Do any of these apply?
These situations need immediate attention.
If you're experiencing any of the following, don't wait — call us now. Delay can turn a manageable problem into serious property damage.
High-Water Alarm Sounding
Your septic alarm is going off — this means the tank is at or above its high-water level. The system needs immediate attention before sewage backs up into your home.
Sewage Backup in the House
Sewage backing up into drains, toilets, or basement fixtures is a serious health hazard. The tank is likely full or the pump has failed — you need a pump-out right away.
Effluent Pump Not Running
If your pump has stopped, sewage can't move out of the tank. This leads to overflow quickly. A pump failure needs same-day diagnosis and often a pump replacement.
Sewage on the Ground or Yard
Visible pooling of sewage or wastewater on your property is a regulatory and environmental emergency. Stop all water use immediately and call us.
Strong Sewage Odours
A full tank or system malfunction often produces strong sulphur or sewage odours inside or outside your home — a warning sign the system needs service now.
Slow Drains Across All Fixtures
When all drains in the house are slow simultaneously, the septic tank may be full or the outlet is blocked — not a plumbing problem, a septic problem.

Quick Service
Our professional services
Everything septic, under one roof.
Emergency Septic Tank Pump-Out
We dispatch our 3,000-gallon Kenworth vacuum truck to pump your tank immediately, relieving pressure on your system before backup or overflow occurs.
Effluent Pump Repair & Replacement
Our technicians diagnose pump failures on site. If the pump needs replacing, we carry common pump models and can often complete the installation same visit.
High-Water Alarm Response
We respond to high-level alarms — investigating the cause, silencing the alarm, and getting your system back within normal operating range.
Float Switch & Control Panel Issues
Faulty floats and control panels are a common cause of pump failures. We troubleshoot and replace failed electrical components to restore normal operation.
Sewage Backup & Overflow Response
When sewage is backing up into the home or onto the property, we pump out the system and assess the cause to prevent it from happening again.
Septic System Troubleshooting
Not sure what's wrong? We inspect the full system — tank, pump, alarm, floats, and distribution — to identify the problem and give you a clear diagnosis and options.
