Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are some signs of septic tank problems?

    Common signs include slow drains, bad odours around the property, pooling water near the tank or unusually lush grass in one area. You may also notice gurgling sounds in pipes or wastewater backing up into sinks and toilets. These issues can indicate that the system is full, blocked or not functioning correctly, and should be addressed promptly to prevent further damage.

  • How often should a septic tank be serviced?

    Septic tanks typically need servicing every 3 to 5 years, depending on the size of the tank and how much it is used. Larger households or properties with higher water usage may require more frequent attention. Regular servicing helps remove build-up, maintain system efficiency and prevent unexpected failures.

  • What happens if a septic system fails?

    If a septic system fails, it can lead to wastewater backing up into the property, unpleasant odours and potential environmental hazards. In severe cases, it may require extensive repairs or replacement. Addressing problems early and maintaining the system regularly can help avoid these outcomes and keep everything operating safely.
