain field or back up into your home.

  • Skipping regular septic cleanings can lead to serious issues, including:

  • Sewage backups inside your house

  • Clogged or failing drain fields

  • Groundwater contamination that harms the environment

  • Expensive repairs or even full system replacements

Regular cleaning helps your septic system run efficiently, prevents major headaches, and protects your property — and your wallet — in the long run.

When to Schedule a Cleaning

  • Every 3-5 years for most households

  • If you notice slow drains or gurgling sounds

  • Foul odors in your yard or near your tank

  • Standing water near the drain field

  • Before selling your home

Septic Cleaning Process

  1. Locate and uncover the tank

  2. Pump out solids and liquids using professional equipment

  3. Inspect tank condition (inlet/outlet baffles, signs of damage)

  4. Replace lids securely and clean up the site

  5. Provide recommendations for future maintenance
