Frequently Asked Questions

Are septic tanks a pain to maintain?
Not if serviced on a regular basis.
What happens if a septic tank is never pumped out?
You will typically get a large build up of solids which will typically lead to the septic system backing up and can possibly risk damaging your drain field which can be very costly to fix.
How often is it needed to clean a septic tank?
Well every septic system is different. If we were to service your septic tank by seeing the current condition of the tank and knowing the average number of people living in the home we would then be able to give you an estimate on how often to have your septic system serviced. But for the majority of people a ruff estimate is at least every 3 to 5 years.
How many years is a septic system good for?
Well once again all septic systems are different and many different things can determine how long a septic system will last but if serviced properly we tend to see an average of 30-35 years.

How is a septic tank emptied?
First we will need to locate the septic tank. We will typically then dig up one of the two access lids. Once in the septic tank are goal is to remove all the solids and liquids leaving about 4 to 6 inches of water in the bottom for bacteria. We will then check and clear the baffle of any debris and make sure the system is flowing properly.
What should you do if your septic tank is full?
Cut off all water going to the septic tank before it backs up into the home and then call Palmetto Septic.
What is the maintenance process for a septic tank?
Having the tank pumped on a regular basis and in some cases the use of additives may be helpful such as Rid x or root killers.

What People Are Saying About Our Services

I just had my septic tank pumped by the Palmetto Septic Team. They did an excellent job. #1 they were on time. At 8am, the set appointment time, they were at my door, #2 before they even started digging they did a cursory property check, concerned about the age of the tank. #3 the pumping was simple and straightforward, doing the minimum damage to the landscaping. #4 the price was very reasonable. Would absolutely recommend them and use them again.
