Expert septic tank service in Cook County, IL from All Rooter Hydro Jetting Experts, including pumping, inspection, and preventative maintenance

Most Harvey septic tanks need pumping every 3-5 years, but your specific situation might be different. If you have a large family, use a garbage disposal, or have an older system, you might need annual pumping.

Harvey’s clay soil doesn’t absorb effluent as quickly as sandy soil, which can cause tanks to fill up faster than in other areas. We can evaluate your household’s usage and recommend the right pumping schedule for your property.

Regular pumping costs a few hundred dollars. Replacing a failed septic system costs thousands. The math is pretty simple, and so is the decision.

The most common cause is a full septic tank that hasn’t been pumped recently. When there’s nowhere for new waste to go, it backs up into your home through the lowest drains, usually in your basement.

Clogged distribution lines in your drain field also cause backups. Harvey’s clay soil can shift and crush pipes, or tree roots can invade and block the flow. Both problems require professional repair to fix properly.

Sometimes the backup is caused by putting the wrong things down your drains. Grease, feminine hygiene products, and excessive toilet paper can clog your system even if everything else is working correctly.

Yes, we specialize in septic repairs for Harvey’s challenging clay soil conditions. Clay soil creates drainage problems that require different solutions than sandy or loamy soil.

We use techniques specifically designed for clay soil, including modified drain field layouts, soil amendments to improve percolation, and distribution systems that work with your soil’s natural characteristics instead of fighting against them.

Many Harvey septic problems that seem impossible to fix actually just need the right approach for local soil conditions. We’ve been solving clay soil septic issues long enough to know what works.
