Whether you’re dealing with an old system that needs careful handling or a newer installation with specific requirements, we have the experience to handle it right.
Watch for sewage backing up into your house—that’s an immediate emergency requiring professional help. Slow draining throughout your home, gurgling sounds from drains, and strong sewage odors outside also signal serious problems.
Standing water or soggy ground over your drain field means the system isn’t processing waste properly. You might also notice toilets that won’t flush properly or sinks that drain extremely slowly even after you’ve tried basic fixes.
Don’t wait if you’re seeing multiple symptoms. Septic emergencies get worse quickly and can create health hazards or expensive property damage.
Septic pumping removes accumulated solids from your tank—it’s routine maintenance that should happen every 3-5 years. Think of it like changing your car’s oil. Pumping doesn’t fix broken pipes, damaged drain fields, or system failures.
Septic repair fixes actual problems with your system. This includes clearing blocked pipes, replacing damaged septic lines, repairing distribution boxes, or restoring failing drain fields. Repairs address why your system isn’t working properly.
If your system is backing up or failing, pumping alone usually won’t solve the problem. You need diagnostic work to identify what’s broken and proper repairs to fix it permanently.
Many septic problems can be fixed with minimal or no excavation. Our hydro jetting equipment clears most blockages in septic lines without digging. We can also repair some pipe sections using trenchless methods that only require small access points.
However, some repairs do require excavation. Replacing damaged distribution boxes, fixing broken septic lines, or restoring drain fields often means digging. We always explore less invasive options first and explain exactly what’s necessary for your specific situation.
When excavation is needed, we work efficiently to minimize disruption to your landscaping and restore everything properly when we’re finished.
Simple repairs like clearing blocked lines usually take 2-4 hours. More complex work like replacing septic pipes or repairing distribution boxes typically requires a full day. Drain field restoration can take 1-3 days depending on the extent of damage and soil conditions.
Emergency repairs get priority scheduling—we’ll have someone out the same day for urgent situations like sewage backups. For non-emergency work, we typically schedule within 24-48 hours and complete most jobs within a week of the initial assessment.
Weather can affect timeline for excavation work, especially during Illinois winters or wet spring conditions. We’ll give you realistic timeframes based on your specific repair needs and current conditions.
Streamwood’s clay soil can cause drain field problems when it becomes saturated or compacted. Heavy rains and snow melt can overwhelm systems, especially older ones that weren’t designed for current water usage patterns.
Tree roots are another major issue—they seek out septic lines and can cause serious blockages or pipe damage. Flushing inappropriate items like wipes, feminine products, or excessive household chemicals also damages septic systems over time.
Age is a factor too. Many Streamwood homes have septic systems installed decades ago that are simply wearing out. Components like distribution boxes crack, pipes deteriorate, and drain fields lose their ability to process waste effectively.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency septic services throughout the year, including weekends and holidays. Septic emergencies don’t wait for convenient times—they happen when they happen, and sewage backups create health hazards that need immediate attention.
We answer our phones around the clock and dispatch technicians for true emergencies like sewage backups, complete system failures, or situations creating unsanitary conditions. Emergency service does carry additional charges, but we’re upfront about pricing before any work begins.
For urgent but non-emergency situations, we typically schedule service within 24 hours. We’ll help you determine if your situation requires immediate emergency response or can wait for regular business hours.
