Septic Preservation Services can help you ensure that your septic system continues to operate correctly by having your septic tank pumped. Septic pumping is essential every 3 – 5 years to ensure that your tank does not overflow . As you can imagine, it is not advisable to leave pumping too late because the results can be unpleasant and expensive to fix. The regularity that your tank needs to be pumped will vary slightly from various factors, including water usage and the size of your tank. For example, a family with 5 members, including teenagers, will typically use more water, and therefore, need their tank pumped sooner than a home with a retired couple. However, this too can vary dramatically if that couple have extended family visiting for a prolonged period. Essentially, if you are unsure, please do call our office, where we will be happy to answer any questions. Today we are pumping septic systems for customers in Mansfield, Norton, Lakeville, Rochester, Marion, Middleboro, and Carver, MA. If you need to schedule an appointment or if you have any questions please do contact our office at 877-378-4279 or visit www.allclearseptic.com

SEPTIC CLEANING & PUMPING

Part of any good Preventative Maintenance Program is to ensure that your septic system is properly cleaned and is pumped on a regular basis. It is important to know the facts about septic cleaning and pumping to avoid making costly mistakes.

SEPTIC CLEANING

Getting your tanks cleaned on a regular basis will help to improve the efficiency of your septic system and keep it running smooth. It is important to select your service provider carefully to ensure that you get quality work. Be sure that when comparing prices that you compare apples to apples. Some differences that may effect cost are the size of the tank, how deep the covers are buried, and if there is a filter to clean.

Septic Preservation takes pride in the work that we do, utilizing specialized equipment to locate specific areas of your system, such as a sewer camera that is used to investigate the inside of your sewer lines, and jetting equipment to clean the pipes within the leach field.

SEPTIC PUMPING

pumping Some pumping services will tell you that you need to get your septic system pumped every 6 months or on an annual basis. The truth is that a properly maintained septic system should only be pumped based on the accumulation of sludge and scum, which is typically every 2-5 years. Pumping too frequently is costly and usually not necessary.

If you would like a system evaluation and to know how often you should be pumping, give Septic Preservation a call for an evaluation and to set up quick and easy pumping arrangements.

Importance of Septic Tank Pumping

April 18, 2017/in Bob Silva, Massachusetts, Mattapoisett, norton, Septic Preservation Services, septic pumping

Septic Preservation Services is often called on by property owners who have septic problems created when they don’t carry out the basic maintenance necessary when you own a property with a septic system. A septic tank should be pumped every 3 – 5 years depending on various factors, including water usage and tank size. If the tank fills up with an excess of solids, the wastewater will not have enough time to settle in the tank. These excess solids will then pass on to the leach field, where they will clog the drain lines and soil. We have septic pumping scheduled today in Berlin, Hudson, Clinton, Northborough, Stow, Maynard, and Bolton, MA. It is unwise to put off septic pumping, so if you need to schedule an appointment or have questions about septic pump outs please do contact our office at 877-378-4279 or visit www.septicpreservation.com

Camouflaging Septic Tank Risers

April 12, 2017/in Bob Silva, Maine, Massachusetts, Mattapoisett, New Hampshire, norton

How do you keep your septic tank risers out of sight?

If you have had your septic system outfitted with the proper septic tank risers, you most likely have a cover sitting in the middle of your garden, lawn or somewhere unsightly. Keeping these covers easily accessible is important, but that doesn’t mean you have to put a sign on them! Hiding these risers is very simple and easy, and can be done without getting in the way of someone servicing your system.

The simplest way is to just put a light fake stone or decorative item on the cover. The key here is to keep it light, you don’t want to damage your system and the service company can pump the system as needed. A lighthouse, light birdbath or other decorative lawn ornament is an easy way to keep that riser out of sight!

Another way is to plant small plants around it. This will effectively camouflage the cover from most people. Keep in mind that should anyone need to access the tank, the plants may get in the way so be sure to leave space somewhere so the septic crew can get to the tank unhindered.

Rock features or stepping stones are another great way to keep the cover out of sight. Placing these around the cover with some light decorative item over the cover itself is a great way to hide the riser. It also may be a way to ad a nice decorative piece to your lawn!
