Hanceville Plumbing Services – Hanceville Septic Tank Repair and Cleaning

Living in a home means handling a multitude of different things. On any typical day, one of the infinite aspects of home ownership can crop up and demand your attention. Of all that can go awry in a home, perhaps the most disagreeable for various reasons is the overflow of your septic tank. Not only do sewage backups generate a noxious odor, but the cleanup is expensive and involved. You can avoid all of this by reaching out to Hanceville Plumbing Services. We have been offering septic tank cleaning services to the people of Hanceville since the 1970s.

What a Septic Tank Does

If you ever take a moment to reflect about it, every person produces a lot of waste, and quite a bit of that waste is conveyed down various drains in your home. Your sinks, toilets, bathtubs, showers, and washing machines all produce various kinds of waste, and all of it is directed through a pipe to a single destination. That destination is your septic tank. Your septic tank handles the entire household’s waste load, which adds up quickly when you think about all the times in a day your toilets flush, your showers run, and your sinks and washing machines drain.

The septic tank accepts this waste from the pipe in your home where the solids drop to the bottom. The liquid is sent onto your property underground through the field lines where the indigenous bacteria in the soil cleans the effluent, in the end mixing back into the groundwater. The solid waste is held in the septic tank where enzymes and bacteria decompose it into sludge. This sludge accumulates over time, and eventually, your tank will fill. This is when it’s imperative for septic tank cleaning. In addition, septic tank cleaning is a good idea for obvious environmental reasons.

Indicators Your Septic Tank Needs Attention

If you haven’t had a septic tank pumping service done on your home for some time now, you should watch for the following warning signs that your tank may need pumping: Dark green patches are appearing on your lawn. Your toilets and/or tubs make odd noises when you try to flush/drain them. You’re detecting an odor around your home, particularly where there are drains. Any of these signs could imply that your septic tank may need pumping. Even if you don’t detect any of these potential problems, you should still get your tank pumped out if it’s been awhile since it was last done.
