Septic Tank Overflow
When a septic tank overflows, it’s clear that it doesn’t just disrupt your day—it creates a fast-moving mess. You might notice foul odors rolling across the yard, gurgling drains, toilets that won’t flush, or patches of soggy, dark soil that seem to spread by the hour. In an emergency, every minute counts. We arrive with high-capacity vacuum trucks, heavy-duty hoses, and safety gear ready to pump the tank, clear blockages, and stabilize the system so wastewater stops backing up into your sinks, tubs, and floors.
During an overflow, the source isn’t always obvious. We assess the inlet and outlet baffles, check for root intrusion, and look for clogs in the main line that can force effluent back into the house. If the drainfield is saturated, we’ll pump down the tank to relieve pressure, jet the lines if needed, and install a temporary bypass or effluent filter to prevent solids from washing into the field. Our licensed, insured technicians document what we find, explain the options in plain language, and prioritize steps that reduce immediate risk to your home and family.
Once the emergency pumping is complete, we help you prevent a repeat. We can schedule follow-up inspections, recommend a realistic pumping interval based on your household size and tank capacity, and show you simple habits that protect the system—like spacing out laundry loads and keeping grease, wipes, and disinfectant dumps out of the drains. If you need service fast, we’re prepared to respond day or night and we service Aurora and nearby communities with the equipment and knowledge to handle severe overflows safely.
