A septic tank requires regular cleaning to improve the functionality of your waste treatment system. This essential moving part consistently collects waste from your residence and separates solids from liquids, allowing the filtered liquid waste to travel out to the ground. In contrast, the solid waste stays within the tank.

A Checklist of Things to Expect During Septic Tank Cleaning

Septic tank cleaning is necessary to prevent mishaps that can become costly if the cleaning process is delayed for a long time. When you hire us for septic tank cleaning, we’ll get the following tasks done to keep your tank clean and functioning well:

  • Sludge removal. On cleaning day, we’ll roll up our suction truck and pump all the waste out of the tank. This opens up space for your tank to collect more waste, allowing it to resume the wastewater treatment process.
  • Filter cleaning. Cleaning the filter is a vital step because it removes debris that the septic tank fails to break down.
  • Final inspection. Once your tank is free of sludge, we perform an inspection to ensure there are no irregularities that need addressing. If we notice any warning signs, we can provide a plan to keep your septic system in working order.

Septic tank cleaning is messy work, but you can trust us to get the job done right. On top of that, we offer free filter cleaning when you choose us for septic tank pumping. Contact us today for a free estimate on our services.
