Once the site has been identified, we proceed to excavate the area to create a space for the new septic tank. The septic tank is then lowered into the hole and leveled, ensuring that it is properly positioned and no imbalances affect main septic tank or its functionality.

Usually, the last step is to connect the inlet and outlet pipes to the septic tank and ensure that they are properly sealed to prevent any leaks. After the installation, our plumbers will fill the area around the tank with soil, compacting it as they go to ensure that the ground around the septic tank remains stable. They will also install a riser and cover over the access port to the septic tank, making it easier to access for future maintenance and cleaning.

Why Use Septic Tank Pumping Services?

Septic tanks handle human waste, it is important that they run safely and hygienically. A well-maintained, septic tank system shouldn’t have household waste to back up, smell or pose any sort of danger to your household. A full or inadequately maintained septic tank can cause your toilets and sinks to back up. It may also cause your yard to smell and potentially release phosphorus, nitrogen and other dangerous bacteria into your groundwater. This can affect your family, pets, and even your garden!

Sewer pumping services every three to five years cost several hundred dollars. On the other hand, a full septic tank installation cost can go up to $6,000 or more, depending on the job to be done.

Choosing a Septic System

Things to keep in mind during this process:

  • The type of tank: Different tank designs depends on location and the type of soil present in the yard. Knowing whether your soil is gravelly, sandy, or full of clay can help determine the best type of tank for your home.
  • The size of the tank: The size of tank you need will largely depend on your home’s daily water usage. A tank should generally be at least 1,000 gallons, but the larger the household, the larger the tank should be.
