If You’ve never had your septic tank pumped before, you might not know what to expect. In this article, we’ll demystify this process so you don’t have to worry. According to the video “What to expect when you have your septic tank pumped,” the first thing you should expect during a local septic tank pumping is a consultation with the septic tank contractor you hired.
When the septic tank contractors come for a consultation, you can expect some standard procedures.
They’ll ask questions like what led you to have your septic pumped, how long it’s been since the last time it was maintained and other questions that relate to this topic. If they need you to move anything in your yard so they can access the septic tank better, they’ll also let you know that you have to do that at this time if they haven’t already done so during an initial consultation over the phone or in-person.
After the consultation, they’ll start the process by inspecting the septic tank. They will probably also shut off the water and advise you on what you can or can’t do until the process is done. Then, they’ll follow the steps to pump the tank according to the best practices in the industry. After that, you can pay for their services.
