Cape Cod Home Insurance Since septic tanks are out of sight and out of mind, it is easy for this most important system of the home to be neglected and even forgotten.
Septic pumping removes the build-up of solids known as scum and sludge so that your entire system can continue to work properly. Avoid system back-up and a failed system with regular septic pumping. With regular pumping your septic system could last up to 30 years; without maintenance of your system it could fail within 5 – 10 years. The MassDEP recommends that systems be pumped at least once every 3 years for homes not having a garbage disposal.
Included in the Pump Fee

Warning Signs of Septic System Failure

Tips to Keep Your Septic System in Tip Top Shape
- Conserve water to reduce the load on your septic system.
- Divert rain water, from gutters and foundation drainage, away from the septic system.
- Never flush cat litter, disposable diapers, sanitary napkins, tampons, paper towels, facial tissues, coffee grounds, cigarette butts, or similar items down the toilet.

- Do not pour grease or hazardous chemicals down your drains.
- Keep trees away from your septic systems to avoid root infestation.
- Have your septic pumped regularly. Not sure how often?
