I recently had Jeremy and Paul from Speedy Septic come out for a septic evaluation, and I can honestly say they are two of the hardest-working men I have ever met. From the moment they arrived, they were professional, pleasant, kind, and respectful.
They took the time to do a thorough job, explaining everything in clear detail so I could fully understand my septic system. Their knowledge and attention to detail were outstanding—they went above and beyond with all the due diligence to make sure I was completely informed.
On top of their excellent service, their pricing was extremely fair and transparent. I was genuinely impressed with how well they handled everything.
If you need septic services, I highly recommend Speedy Septic and these two gentlemen. They deserve every bit of a 5-star rating—thank you, Jeremy and Paul! I’m truly thankful for your hard work and outstanding service.
10/10 Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Generally, 40 years or more if properly maintained. The type of septic system you have will also determine how long it will last for.
Is it Cheaper to Repair Your Septic System than it is to Pump It?
No, while pumping a septic system can be costly every 3 to 5 years, it’s significantly cheaper than it would be to repair your septic system. To repair a septic system it often costs thousands of dollars, which you can save by having your septic system pumped once every 3 to 5 years.
Are Septic Systems Bad for the Environment?
No, unless they’re not properly taken care of. If untreated sewage is floating around on your property it can contaminate your property and groundwater. Sewage issues can also cause potential health hazards.
Does a Septic System Require Electricity?
No, most septic tanks don’t require electricity to function, but this all depends on the type of septic system you have. If your septic system uses a pump, you’ll want to conserve water during a power outage.
Can You Use a Garbage Disposal with a Septic Tank?
Yes, just be vigilant about what you’re putting down your garbage disposal, not putting anything other than food waste down it.
Is it OK to Build on Top Of Your Septic System as Long as it’s Not a Permanent Structure?
No, your septic system should be easily accessible and your drainfield needs oxygen to help it naturally treat the wastewater it receives from the septic tank. If you build on top of the drainfield, it won’t properly get the oxygen it needs and thus lead to failure. It’s best to avoid building or driving on top of septic systems.
How Often Should My Septic Tank be Pumped?
Generally, your septic tank should be pumped every 3 to 5 years, but this depends on the size and type of septic system you have.
Where Should a Septic Tank be Placed?
Septic tanks should be placed on level ground where there is at least 8 feet or more of soil.
What Do I Need to Know About Buying a House with a Septic Tank?
It’s a good idea to have it inspected so you’ll know exactly what you’re dealing with. An inspection will determine the age of your septic system, it will help uncover any issues, and it will determine if you need it pumped.
How Long Does it Take to Install a Septic System?
It typically takes about 3 to 5 days to install a septic system but this depends on your location, the weather, the wastewater treatment system, and local regulations.
What are the Signs My Septic Tank is Full?
The best way to know when to pump a septic tank is to check the levels of the solids. To determine if pumping is necessary, we perform a sludge test. A sludge test should only be performed by a qualified septic technician to measure if the solid level is high enough for pumping.
Does Rid-X or Yeast Work on Septic Tanks?
Rid-X and yeast isn’t good for septic tanks because it can harm or kill off the “good bacteria” that helps break down and clarify the build-up in a septic tank. In fact, the EPA states that people should “beware of septic tank additives” and that “periodic pumping is the only true way to ensure that septic systems work properly and provide many years of service.”
Will I be Reported if I Have a Failing Septic System?
No, septic service companies don’t regulate septic systems. In Oregon, we are only required to report untreated sewage flowing above ground into a waterway. Our job is to help you, your family, your home, and your septic system to ensure they all work together in the best way possible. It’s in everyone’s best interest to help you fix your septic system before it gets to this extreme.
We at Speedy Septic hope if you have any questions about your septic system or are experiencing issues, you contact us. We’d be happy to help!
