It’s pretty easy to forget about your Orlando home’s septic tank, but doing so can end up costing you. The best way to keep your system up and running smoothly is to have your system inspected and the tank pumped regularly. Remember, the septic system is responsible for all the waste water in your home. The more water you use, the more often it needs to be pumped.
Look for any of these telltale signs your septic system needs repairs
Regular septic inspections and tank pumping will alert you to potential problems. Catching and repairing problems early, before extensive damage is done, can save you a lot of money! So, if you notice any of the signs, contact the Orlando Septic Services right away, before the problem gets worse.
Foul smell in your yard or house
When your septic system is operating properly, you won’t smell any gases because all the solids and liquids are contained in the tank and pipes. There should never be a sewage smell inside your home or outside.
If you do notice a foul odor inside your home, it could be from a full septic tank that is backing up. If the smell is outside, it is typically the drain field that may need repairs.
Bathtub backing up or toilet making gurgling sounds
A sure sign of a problem is the bathtub or toilet backing up, waste water backing up into your home can be a serious issue and will need to be cleaned up properly. Gurgling sounds coming from your toilet is another sign of a problem.
Slow drains
A single drain that is slow or clogged, may not be something to panic about, but if you notice all the drains are slow, it could be because the septic tank is full. You should have the tank pumped before it causes damage within the system.
Puddles or patches of bright green grass near the drain field
It is important to be proactive and walk around the yard to check for unexplained puddles, wet areas, or spots where the grass is greener than the rest of the yard.
