Septic Tank Cleaning Services
The septic or holding tank must be dug open to the septic tank lid, with the lid removed for our technician. Our truck must be able to get within 60 feet of the tank on hard ground (driveway or road) or additional fees will apply. A service call fee will be charged if we arrive and the tank is not exposed. In winter months, homeowners are required to have their driveways plowed and salted, and a path cleared to the septic tank.

Septic Dye Testing
Septic Dye Tests involve flushing a special florescent dye down a toilet or other drain. The dye itself does not make anything happen. It is simply a colored indicator that can identify water found outside as having come from the fixture where the dye was introduced. It’s the volume of water introduced into the system that forms the actual “test”. If waste water is coming to the surface (an unsanitary condition indicating serious septic failure) one may see dye in that water, provided the septic system is flowing at common rates. A Septic Dye Test will by no means find every septic failure, but this methods finds many failures that otherwise are unnoticed by a home buyer until shortly after moving-in. Septic Dye Tests are complimentary to and should precede any further inspection steps taken such as pumping the septic tank. Do not permit the septic tank to be pumped before the Septic Dye Test – that will prevent a valid test of the system and in particular, prevents loading of the drain field.
