Every drain in the house is slow
One slow fixture is that fixture. Everything slow at once points further out, at the main line or at a tank that is due.

What We Do for Homes
If something is backing up right now, call rather than reading. We are open 24 hours and that is exactly the sort of job we move a truck for.
Septic Tank Cleaning
Routine pumping on a schedule, or an emergency when the tank is full.
Learn more →High-Pressure Sewer Jetting
Cuts grease, sludge and roots off the pipe wall instead of boring a hole through them.
Learn more →TV Sewer Inspection
A camera down the line shows the condition of the pipe before anyone digs.
Learn more →Electronic Sewer Locating
Traces where a tank or a buried line actually runs, instead of guessing.
Learn more →RootX Root Control
Treats root regrowth rather than cutting it out and waiting for it to come back.
Learn more →Emergency Services
Open 24 hours, 7 days, including holidays. Somebody who knows the work answers.

Most people do not call knowing whether they need a tank cleaned, a line jetted or a field treated. They call because something in the house is behaving oddly. These are the usual ones and what they normally turn out to be.
Gurgling when the washer empties
Air is not moving the way it should, which usually means a partial blockage downstream. Jetting puts the line back to full diameter.
Sewage smell in the yard
Often a tank at capacity, sometimes a lid or a joint that is not sealing. Worth looking at before it becomes the next one on this list.
Wet ground or bright green grass
Over the leach bed, that is the field taking on more than it can pass. Pumping buys a few weeks, so it is worth knowing early whether the tank or the field is at fault. A camera and a locate settle it.
The same drain blocks every few months
Something is causing it. A camera finds out whether it is roots, grease or a break, so the fix lasts longer than the last one.
Sewage coming back up indoors
Stop running water and call. That is an emergency callout and we are open at any hour.
While You Are Waiting
If a line is backing up and a truck is on its way, a few things help and cost you nothing.
- Stop putting water into the system. No laundry, no dishwasher, no long showers. Every gallon you send down has to go somewhere, and right now it does not have anywhere to go.
- Keep people and pets away from anything that has come up. Standing sewage is a health matter, not just a mess.
- Do not open the tank yourself. The gases in a septic tank are dangerous and the lids are heavier than they look. Leave it for the crew.
- Have a rough idea where the tank or cleanout is if you know it. If nobody does, that is fine, we can locate it.
- Clear the route for a truck. Cars off the drive, gates unlocked, and tell us if the access is tight or soft underfoot.
What It Costs
We do not publish prices, because the same job is a different job on two different properties. What moves the number is the size of the tank or the length of line, how easily a truck can reach it, the condition of what we find, and whether anything is needed alongside the main job.
You will have a figure before work starts rather than after it, and estimates are free. If what you actually need is cheaper than what you called about, we will say so.
Not Sure Which You Need?
Describe what is happening and we will tell you what it takes to fix. A tank that is due, a line that keeps blocking and a field that has failed all look the same from inside the house, and they are three different jobs.
Often the honest answer is cheaper than the one you were expecting. A field that seems to be failing is frequently a tank nobody has cleaned in eight years.
