We’re a referral service, not a septic company. We connect you with local septic pros who do the work.
What to do right now
- Stop using water. No flushing, showers, dishwasher, or laundry.
- Keep kids and pets away from any sewage, inside or out.
- Don’t open the septic tank yourself. Gases in the tank are dangerous.
- Don’t pour in chemicals or drain cleaners. They won’t fix it and can make things worse.
- If sewage got inside, open windows and keep people out of that area.
If anyone is sick, hurt, or in danger, call 911.
What counts as a septic emergency
- Sewage coming up through a tub, shower, or floor drain
- Toilets that won’t flush at all
- Raw sewage on the ground or running toward a creek or neighbor’s property
- A septic pump alarm that won’t stop
Storms make all of this more likely. When the ground is soaked for days, a system that was barely keeping up can stop working fast.
Questions
Will someone come out tonight?
We send your info right away and flag it urgent. Whether a truck can come overnight depends on the company and conditions, and they’ll tell you directly.
Is it safe to use the bathroom at all?
Best not to, until someone looks at it. Every flush adds to the problem.
