Questions and Answers
What should I do if my basement in Manchester floods due to a sewer backup?
First, ensure safety by avoiding contact with standing water. Then, contact us immediately. We can dispatch our jetter and camera trucks to locate the blockage—often tree roots or a collapsed line common in our area—and clear it with high-pressure hydro-jetting. For severe cases, our excavation equipment is on standby for necessary sewer repair or replacement to prevent future flooding.
How often should I have my septic tank pumped in Iowa?
For most households in the Manchester area, we recommend pumping your septic tank every 3 to 5 years. However, the exact frequency depends on your tank size, household size, and usage. As part of our full-service approach, we can provide a precise recommendation during a routine inspection. Regular pumping with our modern pumper trucks prevents system failure and is required for Time of Transfer inspections.
Do you handle both the installation and repair of septic systems?
Yes, we are a complete service provider. From the initial site evaluation and perc test to the final installation using our excavators and backhoes, we manage the entire process. If an existing system fails, our team can diagnose the issue with a camera inspection and perform the necessary repair, whether it's a component replacement or a full system redesign. We have the equipment and experience to handle it all.
