Exposed sewage is not only an unpleasant mess, but it can also pose serious health risks to anyone who comes in contact with the bacteria including people and pets.

When to Call for 24/7 Emergency Septic Pumping

There are several signs your septic system may require emergency services. Below are the most common signs.

• Your drainfield is flooding: in some cases, emergency septic issues may not appear inside of your home, but outside. If you are experiencing pooling water near your septic tank or drainfield, that’s a sure sign something is wrong with your septic system.
• Your toilets and drains are backing up: backed up toilets and drains are other surefire indications that you’re in need of emergency septic services. To help protect your family from becoming exposed to hazardous septic waste, you’ll want to have your septic system repaired immediately.
• Sewage odor in your plumbing fixtures: when your toilets and drains are backing up, they may begin to emit foul odors.
• Your septic alarm is going off: most modern septic systems are now equipped with alarms that will go off when there’s a leak, clog or another type of maintenance issue.
• There are high levels of nitrates in your well water: if you’ve tested your well water recently and it’s showing high levels of nitrates, this is a sign of improper disposal of human waste. You’ll want to have your septic system inspected as septic tank waste often contains disease-causing bacteria and viruses.

These signs are most commonly caused by infrequent septic pumping and maintenance. If you’re experiencing these signs, contact Speedy Septic. One of our septic system technicians will head to your property immediately, inspect your system, and diagnose the exact cause.
