Lyons homeowners face unique challenges with septic systems. Many properties here have septic catch basins that discharge to the city sewer – a setup that requires specific expertise most companies don’t have. We’ve worked on these systems for years and know exactly how to service them properly.
We also provide ongoing maintenance programs to prevent costly emergencies. Regular pumping and inspections catch problems before they become expensive disasters that threaten your home and family’s health.
Most septic tanks in Lyons should be pumped every 1-3 years, depending on household size and usage. A family of four typically needs pumping every 2-3 years, while smaller households might go longer.
However, you can’t tell just by looking when your tank needs pumping. The waste level builds up gradually, and by the time you notice problems like slow drains or odors, you’re often dealing with an emergency situation.
We recommend annual inspections to determine when pumping is actually needed. This prevents the guesswork and catches potential problems before they become expensive repairs or health hazards.
Watch for slow-draining sinks and toilets, gurgling sounds from drains, foul odors around your property, wet spots in the yard near the drain field, or sewage backing up into your home. These are all signs your system needs immediate attention.
Water pooling in your yard, especially near the septic area, often indicates drain field problems. Contaminated well water or unusually green grass over the septic area can also signal system failure.
Don’t wait if you notice any of these signs. Septic problems get worse quickly and can create serious health hazards for your family while causing expensive property damage.
Yes, we specialize in the septic catch basin systems common in Lyons that discharge to the main city sewer. Most plumbing companies have never worked on these systems, but we’ve been servicing them for years.
These systems require specific knowledge about how they connect to city infrastructure and different maintenance approaches than traditional septic systems. We understand the local regulations and proper procedures for these unique setups.
Whether you have a standard septic system or one of Lyons’ catch basin configurations, we have the experience and equipment to service it properly without guessing or learning on your property.

We use professional equipment to measure waste levels, check for leaks, and ensure proper system operation. If we find any issues during maintenance, we’ll explain what needs attention and provide upfront pricing for any recommended repairs.
Regular maintenance prevents most septic emergencies and extends your system’s life significantly. It’s much less expensive than dealing with system failures, property damage, or health department violations.
Septic repair costs vary depending on the specific problem and your system type. Simple issues like pump repairs might cost a few hundred dollars, while drain field replacement can run several thousand.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying. No surprise charges or hidden fees – just honest pricing based on the actual work needed for your specific situation.
The most cost-effective approach is regular maintenance to prevent major problems. Emergency repairs are always more expensive than planned maintenance, and system replacement costs far more than keeping your current system properly maintained.
