Septic Service in Buhler
Like other parts of your home, septic systems require some TLC to run and age well. Because they are out of sight, it’s easy to forget about this vital part of your home’s plumbing system.
However, a neglected or damaged septic system can pose serious health risks to your household, including the spread of harmful bacteria and viruses. It’s also unsafe for the environment, as untreated sewage can contaminate groundwater and nearby bodies of water.
Pay attention to these early signs that you need septic services:
- Drains release slowly
- Plumbing makes gurgling sounds
- Standing water near the tank
- Raw sewage backing up in drains
If you experience any of these problems in your home, calling for septic service sooner rather than later can prevent complete septic failure.
When a septic system fails, sewage appears around the tank, in the drain field, or backing up in pipes in your home. Sewage contains contaminants and pathogens that make water unsafe for drinking and bathing and can even harm vegetation.
Some common reasons sewer systems fail include blocked inlet or outlet baffles, a saturated drain field, or a dirty, overfilled septic tank. Investing in septic maintenance offers the best protection against septic failure.
Septic professionals recommend scheduling an inspection and pumping service every 3-5 years. But what happens when the system has already failed?
If raw sewage is backing up into your home’s drains or you notice soggy spots near the sewer line, you need emergency septic repair. Based on their findings, they will make recommendations, such as drain cleaning, tank pumping, drain field repair or replacement, or septic tank replacement.
