The cost of neglect

Regular maintenance costs a fraction of a failure.

Most septic system failures are preventable. The root cause is almost always the same: missed pump-outs, undetected pump wear, and ignored warning signs. A maintenance plan eliminates all three.

Our maintenance programs

Choose the plan that fits your property.

Both plans include scheduled reminders, priority booking, and our team's full commitment to keeping your system running at its best.

Standard

Annual Maintenance Plan

Our core maintenance program — ideal for most residential properties. We visit once a year to inspect, clean, and test your system, and pump the tank on schedule.

Premium

Full Care Maintenance Plan

Our comprehensive plan for properties with advanced treatment systems, high water use, commercial operations, or owners who want complete peace of mind.

Full scope of repairs

Everything we diagnose, repair, and replace.

Our licensed technicians carry common pump models and electrical components on the truck — many repairs are completed in a single visit.

Tank inspection & pump-out

We inspect the tank condition and measure sludge depth. If pumping is due (or overdue), we pump it on the same visit with our 3,000-gallon vacuum truck.

Effluent filter cleaning

A clogged filter restricts flow and causes the alarm to trigger. We remove, inspect, and clean the filter on every maintenance visit — a simple task that prevents costly downstream damage.

Pump performance testing

We run the effluent pump through a full cycle and measure run time, check for unusual noise, and confirm the pump is moving the correct volume of effluent.

Float switch testing

We manually test all floats — on/off, and high-level alarm — to confirm they're positioned correctly, moving freely, and triggering at the right levels.

High-water alarm test

We verify the alarm activates correctly, the audible and visual signals work, and the panel is in good condition — so you know you'll be warned if something goes wrong between visits.

Service report & record keeping

After every visit, we provide a written report of findings and recommended actions. Over time, this builds a complete history of your system — invaluable for future maintenance and real estate.

Why a plan makes sense

Six reasons acreage owners choose a maintenance plan.

You'll never forget

We track your service schedule and reach out when your next visit is due. No reminders on your calendar required.

Extend your system's life

A well-maintained system lasts 25–30+ years. Regular care prevents the premature failures that lead to full replacement.

Catch problems early

Worn floats, aging pumps, and clogged filters are cheap to fix when caught early — and expensive when they cause a failure.

Priority emergency service

Maintenance plan customers get priority dispatch for emergency calls — because you're already part of our system.

Complete service history

Your system's full maintenance record makes future inspections, real estate transactions, and insurance claims simpler.

Peace of mind

Know your system is being looked after by qualified professionals — not guessing when it was last serviced or hoping nothing fails.
