You know there is something wrong. You have seen some of the red flags that septic experts warn you about — things like gurgling pipes, foul odors emanating from drains or your yard, and even some flooding around the drain field. Whether you are experiencing one or all of these things, the next step is to call in experts like ours at American Waste Septic to ensure that you get the right septic diagnosis for your septic system.
There are several things that you can do to ensure that you get the right septic diagnosis, and one of the most important is choosing the right septic expert. There are so many septic pumping companies out there that crop up and then go out of business a few years later. Instead of putting your trust in someone inexperienced, go with a septic company that has been around the block a few (hundred) times!
The next thing to do to get the right septic diagnosis is to make sure that you are honest and upfront with your septic technician. If you accidentally used toilet cleaner that was essentially bleach, tell them! If your toddler thought it would be a fun experiment to flush their diaper down the toilet, let them know. Withholding information will only make your septic diagnosis harder to nail down, and your septic expert isn’t there to judge you!
Finally, keep track of the timeline of when things have occurred. If you noticed problems last week, think back to what you did last week that might be affecting your system now. If you need a septic diagnosis quickly, call in our experts at American Waste Septic today.
