Septic Tank Cleaning Solutions

Cleaning your septic tank is an essential maintenance task for homeowners. If not done regularly, your septic tank system is prone to clogging and may fail completely. Cleaning your septic tank isn’t just important to maintaining the health of your system but it’s also important to ensure the health of you and your family.

Our septic tank cleaners perform a thorough cleaning of the interior of your septic tank to remove accumulated tree roots, leaves and other debris. Once cleared, our technicians conduct a hose and scrub down, as well as inspecting the inlets, outlets and lids to make sure they are up to scratch.

Proper septic tank cleaning can help prevent full system failure and costly cleanup and replacement of your tank. You can rely on the experience and expertise of the septic tank cleaners at Express Wastewater Solutions to get the job done quickly and efficiently.

Septic Tank Pump Out Maintenance Services

A septic tank works by collecting your solid household waste or effluent and turning it into sludge. Once broken down, this liquid waste flows out of your septic tank and into a series of underground areas called absorption trenches or leach fields.

To make sure your septic tank is running properly, our technicians recommend investing in regular pumping and other maintenance practices. We recommend that you pump out your septic tank every 2 to 5 years to avoid running into common problems like cracked pipes, clogs, blockages and waste overflowing into your home and property.

Keeping on top of your preventative septic tank maintenance is a great way to make sure your septic system continues to function properly and effectively for years into the future.
