Septic Pumping and Other Services
Do You Have a Septic Tank?
If your home has a septic tank, it’s vital that your septic system functions optimally to keep your household running. Peter's Plumbing septic tank services include septic tank pumping, septic tank cleaning, and septic tank installation and repair.
Peter's Plumbing has expert plumbers on staff to provide septic tank services. We’ll inspect your septic system for proper component operation, look for leaks or signs of back-ups, and check the scum and sludge layers in the tank. We can also recommend an appropriate pumping schedule based on your household’s water usage and the size of the septic tank.
How Often Should It Get Pumped Out?
Septic systems should be inspected by a professional at least every 3 years. Systems with mechanical or electrical components may need to be inspected annually.
Most septic tanks require pumping every 3-5 years. Peter's Plumbing will pump out your septic tank and transport waste to an approved treatment and processing facility. Safety is our priority—we obey all environmental laws and regulations to ensure that septic tank waste is responsibly processed and poses no environmental hazards.
Are You A Commercial Business?
Routine septic tank pumping is the key to maintaining a properly functioning commercial septic system. Neglecting regular septic tank maintenance leaves your system susceptible to hardened grease that can cause clogged drains and wastewater backups in and out of the building.
The pumping frequency of a commercial septic system is dependent on several factors, including:
- Type of business
- Size of septic tank
- Wastewater volume
- Amount of organic material in the wastewater
Septic tanks with high concentrations of fat, oil, grease and chemicals require more frequent septic tank pumping for optimal function. A Roto-Rooter septic system inspection can help you determine the proper pumping schedule for your business
