Septic Tank Pumping & Cleaning

Routine pumping is the only way to prevent sludge buildup from destroying your leach field. If you wait until the toilet backs up, the damage is often already done.

Thorough Cleaning: We don’t just “pump and run.” We remove the sludge and clean the filter to keep your tank healthy.
Fair, Flat-Rate Pricing: You get a clear price upfront. No hidden “fuel surcharges” or surprise fees, whether you’re in Grafton, Oberlin, or Rochester.
System Check: Every cleaning includes a check of your liquid levels and baffles to catch potential issues early.

Septic System Installation & Replacement

Whether you are breaking ground on a new home anywhere in Lorain County or need to replace a failing system, you need an installation team you can trust. We manage the entire process, ensuring your new septic system is designed and installed correctly for years of trouble-free operation.

We are authorized installers for the modern systems mandated by the county, including NPDES and Spray Irrigation systems.

Expert Installation: We handle the excavation, plumbing, and setup of these advanced systems. We know exactly what the EPA and Lorain County Public Health inspectors are looking for.
Project Management: We guide you through the permitting and inspection process so you aren’t left guessing.

Septic Repairs & Troubleshooting

Don’t ignore a buzzing alarm or slow drains. Because many Lorain County systems rely on mechanics (motors, pumps, timers), parts do wear out. We stock the components to fix them fast.

Discharge Pump Replacement: The pump inside your tank pushes water to the outlet. When these fail, the high-water alarm goes off. We replace these regularly.
Aerator Motors & UV Lights: If you have a Norweco, Jet, or similar system, we carry the replacement motors and UV lamps needed to keep the water clear.
Electric Power Snaking: If the line between your house and the tank is clogged with roots or grease, we can clear it to restore flow immediately.

Lorain County O&M Compliance (The “Health Dept Letter”)

Received a letter from Lorain County Public Health about your “Operation and Maintenance” (O&M) permit?

Lorain County requires regular inspections for most modern systems to protect local waterways. Instead of worrying about the paperwork, let us handle it.

As a registered Service Provider, we make compliance easy:

The Inspection: We check your motors, timers, and UV lights to verify the system is treating wastewater correctly.
The Paperwork: We submit the required reports directly to the Health Department for you.
The Schedule: We track your due dates so you don’t get hit with a fine for missing a deadline.

New Homeowner Inspections

Many homeowners move into a property without knowing how their specific septic system works or how to maintain it. If you just bought a home in Amherst or LaGrange, or anywhere else in Lorain County, we offer a new homeowner inspection and walkthrough:

Complete System Inspection: We open the lids to check liquid levels, inspect baffles, and test mechanical components like pumps and aerators to ensure everything is functioning.
Maintenance Basics: We explain the essentials, like where your components are located, how to check the control panel, and what items to avoid flushing.
System Status Report: You get a clear, honest assessment of your tank’s health so you know if it needs pumping or repairs.

We provide septic tank pumping, cleaning, inspections, repairs, maintenance plans, new installations, and commercial septic services throughout Lorain County.

Can you help with septic emergencies in Lorain County?

We offer fast, flexible scheduling for urgent septic issues to keep your system functioning and prevent damage.

How often should I have my septic tank pumped in Lorain County?

Most homes need their septic tank pumped every 3 to 5 years, depending on family size and water usage. However, if you have a mechanical system (like an aeration unit), it may require more frequent inspections (O&M) to meet county code.

What is an O&M Inspection?

“O&M” stands for Operation and Maintenance. Lorain County Public Health requires these regular inspections for advanced septic systems (like NPDES or Spray systems) to ensure they aren’t polluting the environment. We are certified to perform these checks and file the paperwork for you.

Do you repair broken septic alarms?

Yes. A buzzing alarm usually means your discharge pump or aerator has failed, or your water level is too high. Call us immediately—ignoring the alarm can lead to a backup in your basement or yard.

Yes, we service both residential and commercial properties, including restaurants, apartment complexes, and other facilities.
