Roto-Rooter High Desert tells you what you need to know about servicing your septic tank in Hesperia:

What If Waste Backs Up From My Septic Tank?

Your septic tank is designed to let sludge collect while allowing wastewater to drain into the drain field. If the accumulation of sludge gets too high or if the baffles that connect the sections of your septic tank become clogged, wastewater and septic tank sludge can build up.

The best solution in most cases is to pump the sludge out of the septic tank. You will have to pump your septic tank, including both the solid and liquid compartments every 3-5 years as part of regular Hesperia septic tank service. The baffle wall acts as a divider to separate the solids and liquids so that way no solids can enter the drainfield which can cause back ups as well as a failed drainfield.

What If My Septic Tank Does Not Drain Properly?

If the soil around your septic tank becomes waterlogged or wastewater backs up in your septic tank, you might have a problem with your drain fields or your drain field pipe. The drain field pipe is a perforated pipe that allows wastewater to drain back into the soil after it has passed through the baffles and deposited any grease and sludge.

An experienced septic tank technician can dig up the drain pipes, remove any clogs and fix or replace damaged sections of pipe.

What If My Septic Tank Produces Unpleasant Smells?

Home waste produces gases that can, unfortunately, lead to unpleasant odors. Normally, the design of the septic system contains odors and protects your home from any potentially toxic fumes, such as hydrogen sulfide and methane. However, cracked pipes, leaky pipes, and backups can cause odors to make their way into your home.

A professional septic tank repair technician can inspect the pipes and vents for clogs until they uncover the cause of the odors.

Cleaning the vents, pumping the tank, and patching any leaky pipes can fix the problem of septic tank smells.
