This Is an Emergency — Here's What to Do Right Now

If you're dealing with sewage backup, overflow, or a system that has stopped working, every hour matters. Sewage contains harmful bacteria and pathogens. Don't try to manage it yourself.

While You Wait for Us:

  1. Stop using all water — no showers, toilets, dishwasher, or laundry until we arrive
  2. Keep people away from the affected area — especially children and pets
  3. Don't add chemicals to the tank — septic additives won't fix an emergency and may complicate repairs
  4. Don't dig or open the tank yourself — septic tanks contain dangerous gases

Signs You Have a Septic Emergency:

  • Sewage backing up out of toilets, sinks, or floor drains
  • Sewage surfacing in the yard
  • Alarm buzzer or light on your septic control panel
  • Strong sewage odor inside the home
  • No drainage at all — toilets won't flush, sinks won't drain
  • Liquid pooling over the drainfield area

Common Emergency Causes We Fix:

Overfull Tank

Tank hasn't been pumped in years and has hit capacity. Emergency pump-out gets your system working again.

Failed Pump

Pump-assisted systems stop working when the pump fails. We carry common pump models for same-day replacement.

Clogged Inlet Line

Tree roots or debris blocking the line between your house and the tank. Waste has nowhere to go.

Drainfield Saturated

Heavy rain, system overload, or soil failure prevents drainage. We assess and recommend the fastest path to restoration.

We serve Greenville County, Simpsonville, Mauldin, Greer, Taylors, Easley, and all of Upstate SC. Call us now — the longer you wait, the worse the damage gets.
