Why Upper College Heights homes need septic service
If your home in Upper College Heights isn't on public sewer, it uses a septic tank and drain field, and the tank needs pumping and a check-up every few years. Heavy rain can saturate the drain field, and a house full of guests adds water; either one can back up a system that's near its limit. 45% of homes here were built before 1980, and on an older septic system, age and condition decide whether a repair will do or the system needs replacing. About 28% of residents moved into their home in the past year, and buying a home is a common time to have the septic system inspected. The company listed here also offers septic repair.

Septic service questions Upper College Heights homeowners ask
How do I choose a septic service company near Upper College Heights?
- A written price before the truck comes out, based on your tank size, with any digging, mileage or disposal fees listed.
- Every compartment pumped, with the gallons pumped and where the waste went written on your receipt.
- Before you agree to a new drain field or tank, see the evidence and get a second opinion from a company not selling the fix.
- For a home sale, hire an inspector who doesn't also sell septic repairs.
- Be wary of a company that sells bacteria or enzyme additives as a stand-in for pumping.
- Walk away from bait pumping prices far below other quotes; the bill tends to grow once the tank is open.
- Ask for the company's Virginia septic license or certification number, and check it with Virginia's Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR) yourself instead of trusting the number on the truck.
