What can you expect and how do we clean out a septic tank system?

Cleaning out your septic tank system is a messy but necessary job.  It is important not to make the mistake of substituting regular septic inspection and cleaning with additive products.  These products can cause a disruption in the delicate ecosystem inside your septic tank.  Make the call to the septic tank experts at Cesspool Service Long Island.

 We will come out and check the levels of sludge and scum and use quality pumping and jetting equipment to clean out your septic system properly.  By using the best pumping and hydro jetting equipment we are able to minimize the typical odor that normally accompanies the septic system cleaning process

Just because your septic tank and cesspool system is not visible, your system is designed  with many drains that flow from your home or place of business into one main septic drain that pools into what is called  a septic tank. 

The magic happens when all the sources of waste water begin to separate inside of your septic tank.  Fats and oils rise to the top while the heavy waste particles stay at the bottom.  This is how septic sludge (heavy waste at the bottom of your septic tank) and septic scum (oily fatty waste floating at the top of your septic system) and the clear middle section of waste water is called effluent. 

During this separation process, a delicate microbial ecosystem of little organisms is breaking down the waste.

We are here to help you understand how your septic tank works and how often your system requires maintenance.  This will result in a properly flowing septic system that will give your family or business means to effectively remove and contain waste. 

If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact us.
