System Maintenance
Protect your investment with regular maintenance. Annual checkups keep your system running smoothly for decades.
An Ounce Of Prevention
A septic system is a major investment — one that should last 25-40 years with proper care. But many homeowners treat their system like a set-it-and-forget-it infrastructure. That's a costly mistake.
Regular maintenance catches small problems before they become expensive emergencies. It also helps you understand your system's condition and plan for future needs.
Our maintenance programs are designed to be thorough yet affordable — because we believe every homeowner deserves reliable septic service without breaking the bank.

Keep Your System Healthy
What you do at home matters. These habits protect your investment.
✅ Do:
- Use water efficiently — spread out laundry and dishwasher loads
- Keep records of all pumping and repairs
- Direct roof drains and sump pumps away from the drain field
- Inspect your tank lids regularly for cracks or damage
- Have your tank pumped on schedule (every 3-5 years typically)
❌ Don't:
- Flush anything other than human waste and toilet paper
- Use chemical drain cleaners — they kill beneficial bacteria
- Park vehicles or place heavy objects over the tank or drain field
- Plant trees or shrubs near the system (roots cause damage)
- Use a garbage disposal (or use it very sparingly)
⚠️ Warning Signs:
- Slow drains throughout the house
- Gurgling sounds in pipes
- Foul odors near the tank
- Lush, green grass over the drain field
- Water pooling in the yard
If you notice any of these, call us immediately for an inspection.
