“JT´s crew corrected a bent pipe caused by settlement. They took the time to explain the entire process. Dug up the yard, and left it perfect..all back the way it was. Additionally they took the time to explain preventive maintenance, such as changing out the filter, and showed us how to do it (not something we see ourselves doing). Told us it would be at least 10 years before we would need to have the septic pumped. Courteous, knowledgeable and honest. We are clients for life!”

Have questions? You’re not alone.
-
Do you use well water? Does the waterline coming into your home not have a meter? Do you show a "$0.00 Sewer Amount Charged" on your water bill or property tax bill? Do your neighbors have a septic system? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then you may have a septic system. We are happy to come out and locate your system for you with our expert staff and up-to-date sewer cameras.
-
Definitely give JT's Septic a call right away! We can help you diagnose the problem and determine if it’s plumbing related or if it’s a problem directly related to your septic system. If you experience any of the following, contact us to check your system: wastewater backing up into more than one household fixture, bright green, spongy grass on the drainfield (even during dry weather), pooling water or muddy soil around your septic system or in your basement, a strong odor around the septic tank and/or drainfield.
-
Sewer cleanouts are usually between the house and the septic tank and are used to snake the inlet line towards the tank. If the PVC markers have a "JT's Septic" label, they mark the access lids to your septic tank (buried directly under the labels). If the pipes are further out and appear randomly placed in comparison to the house or tank, they may be inspection ports to monitor the liquid level in the disposal area.
-
Most experts agree that the normal use of household cleaning products will not harm the system by stopping the action of bacteria in the tank. Large amounts of certain chemicals, however, may interfere with the breakdown of wastes in the tank or could clog the soil treatment area. Keep in mind that the products you use may eventually find their way into local groundwater systems. *
-
Most tanks need to be pumped every 3-5 years, depending on the size of the tank, daily flow of wastewater into the tank, & the use of a garbage disposal.* Currently in the state of Arizona, there are no laws requiring maintenance and inspection (except for the sale of a home) however the EPA and local health departments highly recommend routine maintenance to help prevent groundwater contamination due to the nitrogen, phosphorus and disease-causing bacteria found in wastewater.
-
There is a difference between full and overfull! An empty septic tank will fill up as quick as you use the amount of gallons it holds. The tank is designed to hold a liquid level to the bottom of the outlet pipe (that exits into the disposal area). When you look down in your tank, it should look full. It takes a professional to measure the scum and sludge levels to determine if your tank is ready to be pumped out.
-
While many homeowners may go many years past the recommended maintenance period without a problem, damage is slowly being done. The purpose of the tank is to hold the solids that natural bacteria cannot break down. Those solids accumulate over time to a point where the tank no longer has room to contain it all, therefor the solids make their way to the drain field where they plug up the pores in the ground causing poor drainage and eventually septic system and drain field failure.
-
All septic systems have a finite life, meaning they will eventually “fail.” How long a system will last depends on sizing, installation, soil composition, the water table, nearby trees and roots, amount of use and abuse and most importantly, proper routine maintenance and pumping. Pump out your system often to help ensure your system lasts as long as possible.
-
Yes! We work with a third-party company to offer financing for repairs and system installation. We do not currently offer financing for pump outs. Ask our office for more information.
