A septic system is one of the most critical and expensive utility components in your home or business and that is why it should be a top priority that it’s maintained regularly and properly to increase the longevity of the system and to ensure you don’t have any unforeseen emergencies.
A septic system should be pumped every 1-2 years ideally depending on the usage, with a 3 year maximum . While there is many variables to how often it should be pumped there are key factors that play a role in determining the proper schedule such as the size of the tank and age of the system, the number of people occupying the property , the age group of people using the facilities, and other factors such as the daily water usage from laundry and dishes etc.
At Latour ~ Wilson we understand your life is busy and its easy to forget about your septic maintenance and that’s why we make maintaining your septic system a simple task to remember . It is our goal to keep your emergencies at a minimum so to do this we first ask a series of questions on occupancy and usage , then we can come up with a proper maintenance schedule that fits your property and families needs.
Once a proper schedule is determined we follow up in advance with reminders when service is approaching or due so your never behind on your preventative maintenance, you can then schedule pumping and cleaning services in a timely manner.
We encourage all clients to schedule service one month in advance before your anticipated due date and schedule services between February and November before the ground freezes to ensure service can be provided in a timely manner.
We require all clients to dig up there access lids for pumping 1-2 days in advance before your anticipated pumping date and leave a bucket or cone over the cap to identify the location easily and leave a garden hose out and accessible for the driver.
If you cannot locate or dig your access cap up please call us in advance to discuss options on locating , digging and installing risers for your septic tank for regular service access.
Tanks with covers deeper than 1’ will require the installation of approved access risers and lids to be installed and brought up to code and finish grade for easy locating and accessibility. Risers are a smarter and safer option to keep your septic maintained properly year round.
We recommend clients to put a plow stake bye your inlet cover and center access cover before winter for easy locating in the event there’s snow on the ground and you have an emergency.
