24/7 Emergency Septic Pumping

• Sewage backing up into toilets, tubs, showers or floor drains
• Wastewater or sewage surfacing in the yard over the tank or drain field
• Slow drains throughout the house, or toilets and pipes gurgling when water runs
• Strong sewage odors inside the home or around the tank
• A high-water alarm sounding on your septic system
• Water pooling around the tank lid or a cleanout

One slow sink is often just a plumbing clog. When several fixtures back up at once, the tank may be full and need pumping.

• Stop using water where you can: hold off on laundry, the dishwasher, showers and extra flushing.
• Keep children and pets away from any area where sewage has surfaced.
• Do not open the tank lid or lean into the tank. The gases inside are dangerous.
• Skip chemical drain openers. They will not empty a full tank and can harm the system.
• If you know where the tank lid is, clear the area and unlock any gates so our truck can reach it.
• Avoid contact with sewage indoors and wash your hands well after any cleanup.

Emergency pumping is offered based on availability. Our trucks and crews may already be out on other calls, so when you call, we will let you know what we can do. Emergency and after-hours pumping also carries an additional charge beyond a regularly scheduled pumping. Please ask about it, and if your situation can wait, we are happy to book a routine pumping during business hours instead.
