Warning Signs: When to Call for Septic Service
If you notice any of these common warning signs, don't wait for the problem to get worse. Call our experts right away.
Foul Odors: Persistent sewage or "rotten egg" smells inside your home or in your yard are a red flag that your tank may be full or leaking.
Slow Draining: If sinks, tubs, and toilets are draining slower than usual throughout your home, it often points to a clog or a full septic tank.
Pooling Water: Soggy patches of grass or standing water in your yard around the drain field is a clear sign your system is overflowing.
Sewage Backups: This is the most urgent sign. If raw sewage is backing up into your drains, tubs, or toilets, you have an emergency that requires immediate professional help.

How do I know if my septic tank is full?
Besides the warning signs listed above (slow drains, odors), the most definitive way to know is through a professional inspection. We recommend pumping every 3-5 years to avoid it ever getting to the point of failure.
How often should I have my system serviced?
For most homes, we recommend having your septic tank pumped and inspected every three to five years. Households with more people or a garbage disposal may need more frequent service. Regular maintenance is the best way to prevent expensive emergencies.
