Typical Septic System Challenges
Detached Dividing Wall: Many septic tank owners deal with detached dividing walls when their tank is old and/or not regularly pumped. Full Tank: An overfilled septic tank can cause sewage overflow, disrupt the drain field, and create surface pooling. Roots: Often, people seek help from service professionals for septic system issues when the roots of large plants, such as trees, start growing toward septic tanks, causing extensive damage. Wall Corrosion: Bacterial activity can result in hydrogen sulfide in your tank, which can be corrosive to metal components and cause eventual failure of your septic tank’s walls.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars★ ★ ★ ★ ★☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆My elderly mother lives in a rural area of Spokane County, and I live in the Tri-Cities. Very early in the morning on a Thursday my mother notified me that her septic tank was backing up through the floor drain in the downstairs shower. At 7:00 a.m. I started calling around to find a septic tank pumping service that could help us in our emergency situation. I found one and had the septic tank pumped at about 11:30 a.m., but that didn't solve the problem and I was informed that nothing was coming out of the sewer pipe into the septic tank. At about 1:00 p.m. I called Mr Rooter in Spokane and Taylor in the office took my call. She put my mother on the schedule for the afternoon between 2:00 and 5:00 p.m. for a plumber to help us out if one became available and she promised that if no one was available by the end of the work day that someone would be assigned to visit my mom's house in the evening. A Mr Rooter plumber technician by the name of Michael was assigned to my mother's problem and arrived at about 6:30 p.m. Thursday evening. Michael arrived on the scene and proceeded to evaluate the problem. Michael ended up cleaning out some roots that had grown into the sewer pipe between the septic tank and the house, and then reviewed the pipeline with a camera to ensure that it was clean and that the problem was solved. During Michael's visit my mother also had him give her a quote to replace an old faucet at the kitchen sink. Michael provided the quote and was told to proceed with the installation, but the faucet was not available that evening and he promised to come back the next day to install it. Michael came back in the afternoon on the next day, Friday, and installed the faucet, just as he had promised. Throughout the entire process the personnel at Mr Rooter from Taylor in the office, who originally took my call, to Michael the Plumber arriving on the scene, every step in the process was handled extremely well to keep my mother and I fully informed. My mother and I especially appreciated Michael's patience when explaining his recommendations at each step in the process for solving the problem. We found Michael to be very knowledgeable, courteous, attentive, and helpful. He seemed to really care about my mother's problem and wanted to do everything he could to get it fixed as quickly and as efficiently as possible. We were also very impressed with how well the Mr Rooter office and Michael kept us informed as to when someone could be dispatched and when they would arrive. Thank you Mr Rooter and Michael for a job well done under extremely difficult and stressful circumstances! We will be recommending you to our friends and neighbors due to the EXCELLENT customer service that we experienced from you!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars★ ★ ★ ★ ★☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆Parker and Alex came out to help us in a pinch. they diagnosed with expertise and made sure not to garantee anything. thats a huge denominator in the construction industry today. People make promises they can't keep, these boys did not. they were HONEST……that goes a long way with people. They explained everything they were doing and made sure to explain why as well. They also had another major attribute that a lot of people in the industry nowadays dont have, they were personable and very kind. I'd recommend this company to anyone that's looking for an honest company to work with. ask for Alex and Parker and when they leave your house you'll be thinking wow those are two good dudes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Septic System Repair in Cheney, Washington
If you’re new to septic system repairs and what’s involved, you may find the answers you’re looking for below. For information on our plumbing services in and around the city, contact Mr. Rooter Plumbing® in Cheney, Washington at any time.
-
Your location, property type, and the trusted septic tank service professionals you choose can all contribute to the costs of replacing a septic tank. Think about the type of pump you’d like to run with your septic tank, like a centrifugal or turbine pump, since your pump type can contribute to your septic tank replacement costs. Some septic systems and tanks are more cost-effective than others, so keep this in mind before choosing a conventional septic system or something more advanced like waterless, aerobic, or mound. The larger the septic tank you need to install with the help of a septic tank replacement company, the more you can expect to pay compared to if you were installing a small one.
-
There can be many variables when working out the average cost of repairing a septic tank, but simple repairs can be as little as $650, while large repairs can be as much as $6,500. Damage type is one of the leading factors in the price tag for septic tank repairs, with extensive issues like major cracks and collapsed drain fields typically costing thousands of dollars compared to minor damage like light cracks that can cost hundreds. Your chosen service professional will likely charge more to repair a large tank compared to a small one based on the cost of their time and materials. If your tank is in a hard-to-reach location, buried deeply, or generally hard to access, you may pay more to have it repaired compared to an easily accessible septic tank.
-
The care over a septic tank’s lifetime can often determine its lifespan and how soon you need to replace it. Well-installed, well-maintained, and regularly pumped septic tanks can last multiple years, with an average of 15-40, compared to poorly maintained septic tanks that may not last as long. What your septic tank is made of can contribute to how long it lasts, with steel septic tanks often lasting 15 to 20 years compared to concrete, which may last 40 years and even longer. Several factors contribute to how many years you can expect your septic tank to work at its best, including how often you pump it, how well it was designed and installed, and even soil and site conditions.
-
You might not know where your septic tank is right now, but many surface clues can help you find it, such as indents in the ground, extra healthy vegetation and grass growth, and disturbances to the earth around the area. If you have recently bought your home, refer to information left by the former owner and your inspection records, as either of these documents may have the septic tank’s location. Finding your septic tank’s location can sometimes be as straightforward as referring to the building plans for your property as the septic tank’s location can sometimes be on them. If you’ve tried everything and had no luck finding your septic tank, contact your local trusted septic tank service provider, who can use special tools to help you find it.
-
Don’t delay addressing a collapsed septic tank with trusted septic tank service providers because any leaking sewage can pose a health and safety risk for property occupants. You should not use your collapsed septic tank for any period of time since it can mean your septic system isn’t functioning as it should, leading to problems with wastewater treatment and disposal. Collapsed septic systems can cause all manner of problems that continue to worsen with use, so it’s not advisable to continue using it once you’re aware it has collapsed. There may be legal problems and health and safety violations if you continue to use your septic system after your septic tank has collapsed.
-
Regular septic tank pumping can go a long way toward maintaining a healthy septic system and extending the life of your system. Many drain and toilet products can cause damage to septic systems over time, so consider using only septic system-safe products and be mindful of what you flush. The upkeep of your septic tank drain field is crucial to the health of your septic tank, so take simple actions like planting trees away from it, parking vehicles away from it, and not installing drainage systems or sump pumps by it. Efficient water use, septic system-safe products like toilet paper, and not flushing harsh chemicals can all go a long way toward ensuring your septic tank and system is well-maintained.
-
After looking high and low for your septic tank without any luck, call in a septic tank repair companiy with specialized equipment for locating septic tanks. Septic tank repairs with a damaged baffle can involve inspecting the old part to confirm it’s the issue, ordering a new one to replace it, fitting it, and testing it to ensure the problem is solved. Some septic tank repairs require excavation of your septic tank to uncover maintenance holes and access ports, to ensure work can be carried out. System testing is an integral part of septic tank repairs, which can involve looking for signs of leakage and malfunction before and after repairs.
-
Many homeowners’ insurance providers will cover the costs of septic tank repairs when damage happens due to events outside your control, like hail, a windstorm, a fire, or lightning. Septic tank damage caused by explosions may be covered by your homeowners’ insurance policy, enabling you to carry out repairs or total replacement of your septic system. Talk to your insurance company about possible coverage for septic tank repairs caused by vandalism and natural disasters, depending on the cause. You typically won’t receive insurance funds to cover the costs of septic tank repairs if the cause of the damage relates to poor maintenance practices or typical wear and tear.
-
Septic system service providers regularly attend the properties of homeowners and business owners for issues like drain field and pipe blockages and clogs. Many homeowners and businesses deal with septic tank cracks that lead to leaks and the need for repairs and replacement, often due to pressure, age, and ground movement. You may encounter issues like sewage backing up and overflowing if you’re a high-usage household or business and don’t prioritize regular maintenance, repairs, and septic tank pumping. If your drain field was poorly installed, your septic system is old, or you have trees planted too close to it, you can experience a number of related issues.
-
Many small cracks in septic tanks can be repaired by septic system service professionals using concrete or epoxy sealant products specially designed for septic tanks. Many of the best septic tank service providers recommend the use of septic tank patch kits with adhesives and patching compounds for light cracks in septic tanks. If you have a large or structural crack in your septic tank, a trained service professional may deem it suitable for repairs by using extra materials to reinforce the damaged area. When cracks in septic systems are severe, septic tank replacement is often a more sensible option than repairs.
