When was the last time your septic tank was pumped? Over time, solid waste accumulates in this important part of your plumbing system, and if it’s not regularly pumped out, it can cause serious problems for you, your family, and neighbors. It’s not the most fun service to think about paying for, but a healthy septic tank means it works efficiently, is clean, and undetected by everyone in and around your property.
How to Tell Your Septic Tank is Full
Septic tank maintenance isn’t a job for the average homeowner, however, you can keep an eye out for the warning signs and call in the experts before it becomes an issue. Look for these signs:
A backed-up toilet
Strong smell of sewerage in your yard
Standing water in the yard
A clogged drain
If you’ve got a new septic tank it might have a built-in alarm. If you see lights flashing and an alarm sounding, we can help pump it out.
Pumping out the septic tank ensures that it remains effective at managing your home's wastewater. This is because the sole function of a septic tank is to remove solid waste and scum from the wastewater and to ensure that the only water that is absorbed into the soil is the one that is nitrogen-rich and containing phosphorous. The tank filters all the solid waste and grease from the wastewater and retains it as a sludge and scum. Although the sludge undergoes decomposition thanks to the bacteria in the septic tank, the decomposition is not enough to clear the entire waste. As a result, the tank must be pumped to prevent waste build up.
Regular septic tank pumping ensures that you never have to deal with the consequences of a full septic tank. A full septic tank is bad news for any homeowner. This is because once the sludge builds up inside your septic tank, it might cause problems that are often very expensive to fix. For instance, the build-up could affect your home's drainage causing clogged sinks and sending nasty odors in your home. When drainage problems persist, you might even have to deal with raw sewer on your floors, something that might cost you dearly to clean.

Customer Reviews
A very competent and friendly employee arrived at my house. Was not the most low-priced in comparison, but I found also no reason to complain! Gladly again, if it becomes necessary ;-)
Vivienne Moss
Exceptional service! After asking for emergency help well after midnight, their plumber arrived within only 45 minutes. Despite the late hour, he was very friendly and fixed the problem in no time. The invoice almost exactly matched the estimate I received before. 5/5!
Virginia Gibbs
Good performance at a good price. This is also due to the fact that, in contrast to competitors, they only arrive with one person if this is sufficient. We have become aware of Pro Plumbers by chance.
