EXPERT SEPTIC INSTALLATION SERVICES IN GREENSBORO, NC

A septic system is an underground system that deals with the dirty work of wastewater treatment, usually in areas where homes aren't hooked up to city sewer lines. This hardworking system treats and gets rid of household wastewater by separating the solids from the liquids, breaking down the yucky stuff, and letting the treated water seep back into the soil in the drain field.

There are tell-tale signs that your septic system might be crying out for a replacement:

• Persistent smells that make your nose wrinkle
• Sinks, bathtubs, or toilets that take forever to drain and sewage backups that make an unwelcome return
• Soggy spots or suspiciously lush patches of green in your yard near the septic tank or drain field
• The need to pump out your septic tank way more often than the typical every 3-5 years
• An antique of a septic system (over 20 years old or not keeping up with local regulations)

The time it takes to install a septic system can vary quite a bit. It can depend on things like tank size, the types of septic systems available, soil type, and even the weather. In general, though, a septic system installation usually wraps up in about one to three days. But, if your system's a bit more complex or your site's a bit trickier, it might take a bit longer.

Septic systems require regular maintenance and septic tank pumping. You should pump out your septic tank every 3-5 years to clear out the buildup of solids. It's also a good idea to give it a checkup at least once a year to spot any issues or budding problems. Of course, how often you need to do these things can vary depending on how much your system's used, its size, and its type.

While there's no law that says you can't try to install a septic system yourself, it's not something we'd recommend. Professional septic installation services bring the necessary know-how, the right tools, septic tank materials, and a familiarity with local regulations to the table to ensure a safe, efficient, and compliant installation. Diving into a septic system installation without the right training and experience can end up costing you big because of costly errors, system breakdowns, or even legal penalties. Give us a call, and we'll guide you through the septic installation process.
