Services
Septic Tank Pumping
Our septic tank pumping service thoroughly cleans tanks and grease traps using a 'Crust Buster' gas-powered mixer to break down solids. After mixing, we extract all contents and inspect tanks with mirrors to ensure complete debris removal. This process prevents clogs, maintains system efficiency, and complies with Connecticut health standards.
Real Estate Inspections
We conduct comprehensive inspections for property buyers and sellers, using pipe cameras to examine tank condition, baffles, and distribution boxes. Our two-person teams perform flow tests, document findings in state-compliant reports, and explain system status to clients. This service prevents surprises during property transactions and identifies necessary repairs.
Pipe Camera Locating
Using high-resolution pipe cameras, we locate crushed or blocked pipes, determine their depth and direction, and assess damage severity. This non-invasive method pinpoints issues like root intrusion or pipe collapse, enabling targeted repairs and reducing excavation costs for homeowners and contractors.
Emergency Repairs
Our 24/7 emergency repair service addresses critical septic failures, including backups, overflows, and failed systems. We prioritize rapid response, on-site diagnostics, and immediate mitigation to restore functionality. Clients praise our quick resolution of urgent issues, minimizing property damage and health risks.
Septic Tank Locating
When septic tanks are unknown, we employ flushable frequency-emitting pills and rigid locators to precisely identify tank locations and depths. This service avoids unnecessary digging, saves time, and ensures accurate access for inspections or pumping, especially for older or abandoned systems.
