SEPTIC SERVICES
Residential Septic Repair, Maintenance, Installation and Pumping in Anderson, SC
Repairs Don't Have to Be Messy
A septic system removes wastewater from your home, treating it before sending it back to mother nature. Septic systems are an ideal choice when well-maintained, but things can go wrong. Solid materials can cause backups, leaks send waste into your yard, and roots damage the pipes. Many problems can be repaired, but accessing your septic system requires some digging. The Fortner Plumbing experts have fixed all types of septic systems, especially in emergencies. We’ll diagnose the problem and perform repairs promptly without leaving a mess behind.
Installation Should Not Be Complex
Septic systems can be more expensive and labor-intensive to install than connecting to the public sewer system. Steps include digging the trench between your home and the tank, laying pipe, city permits, and regulatory requirements. Fortner Plumbing will walk you through the process, giving you an honest timeline and providing impeccable service and communication. We understand installing a septic system is a significant investment, with installation costs as high as $6,000 or more. That’s why our experts make sure you understand each step before moving forward.
Pumping Helps Avoid Problems
Septic systems can be very complex. As the wastewater hits the tank, it’s diluted with chemicals and separated into solids called sludge (on the bottom) and scum (floating on top). Pumping helps remove the sludge or scum that forms over time. Fortner Plumbing recommends pumping your system every 3-4 years and before family reunions or other large-scale gatherings to help clear the lines. Our team is skilled in removing all traces of scum and sludge and performing a complete inspection to check for issues and wear and tear.
