If you have a septic tank in your home, the septic system must function at optimum to keep things running smoothly at home. This can only happen if you adopt the habit of often cleaning your septic tank since, over time, solid waste accumulates in the tank and could become a disaster if not pumped and disposed of properly. Septic tank cleaning and pumping is a dirty job, but we understand the need to do this and are always ready to get dirty on your behalf.
There is no reason to fret as there are signs of a full septic tank that you can rely on to tell when to do the pumping.
Pooling water
The good thing with sewage is that once it begins to leak or seep upward, it shows. If you notice pools of water on the lawn around the area where your septic tank and system is installed, check it out as there is a high probability that you have an overflowing septic tank.
Lush and healthy lawn
Grass in your home should appear the same throughout the compound. When grass above your septic system begins to appear green and lush beyond normal, it might be a red flag of a full septic tank.
Odor
As the sludge and wastewater starts seeping upwards in the drain field, a terrible odor is what follows this as a very conspicuous sign that you have a full septic tank.
Slow drains
When the drain in your house start moving slowly, then you might be experiencing clogs in the drain because of an overflowing septic tank.
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.

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!
