If you own a septic system, you can’t afford to ignore septic maintenance. Septic tank problems can bring your entire home to a halt. This is one of your most important systems and keeping it running well should be a top priority. Make sure to contact our professional team for regular septic maintenance services. Let’s look at what you can expect during these septic cleanings.

Certified Professionals

When you hire septic cleaners you need to look for certified professionals. Most areas will require that anyone providing septic services to be properly licensed and certified. This is due to the fact that the company is dealing with dangerous waste. The contents of a septic tank are considered to be a biohazard. There are very specific regulations in place concerning how tanks can be cleaned and how the waste is to be disposed of.

Scheduled Service

Septic tank cleaners will need to schedule you for service. It’s best to schedule service before you actually need it. If your septic tank is already having issues, this means that it’s past due for cleaning. If you keep your septic tank on a regular cleaning schedule, you can avoid those unexpected problems that shut your home’s plumbing down.

Disrupted Yard

You should also expect that your yard will be disrupted to some point. Professional septic cleaners try to be as non-invasive as possible, but the truth is they will need to open up your tank and that involves some digging in your yard. Many companies will try to clean up the area as best they can, but you will see some disturbance to your property.

Thorough Inspection and Cleaning

You can expect the septic tank professionals you hire to inspect the tank and pump and clean the tank as well. This may take a few hours. During the inspection, they will take note of any problems that your tank might be having and will also advise you on how to solve those issues.

Did you know that, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the typical household septic system should be inspected by a septic service professional at least once every three years and should be on a regular cleaning schedule?
