Our Septic Services
Septic Tank Pumping
Most tanks need pumping every three to five years. Skip it too long and solids start moving into your drain field, which is how a simple pump-out turns into a system replacement. Learn more about septic tank pumping

Septic Questions, Answered
How often should I pump my septic tank?
Every three to five years is the standard guidance for a typical household. Larger families, smaller tanks, and homes with garbage disposals may need it more often. When in doubt, have the sludge level checked — it’s cheaper than a new drain field.
What are the signs my septic system is failing?
Drains that are slow throughout the house, gurgling sounds, sewage odors inside or outside, unusually lush green grass or soggy spots over the drain field, and — the obvious one — sewage backing up into the home. Any of these warrant a call.
I don’t know where my septic tank is. Can you still help?
Yes. Locating buried tanks is routine work. We can find it, uncover the access lid, and while we’re there, map it for you so you know where it is going forward.
Do I need a permit to replace my septic system in Virginia?
Yes. Virginia requires a permit through the local health department before installing or replacing a septic system, and the site has to be evaluated first. We handle the evaluation and permitting process for you.
What’s the difference between pumping and an inspection?
Pumping removes the built-up solids and scum from your tank — it’s maintenance. An inspection evaluates the condition of the whole system: tank, baffles, and drain field — it’s a health check, usually done when buying or selling a home.
My home is on well water. Is that a problem?
Not at all. Most homes outside the town limits in Wythe and Smyth counties run on well water and septic. Just keep the well head uphill and away from the drain field, and have your well water tested periodically.
