Septic Pumping

Septic Pumping Services Throughout Fort Worth, TX

Decatur, TX | Weatherford, TX | Fort Worth, TX | Benbrook, TX | Kennedale, TX | 

Standard septic systems have solid materials that settle in the tank. These solids can become a problem over time. Septic tank pumping can help maintain your septic system and ensure it runs smoothly. Built-up sludge and solids can affect flow from the tank out into the ground. Septic tanks require bacteria colonies, which break down biodegradable matter. The bacteria colonies require “food,” which is found in our wastewater, but not in detergent.

With our septic pump truck, we can sufficiently clean the scum, sludge and effluent from your septic tank. The frequency in which you need to schedule a septic tank pumping depends on the tank size, the family size, and whether you use a garbage disposal unit or not. A 1,500-gallon tank that is used by a family of four should be pumped every 3 or 4 years. Please contact us if you have any questions about our septic pumping services. We proudly serve Weatherford, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Benbrook, TX; Kennedale, TX; Justin, TX; Azle, TX; Willow Park, TX; Joshua, TX; New Fairview, TX and nearby areas.

Signs You Need Septic Pumping Service

Septic pumping is one home improvement service that you absolutely do not want to leave until the last minute. Overflowing or backing up septic tanks can create serious, gross, expensive, and hazardous issues for your property and plumbing. Keep an eye open for the following signs that it's time for service, and contact us to schedule septic tank pumping if you notice any of them.


  • Slow Drains: If you've noticed that your household water is draining more slowly than usual, don't ignore the issue. If plungers or commercial drain cleaning products have not worked, it might be time to schedule a septic tank pumping service to ensure that your tank isn't clogged or full.
  • Pooling Water: If your lawn and drain field area are filling with areas of pooling water, there might be something clogging your septic tank. It could also indicate that your tank is full. Water pooling in the grass around your drain field is a tell-tale sign that you need septic pumping service.
  • Lush Plant Life: If the grass around your septic tank is starting to look extra green and healthy, it likely means that the liquid in your system is rising higher than you would like and providing extra fertilizer to that area of your lawn. Our team can provide septic pumping service to solve the problem.
  • Foul Odors: Household wastewater includes all water that you send down a drain. It consists of water from kitchen and bathroom sinks, bathtubs, dishwasher, clothes washer, and the toilet. As your septic tank begins to fill up with your household waste water, it will begin to emit unpleasant odors. If you're noticing unusually strong smells coming from the area around your septic tank, it might be time to call our professionals.
  • Sewage Backup: If you're seeing sewage backing up your drains and back into your home, contact our team right away. Sewage backup is unmistakable; it is usually black and smelly.
  • It's Time: You should regularly schedule septic pumping service to avoid any of the unpleasant effects from the list above. The frequency of your pumping service will depend on your tank's size, age, and condition, but the general rule of thumb is always the same - if the recommended time period between pumping is approaching, schedule your service as soon as possible!

What Happens If You Don’t Get Your Septic Pumped?

Neglecting to get your septic tank pumped regularly can have serious consequences for both your property and your wallet. If you don't get your septic pumped, you could be looking at:

  • System Failures- Solid waste and sludge can accumulate in your septic tank and clog the system, leading to a complete failure. When this happens, wastewater may flow back into your home, toilets may overflow, and your drains may run slow, causing a lot of inconveniences that could have been prevented.
  • Repairs/Replacements- Neglecting to get your septic tank pumped can lead to costly repairs or even the need for a complete system replacement. Extensive excavation, new pipes, and restoration of the drain field are some of the things you may be looking at.
  • Environmental Contamination- Excess solids in your septic can escape into the drain field if not pumped properly. This can result in wastewater pooling on the surface, creating a breeding ground for bacteria. The contaminated water can seep into nearby groundwater sources posing a risk to human health and the environment.
