Choose the Right Service for Your Tank

A septic system is an expensive thing to replace, so you must make sure it is properly taken care of. Research carefully when choosing a septic maintenance provider.

You have probably heard people use the terms septic tank “cleaning” and septic tank “pumping” in the same fashion; however, these terms shouldn’t be used interchangeably since they refer to two different services. By knowing the industry definitions of these services, you can feel confident in knowing exactly what your septic tank needs from your local septic company.

Septic Tank Cleaning & Septic Tank Pumping: Defined

Oftentimes, you may hear “pumping” and “cleaning” being used interchangeably. However, the two words refer to two different processes in regard to septic tanks. Septic tank cleaning and pumping are both important tasks that will maintain the health of your tank.

Septic tank pumping is a routine procedure where mostly liquids and some floating solids and sludge are removed from the tank. This procedure should be done every three to five years to prevent any problems within your tank. Septic tank cleaning is a procedure that involves removing all liquid and sludge from the tank. Cleanings usually take place when tanks are experiencing problems such as drain issues or backflow. This difference might seem small, but it can make a big impact on your septic system’s performance.

When you’re looking for a septic company, it’s important to find one that offers both septic tank cleaning and pumping so you can get the well-rounded service you deserve. Cornish Burton Sigala Septic Services offers these convenient services to homeowners in Decatur, Weatherford, Fort Worth, Benbrook, Kennedale, Justin, Azle, Willow Park, Joshua & New Fairview, TX and the surrounding areas.
