Visual Inspection
First, the technician will visually inspect your septic tank and other components. They'll look for any signs of damage or blockage that may need to be addressed. The septic system should be visually inspected annually to ensure it's in good condition. If you notice any signs of trouble, such as water coming from the drain field, contact us immediately so we can help you.
Sludge Gets Removed
Once the technician has looked at everything, they'll remove any sludge from your tank using an auger or pump truck. This process allows them to inspect the inside of your tank for any signs of damage or blockage. If there are any problems with your tank, they'll be able to spot them during this process.
Drain Field Lines Are Cleared
Next, pressure from a truck-mounted pump pushes water from inside your septic tank through underground pipes called drain fields. These pipes are buried beneath grassy areas around your home where they disperse water into soil where it can safely decompose into the environment without causing any harm to humans or animals living nearby.
Filters Are Cleared
These are usually made of sand or gravel, and they help remove solid matter from wastewater before it can get into the leach field. These filters must be cleaned regularly for the septic system to function properly.
