Septic Tank Overflow
When a septic tank’s on the brink, minutes matter. We start by stopping the surge at its source—shutting off water to fixtures, pausing laundry and dishwashers, and using floor drains and cleanouts to relieve pressure safely. While we’re en route, we’ll guide you to isolate any gurgling toilets or slow drains so wastewater doesn’t back up into tubs or sinks. That quick triage helps keep raw effluent from spilling across floors, damaging drywall, or soaking a drainfield.
On arrival, we assess the tank level, check baffles and filters, and pump down the system to restore breathing room. We clear blockages at the inlet or outlet and jet the line if grease, wipes, or roots are choking the flow. With transparent, affordable pricing, we lay out exactly what we’re doing—no surprises—so you know whether we’re just pumping, clearing a clog, or addressing a saturated drainfield that needs relief trenches or rest time.
To prevent a repeat overflow, we walk you through practical steps: stagger laundry and showers, fix running toilets, and keep kitchen fats and “flushable” wipes out of the system. We can install a high-water alarm to catch rising levels before they become a midnight emergency, and schedule routine maintenance based on household size and tank capacity. If you’re in the Memphis area we serve, we’ll tailor a maintenance plan to your soil and usage patterns, helping your septic system stay calm, clear, and under control.
