Winston-Salem, NC Septic Tank Installation

Your septic tank should last about 15 to 20 years before you need a new one. It’s important to properly maintain your septic tank by a PF Plumbing plumbing professional at least once a year. Proper, annual maintenance will greatly lengthen your septic tank system’s lifespan.

The cost of a new septic system will depend on the size of the system, plus the cost of the installation. If you’re thinking about getting a new septic system, call PF Plumbing to have a plumbing expert assess your home and give you a price quote.

Advantages of new septic systems over older septic systems are the use of PVC lining which will greatly increase your septic tank’s lifespan, reduce the risk of system backups (when properly maintained), and in general, require less maintenance.

Usually when a septic system fails, the drain field is not functioning correctly which is caused by septic sewage overflow. Signs that your septic system might be failing are slow draining toilets and drains, wet areas on or around the drain field, foul odors, or contaminated well water. If you’re experiencing any of the aforementioned issues, call the PF Plumbing plumbers out to inspect your septic tank and properly diagnose the issue.

There isn’t necessarily any one type of septic system that is better than another, rather, there is a type of system that will be best for your home and needs. If you’re looking to install a new septic system, consult with the PF Plumbing plumbing experts who will assess your property and your family’s needs and give you a recommendation.
