Stevenson Plumbing Services – Stevenson Septic Tank Repair and Cleaning

Living in a home means managing a multitude of various things. On any given day, several of the numerous aspects of home ownership can emerge and require you to address. Of all that can go awry in a home, perhaps the most disagreeable for numerous reasons is the overflow of your septic tank. Not only do sewage backups produce a noxious odor, but the remediation is costly and complex. You can steer clear of all of this by getting in touch with Stevenson Plumbing Services. We have been delivering septic tank cleaning services to the people of Stevenson since 1970.

What a Septic Tank Does

If you ever pause to consider about it, every person creates a significant amount of waste, and quite a bit of that waste is dispatched down various drains in your home. Your sinks, toilets, bathtubs, showers, and washing machines all produce different types of waste, and all of it is channeled through a pipe to a common spot. That location 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 receives this waste from the pipe in your home where the solids sink to the bottom. The liquid is released onto your property underground through the field lines where the indigenous bacteria in the soil filters the effluent, in the end rejoining the groundwater. The solid waste is stored in the septic tank where enzymes and bacteria break it down into sludge. This sludge builds up over time, and eventually, your tank will fill. This is when it’s time for septic tank cleaning. In addition, septic tank cleaning is a wise idea for obvious environmental reasons.

Signs to Watch For

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: Lush green patches are showing up on your lawn. Your toilets and/or tubs make odd noises when you use them. You’re detecting an odor around your home, particularly where there are drains. Any of these signs could suggest that your septic tank may need pumping. Even if you don’t see any of these potential problems, you should still schedule a pumping if it’s been awhile since it was last done.
