    Mulino Septic Tank Pumping Service

    When pumping is the right next step, Byers Septic Tank Service locates the access lid, opens the tank, and pumps out the waste. The lid may be plastic, fiberglass, or concrete, and timing can vary with tank size. On Mulino acreage, the useful detail is often access: where the lid sits, which drive to use, and whether a gate, shop yard, or pasture route needs to stay clear before the truck arrives.

    After pumping, we get everything back to looking how it was before we arrived and dispose of the waste at the county wastewater treatment center. This whole process usually takes less than an hour on-site, unless there are complicating factors.

    Emergency Septic Tank Service for Homes and Businesses

    If drains back up, odors spread, or a tank alarm changes your plans, do not wait for the problem to sort itself out. Byers offers emergency septic service for residential and commercial customers, with same-day service in most cases.

    • Visual Inspection
    • In the case of Mulino septic systems with easy-to-access tanks, owners can go check the level of sewage in the tank themselves. Of course, this is not very helpful if you don’t know what it looks like for your septic tank to be “full.”
    • Backed-Up or Gurgling Drains
    • This is a commonly occurring sign of a backed up septic system. When plunging doesn’t seem to help, it is entirely possible that the backup in your toilet is caused not by the toilet itself but by the septic tank needing service.
    • Alarms
    • Many systems are equipped with alarms, whose function is to indicate a mechanical failure in the tank. If you hear an alarm on your septic tank going off, it may mean that you have had a pump system failure. Give us a call quickly to get your system examined.

    Frequently Asked Questions about Byers Mulino Septic Tank Services

    How long does it take to install a new septic tank?
    It takes about a week from groundbreaking to initial operation, and more if you include the process of developing plans and acquiring permits.
    What permits are required to install a new septic tank?
    The county the job site is located in will regulate septic systems. An initial soil feasibility test must be conducted before a system can be designed and all other permits obtained. When we install a septic system, we take care of all the testing and permits so you don’t have to deal with anything.
    What size septic tank will I need?
    This depends primarily on the number of bedrooms in your household. The more people in the house, the larger the tank and drainfield.
    How much does a septic system installation cost?
    Costs depend on a variety of factors such as size of the system, soil conditions, and material of the tank, so unfortunately, we cannot give a number here. Give us a call for a consultation about your unique situation.
    What is a septic system and how does it work?
    A septic system stores solid waste for later removal and transport to a waste treatment plant, and allows liquid waste to be released safely into the ground. A conventional septic system has two main parts: septic tank and drainfield. The septic tank filters out solid waste and allows it to break down safely until it can be pumped out, while passing on liquid waste to the drainfield, which distributes it into the soil to be filtered and reused.
    Are there alternatives to septic systems?
    There are a variety of alternatives on the market today. Our preferred system is the Orenco Advantex Wastewater Treatment System. Click here to learn more.
    Where do you take the waste you pump from a septic tank?
    Everything we pump goes to the county sewage treatment plant, same as it would if your house or commercial property were connected directly to the public sewer. Currently, we are applying for a permit to recycle the material we pump by treating it and using it as agricultural fertilizer, which would be a pretty exciting development.
    How often should a septic tank be pumped?
    The range on this service can be 1-30 years, depending on the number of people making use of the septic system and the size of the septic tank. See the information above for more details, or get in touch.
    Do septic tank additives reduce the need for septic tank pumping?
    Not at all. They might somewhat speed the decay of solid waste, but that will not substitute for regular pumping.
    How long does it take to pump a septic tank from start to finish?
    Generally about an hour, but this depends on factors such as ease of access, volume of the tank, and how long it’s been since the tank has been pumped last.
