F.A.Q.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Often Should I Pump My Septic System?
The frequency of septic pumping and inspections depends on several factors, including tank size, household size, and water usage. As a general guideline, it is recommended to pump the tank every 3-5 years and schedule an annual inspection. Regular inspections can help identify and address issues early, such as an overworked pump or tree roots clogging leach lines, potentially saving you money in the long run.
What Is Line Jetting? Why Would I Need This Service?
Line jetting clears out your drain lines by using high-pressure water. This will clear obstructions and help with regular maintenance of your septic system to prevent backups.
Are You Licensed & Insured?
Yes, I am licensed and insured, fully complying with state and local laws. Hiring a licensed and insured contractor like myself provides protection and ensures that your homeowner’s insurance doesn’t have to cover any potential damages. Avoiding uninsured contractors is important to prevent potential costs in worst-case scenarios.
