Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I pump my septic tank in Kingston?
You should have your septic tank pumped about every 3 to 5 years for a typical household. This schedule helps prevent solids from building up too much and protects your drainfield and system health. The exact timing can vary based on factors like how many people live in your home, your water usage habits, whether you use a garbage disposal, tank size, and measured sludge/scum levels. Some homes with heavy use or garbage disposals may need pumping more often.
Where is my septic tank located and do I need to uncover it?
Servicing your septic system will require accessing its ports, and for modern systems, they often have risers installed (a green or black access cover visible at the surface). If you have a visible riser, just clear the area around it so our technician has easy access. Otherwise, digging up these ports will be required. Call us first and we’ll look up your property’s public records to find the “as-built” drawing for your system. If the location is unknown and requires extensive searching, or if you are requesting that we dig it up, there are additional service fees. To save time and money, try to expose the lid or riser before we arrive!
What should I avoid flushing or putting down my drain?
Anything that is not human waste or standard toilet paper. The septic system relies on the presence of healthy bacteria. It’s important to avoid fats, oils, grease, harsh chemicals, paints, solvents, excessive antibacterial cleaners, along with “flushable wipes”, feminine hygiene products, diapers, and cotton swabs. The list of what not to flush goes on.
What are the signs of a failing or full septic system?
If you are experiencing these red flags, your system likely requires immediate professional attention.
- Slow drains, gurgling sounds coming from plumbing
- Sewage backup into your home (toilets, tubs, sinks)
- Foul odors around the septic tank or the drainfield
- Standing water or unusually lush, green, or spongy grass over your drainfield
What’s included with septic pumping?
Each septic pumping includes the removal, hauling, and proper disposal of all waste in accordance with local regulations. We’ll also thoroughly clean the tank of debris, perform a visual inspection for cracks or damage, inspect other key components, and clean the filter, if present. We will also file all required paperwork with Kitsap Public Health.
