You get comprehensive septic services from one trusted local company. No coordinating between multiple contractors. No wondering if the job was done right.
Sewage backing up into your home is the clearest emergency sign. You’ll also need immediate help if you see standing water over your drain field, smell strong sewage odors around your tank, or notice your septic alarm going off.
Slow drains throughout your house, gurgling sounds from toilets, and wet spots in your yard are warning signs that need attention before they become emergencies. Don’t wait—these problems get worse fast and cost more to fix.
If you’re unsure, call us. We’d rather check a system that’s working fine than clean up a basement full of sewage.
Pumping removes accumulated solids from your tank—it’s regular maintenance, not repair. Most tanks need pumping every 3-5 years depending on household size and usage.
Actual repairs fix broken components: cracked tanks, failed pumps, blocked distribution boxes, or damaged drain field lines. If your system backs up right after pumping, or if pumping doesn’t solve slow drains, you need repairs, not just maintenance.
We handle both services, but we’ll tell you honestly which one you need. Pumping a broken system won’t fix it, and repairing a system that just needs pumping wastes your money.
It depends on why your drain field is failing and how much damage has occurred. Root intrusion, minor settling, or isolated pipe damage can often be repaired without full replacement.
We use camera inspection to see exactly what’s happening underground. If the soil is still permeable and the distribution system is intact, restoration might work. If the soil is completely saturated or the pipes are extensively damaged, replacement is more cost-effective long-term.
We’ll show you what we find and explain your options honestly. Sometimes spending a little more upfront saves thousands in repeated repairs.
Simple repairs like clearing blocked lines or replacing a pump usually take a few hours. More complex work like drain field restoration can take 1-3 days depending on soil conditions and permit requirements.
Emergency repairs get priority—we’ll have your system functional again as quickly as possible, even if final cleanup takes longer. For major work, we can often install temporary solutions to keep your system working while permits are processed.
Western Springs soil conditions and local regulations affect timing. Clay soil takes longer to excavate and compact properly. We factor in weather, permits, and inspections so you know what to expect from the start.
Minor repairs like pump replacement or line cleaning typically don’t require permits. Major work like drain field installation, tank replacement, or system expansion requires permits from DuPage County Health Department.
We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service. The permit process usually takes 1-2 weeks, but we can often start emergency repairs immediately under temporary permits when health hazards exist.
Illinois regulations are specific about system design, soil testing, and setback requirements. We know these rules and ensure your repairs meet all current codes so you don’t have problems when you sell your property.
Simple repairs like clearing blocked lines start around $300-500. Pump replacement runs $800-1,500. Major work like drain field restoration can range from $3,000-8,000 depending on size and soil conditions.
We provide upfront pricing before starting work—no surprises when the job is done. Emergency calls include a service fee, but that gets applied to repair costs if you hire us for the work.
The cost of not fixing septic problems is always higher. Sewage damage to your basement, health department violations, or complete system failure costs much more than addressing problems early. We’ll show you exactly what needs to be done and what it costs before we start.
