From the grease that goes down the sink to the action figure your son flushed down the toilet, your septic system takes a beating. To avoid problems and back-ups, your first defense is septic pumping and maintenance.

Signs your septic system needs the attention from a professional

1Foul Odor

If you smell something that just isn’t right, it could be in your home coming from a drain or when you walk into the backyard, you may have a septic problem. It can be anything from a musty odor to a rotten egg smell or even raw sewage. Which ever it may be, the longer it is allowed to continue, the more it will cost to repair.

Slow Drains

Slow drains can occur for many reasons, something clogging the pipes, grease build up, tree roots, broken pipes, a full septic tank and the list goes on and on. Though you may think the easiest solution is to get some drain cleaner and put it down the drain, but all those chemicals can have devastating consequences on your pipes and septic system.

Wet Grass

If it hasn’t rained and you notice the grass is wet or even a pool of water, it is probably time to have your septic tank pumped.  It is also important to remember, don’t let anyone step or play in this water, they may get sick.

Sewer Backing Up or Toilets Gurgling

If raw sewage is backing up into your bathtub or shower, the toilets are not flushing right or making a gurgling noise, can make for a hazardous situation and it is definitely time to call in the professionals.

Greener Grass

If you notice the grass over the septic tank is greener than the rest of your yard, usually means it is getting extra fertilizer from the septic tank that is too full.
