One: Troubleshooting

The first step in our repairs process is always performing a phone consultation with our customers to see if we can troubleshoot the problem over the phone. During the phone call, we will gather as much information as possible so that we can get a sense for the problem and any potential solutions.

Two: Pump Out

In some cases, a pumper truck may be required to remove excess effluent or sewage before we can start diagnosing the problem further. If a pumper truck is required and you do not have a pumper company already in mind, our dedicated team can help take care of the arrangements for you.

Three: Diagnostics

Once we have access to all the components of your septic system, we will start by performing a number of detailed diagnostics procedures for the pumps, panels, floats, transducer, and other components that might be contributing to the septic system malfunction. We are equipped with some of the highest quality tools and equipment in the industry to provide an accurate diagnosis of the issue. That last thing we ever want to do is fix the wrong problem.
