Reliable Septic Tank Pumping Services

When it comes to keeping your plumbing functional, many homeowners forget about a key piece of maintenance—septic tank pumping. While it isn’t the most exciting expense, it can save you thousands of dollars and extend the life of your septic system.
A healthy septic system is clean and flows well. Ideally, it operates undetected by homeowners and neighbors because no one wants to know what their septic tank is doing. To maintain this, a septic system should be pumped every three to five years.
Schedule an appointment with the trusted septic system pumpers at Mr. Rooter Plumbing^® today and extend the life of your septic system. Our courteous plumbing professionals look forward to serving you!

Why Timely Septic Tank Pumping Is Important

Because septic tanks handle human waste, it is important that they run safely and hygienically. A well-maintained septic tank shouldn’t smell or pose a hazard to your household. A full or inadequately maintained septic tank will likely smell and potentially release dangerous bacteria, phosphorus, and nitrogen into your groundwater. This can affect your family, pets, and even your garden!

Determining Plumbing Service Costs

In our years of experience, we have found that our customers prefer an accurate price based on their exact plumbing problem.

By allowing us to diagnose your plumbing problem in person, you will know exactly what it will take to get the job done.

A typical plumbing inspection can vary in price depending on the size of your home or property. With Mr. Rooter®, an in-home inspection is completely free with repair or any other type of plumbing service. This includes an in-depth inspection from a trained and licensed plumbing professional.

Many homeowners are unable to perform routine maintenance on their septic systems. Even so, you should keep the signs of a full septic tank in mind so you can schedule a septic pumping service at the right time.

These signs might mean your septic tank is full:
- A strong odor of sewage in the yard
- A backed-up toilet
- A drain you can’t unclog
- Standing water in the yard
Some newer septic systems even have built-in alarms that flash and make noise when the tank is nearly full. If this happens, don’t delay—call a reputable plumber known for pumping septic tanks.
Several factors dictate the interval at which you need to request a septic tank pump. These include household size and tank size. In general, you can have your tank pumped every three to five years.

Tank size impacts your ideal pumping frequency by affecting how much waste the tank can hold. The smallest tanks may need to be pumped yearly, while larger tanks can wait five years between pumps.

Household size also affects how frequently you need to pump your septic tank. Larger families create more waste, while smaller families create less. This ultimately changes how quickly your tank fills up.

While looking for septic system pumpers near you may not be your favorite pastime, you may like to consider exploring this crucial service if you can relate to these signs:
- You smell a strong sewage odor in your yard
- Your toilet(s) are backed up
- You can’t unclog a drain
- There is standing water in the yard
- Your septic system’s alarm is flashing and making noise (newer septic systems)
In many cases, people will use the terms cleaning and pumping interchangeably. However, they do have slightly different definitions that matter when speaking to a plumbing professional.

Pumping specifically refers to removing liquid and solid material from the tank. This helps maintain the bacteria in the tank, which helps break down waste and reduces the interval at which you need to pump your septic tank.

Cleaning is when everything in the septic tank is fully cleaned out. This does not need to be done nearly as often as pumping.
Are you curious about septic tank pumping prices? How much it costs to pump a septic tank can depend on its size, where you live, how frequently you request a septic tank pump out, and your tank’s usage. The average cost is around $400, but expect to pay as much as $600 in some areas.
When a septic tank sits out of sight and out of mind, it’s easy to forget about that all-important pumping. However, frequent pumping can be crucial for your septic tank’s longevity.

Aim to request this important service from septic tank pumping services providers at least every three to five years. Maintaining a regular pumping schedule may prevent a buildup of solids that may lead to premature system failure.
Pumping a septic tank is a job best left to the professionals. Septic tank pump out experts will typically pump the solid waste out of your septic tank through two large access ports.
