Our long-term experience is the foundation of our septic tank installation and repair services here at Herrington’s LLC.
Whether you have just purchased a new mobile home and are in need of septic tank installation or routine repair and maintenance call Herrington’s LLC to get the job done correctly.
If properly cleaned and maintained, a septic tank will last at least 20 years. There are a few warning signs that will indicate your sewage system is in need of repair.
One sure-fire sign is if sewage is backed up into your house. This could potentially be resolved by a plumber, but it’s always good to have a septic tank company on hand as well. Another sign that you need septic tank repair would be if there are terrible odors coming from your backyard.
You may need a plumber to repair a broken pipe, or your entire drain field may need to be replaced. The best thing you can do is not guess or self-diagnose exactly what the problem may be.
We strongly recommend calling a plumber and/or calling Herrington’s to professionally diagnose any potential problems with your septic system.
Routine septic tank maintenance is extremely important in keeping your home’s septic tank lifespan on track. The average home septic system should be inspected at least every three years by a septic service professional.
How your septic system needs to be pumped has to do with usage and household size, however our recommendation is to have your septic tank pumped every three to five years.
Your septic tank size also plays a large role in the frequency of how often it should be pumped. A Herrington’s LLC professional will give pumping and maintenance recommendations upon installation.
There is a huge benefit to the additional services that Herrington’s offers beyond sales and installation. We will be able to recommend and tailor the specific septic tank to your home and household needs.
The leach field, also known as a septic drain field, is an important component in your septic system. Most septic system failures are caused by failed drain field systems.
The leach field is the underground area where septic pipes filter the wastewater from the tank into the soil. The soil breaks the wastewater down into natural bacteria.
The leach field size is determined by usage, size of household, size of the tank and a couple other factors. This is where a septic professional’s expertise comes in to play.
As we have discussed previously, the location of your septic tank is quite important because if you ever decide to relocate, you have to be mindful not to drive directly over the septic system. If a truck were to try to drive over your septic tank, it would collapse, causing severe issues.
Herrington’s is the company to trust and discuss repairing or replacing your entire septic system. If there is a repair we think would lengthen the lifespan of your septic system, we would be happy to complete the job.
If your septic system needs to be replaced entirely, we will be able to break down exactly why your septic system is beyond repair.
Here are a few septic system related questions that we might not have answered for you. Feel free to call or contact us with any other septic system related questions that you might have!
