Septic Pumping in Athens, GA

 

Family owned in Jackson County. Emergencies answered 24/7.

 

 

 

 

Lots of homes around Athens use a septic system, especially outside the city center. From rentals near the University of Georgia to family homes out past the Loop, Septic Plus pumps septic tanks for Athens homes. We are just up Highway 441 in Commerce.

 

Gene French, our co-owner, has over 50 years of septic experience. When you call, you talk to a local family business, not a call center.

 

Rental Homes and Septic

 

Athens has a lot of rental homes. More people in a home means the tank fills up faster. If you own or manage a rental on septic, pumping on a regular schedule can help you avoid backups and angry calls from tenants.

 

How Often Should You Pump?

 

Most homes need their tank pumped every 3 to 5 years. Homes with more people, or homes that use a garbage disposal, may need it sooner.

 

What Happens When We Pump

 

  • We find your tank and open the lid.

  • We pump out the liquid and the solids.

  • We check the tank and baffles while it is open.

  • We tell you what we saw in plain words.

 

Signs Your Tank Is Full

 

  • Slow drains in more than one sink or tub

  • Gurgling sounds in the pipes

  • Sewage smell inside or outside

  • Water backing up into toilets or tubs

 

Septic Pumping FAQ

 

Do tenants need to be home when you pump? Not always. We just need to be able to reach the tank. We will work it out with you when you book.

 

Can septic additives replace pumping? No. The solids still have to be taken out of the tank.

 

Do you offer financing? Financing may be available for larger jobs. See our financing page.
