Proper maintenance of your septic system is essential to keeping it working efficiently and making it last. The average household septic system should be cleaned and inspected at least every 3-5 years. If your system has an effluent filter, they should be cleaned yearly. If your system does not have an effluent filter, we can add one. Outlet effluent filters are very helpful in keeping solids out of your drain field. Alternative systems with pumps, float switches or other mechanical components should be inspected once a year. Not performing the normal and proper maintenance will create problems such as slow drains, sewer backup, system damage, drain field failure, foul odor and environmental contamination.

The cost of a septic tank cleaning varies based on factors like tank size, location, and local service rates. On average, pricing could start at a few hundred dollars and vary greatly depending on size and condition. Regular maintenance is a wise investment to avoid more costly issues in the long run.
