Signs of a Full Septic Tank

Knowing when it’s time to pump your septic tank is best left to a professional. The average home owner with a septic tank should have their tank pumped once every 3 years. There are however, some key indicators that will let you know when it’s time to call Tillett.

These signs might mean your septic tank is full:

  • Standing water in the yard
  • Strong odor of sewage in the yard
  • A backed-up toilet
  • A drain that can’t be unclogged

Some newer systems have indicator lights or warning alarms that tell you when it’s time to call a licensed professional for pumping. When that happens, be sure to call Tillett Inc.
