Services
What We Offer
Inspection and Assessment
Our tank and septic system inspectors in Norfolk, Chesapeake, Virginia Beach, Portsmouth, Suffolk, and throughout Hampton Roads inspect for overflows, slow drainage, unpleasant odors, or sewage backups, and to identify septic tank access points. We measure sludge and scum levels to determine the condition of the system. Pipes, baffles, and the drain field are checked for blockages or damage that could impact performance.
Pumping the Septic Tank
A vacuum truck removes accumulated sludge, scum, and liquid waste to prevent buildup and system failure. Pumping frequency depends on household size, tank capacity, and usage, but we recommend pumping every 3-5 years. Regular pumping ensures the system operates efficiently and minimizes potential damage.
Cleaning and Flushing
After pumping, residual sludge is flushed out to prevent blockages. Baffles and effluent filters are cleaned or replaced to maintain proper flow and filtration. Our team checks inlet and outlet pipes for obstructions and clears them as needed.
Checking for Leaks and Damage
With our septic inspection services in the greater Norfolk area, we will look at the septic tank for cracks, leaks, or other structural issues that could cause system failure. Identifying and addressing these issues early helps prevent costly repairs. The drain field and all essential components are also evaluated to ensure they are working properly.
Restoring the System
Once the inspection and maintenance are complete, tank lids are securely replaced to keep the system sealed. We update maintenance records to help track future service needs. If any repairs or additional work are required, we provide recommendations to keep the system functioning at its best.
Septic System Maintenance
To keep the system running efficiently, property owners should avoid flushing non-biodegradable materials and limit excessive water use. Harsh chemicals that disrupt the balance of bacteria should be minimized. Regular inspections and routine pumping prevent system failures and costly repairs.
