A septic emergency doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we.

 

Whether it's a holiday weekend or 2 AM on a Tuesday, Septic Plus Inc provides priority dispatch for homeowners in Jefferson, Commerce, Athens, and Jackson County. We know that a sewage backup is more than just an inconvenience—it's a health hazard.
 

What Counts as a Septic Emergency? If you are experiencing any of these signs, stop using water immediately and call 770-472-7587:

​

• The "Red Light" Alarm:

  • Your septic pump alarm means high water levels in the pump chamber. Without immediate repair, sewage will back up into your home.

​

• Gurgling Drains:

  • If flushing the toilet causes the shower drain to gurgle, your main line is blocked or the tank is overfull.

​

• Surfacing Sewage:

  • Wet, smelly spots in the yard indicate a drain field failure or a tank overflow.

​

• Basement Backups:

  • The worst-case scenario. We arrive fast to stop the flow and protect your property.

​

Our Emergency Protocol:

​

1. Triage: When you call, we diagnose the severity over the phone to prioritize your dispatch.

2. Diagnostics: We don't guess. We use cameras and gauge checks to see if it's a simple clog, a pump failure, or a full tank.

3. Resolution: From emergency pump-outs to float switch replacements, we carry the parts to fix 90% of issues on the first visit.
