Septic System Emergencies Around Big Lake
Septic systems are out of sight, and unfortunately, for most people, oftentimes out of mind… until it’s too late. Many homeowners don’t consider having any pro-active repair work on their septic systems and as such, emergencies arise. How quickly the problem is attended to can result in the difference between having a system that can be repaired and having a system which now requires replacement. As you might imagine, repairs can cost thousands of dollars less than replacement options. Knowing how to tell when your system is in distress and what to do when these signs become evident can help keep your septic system working as efficiently as it can.

And then, one day, when returning home from work or from grocery shopping, we open the front door, and we are greeted by the unmistakable odor of sewage.

Generally, septic systems are not the same as the common city sewer systems familiar to people. In the city sewer system, once the unwanted waste has been flushed down a sewer drain, it is transported to a water treatment plant for treatment. Conversely, septic tanks are owned by people and are located on private land. Waste drained down a septic drain doesn’t go very far from its source. It’s being stored in an underground tank until a septic pumping firm is contacted to empty it. And so, it is the homeowners’ responsibility to schedule when to pump the tank.
