Most tank problems start small. Catch them early and you save money, mess, and stress.
Sewage smell outside
A pungent smell around the yard or near drains usually means the tank is full or venting incorrectly.
Gurgling toilets or sinks
Air bubbling through the bowl when you flush is one of the earliest signs the system is struggling.
Slow flushing or draining
If water sits in the bowl or sinks empty slowly across the house, the tank may be at capacity.
Pipes backing up
Waste coming back up the lowest fixture in your home is a clear sign you need a clean now.
Wet patches in the yard
Soggy ground or liquid surfacing near the tank means it's overflowing and needs urgent attention.
It's been 3 to 5 years
Even without symptoms, most tanks need a full cleanout every 3 to 5 years to stay healthy.
