While you may think you have a clogged pipe in the bathroom, it may be a clog in your septic system. Call a pro first before you try to unclog the pipe with a plunger or chemicals! When you have a septic tank clog or any septic system issue, you should always leave it to the professionals. A septic backup can quickly become an emergency, and you never should attempt to handle it yourself. Here’s why it’s important to call a pro when your septic tank is clogged.

A Clogged Septic Tank is a Hazard

When you have a clog in your septic tank, it’s only a matter of time before it becomes overfilled. When your septic tank is overfilled, the waste will have nowhere else to go but back where it came from – your toilets and drains. A septic backup is not only smelly and gross; it can actually be dangerous to your health. When you have a septic backup inside your home, not only will you need to call a pro to fix your tank, you’ll have to call professionals to clean the septic waste from your home. Call your septic company at the first sign of an issue to avoid a septic nightmare like a backup. Septic tank clogs need to be addressed immediately.

You Won’t Be Able to Tell Where the Clog is Coming From

Septic tanks are underground, and the inner workings aren’t visible. A professional septic company has all the necessary tools and equipment to inspect your septic tank to find the problem accurately. Once they’ve found the problem, they’ll be able to fix it properly.
