How Wally Blanton’s Septic Cleaning Process Works
Our septic system cleaning services involve more than just pumping your tanks out. We cover every detail, component, and part of your system to make sure nothing is missed.
System Assessment and Client Consultation
We always start with a conversation to understand your system’s recent condition. If you’ve noticed anything unusual, let us know—that insight helps us know where to look first. Then, we’ll check everything from the tank to the drainage area to get a sense of its overall health.
Full-System Cleaning with Powerful Suction Technology
Once we know what we’re dealing with, we go straight to the cleaning process. Our equipment isn’t just any vacuum. We’ve invested in a powerful suction system that removes layers of sludge, hardened waste, and scum that sit at the bottom and sides of the tank. A regular pump-out won’t touch this buildup, but our tools reach deep to give your system a real clean.
Inspection and System Check-Up
We inspect the baffles, pipes, and tank walls, checking for wear, cracks, or any early warning signs that might need attention. We’ll take a good look inside the tank to catch anything that could cause issues later on.
Final Testing and Client Review
Before we wrap up, we test the system to ensure it works properly after the cleaning. Then, we’ll walk you through our findings, such as areas we think might need extra attention in the future and some easy tips to keep things running well until your next cleaning.
Complete Care Solutions for Your Septic Tank & System
Septic tanks don’t always get the attention they need, but a good septic tank cleaning can go a long way, especially if done by professionals from Wally Blanton Plumbing & Sewer. Here’s what you get with our full-service cleaning.
Tank Interior and Sludge Layer Removal
One of the main reasons behind septic issues is the sludge layer that builds up at the bottom of the tank. We use powerful suction tools to reach deep into the tank and remove this layer to clear out waste that can cause clogs.
Baffles and Filters for Controlled Flow
Inside the tank, baffles and filters help direct the flow of wastewater so that solids and liquids go where they should. These parts can clog or wear down due to repeated use. During our septic system cleaning, we make sure baffles and filters are in good shape and clear of any blockages.
Inlet and Outlet Lines for Clear Passage
Inlet and outlet lines control how wastewater enters and exits the tank. These lines can clog with waste and restrict the flow of wastewater. Our experienced plumbers will check and clean these lines to keep wastewater flowing easily.
Scum Layer Skimming
A thick scum layer filled with oils, fats, and other debris usually floats on top of the wastewater in your tank. We skim off this layer to reduce the chances of buildup and keep everything balanced for better filtration.
Inspection and Cleaning of Tank Lids and Access Points
Lids and access points can gather rust, dirt, and debris. We inspect and clean these areas as well to keep everything secure and make it easier for you to reach the tank.
