This time of year at Orlando Septic Services, we get many questions about septic tank pumping, maintenance and problems.
For instance, Paul from Casselberry, noticed a septic odor when sprucing up his yard. Though his septic system seems to be working properly and you haven’t noticed any backups. It would definitely be easier to ignore it, but in the back of their mind they know the longer they put it off the worse it will be.
Or with all the rain this time of year the homeowner notices gurgling in the toilets or drains and wonder if it is something they should be worried about. That’s when they call us at Orlando Septic Services and ask what to do.
We explain, understanding your septic system is the first step to avoiding any problems.
Bacteria are used in the septic system to break down solid waste into a liquid form. The system is ripe for problems when the bacteria level drops. Waste begins to build up in the tank and results in tiny particles of waste traveling into the drain field. Eventually these particles build up and create big problems and foul odors.
Try walking around the drain field, depending on the septic system design it can be in a number of shapes. Examine the area, look for any moist or black spongy material in the soil. If you do, it may be the problem.
Though some think just pumping out the tank will make all the problems go away, but this isn’t always true. You should contact us at Orlando Septic Services right away if you’re having any issues with your system.
Whether it’s a bacteria or drain field problem, it’s important to have it fixed by a professional before it ends up costing you thousands and poisons your home. With over 23 years of experience, Orlando Septic Service makes the process as painless as possible!
