Do This Right Now While You Wait
These steps limit damage and protect your family until we arrive.
Stop all water use
No flushing, no laundry, no running faucets. Every drop adds pressure and worsens the backup.
Stay away from affected areas
Raw sewage is a health hazard. Keep children and pets out of any rooms with backup or sewage odor.
Open windows if safe
Ventilate the home to reduce sewage gas buildup. Do not use fans that could circulate contaminated air throughout the house.

Emergency Septic FAQs
What should I do right now while I wait?
Stop all water use immediately — no flushing, no laundry, no running faucets. If sewage has entered the home, stay out of affected areas and keep children and pets away. Open windows for ventilation. Our technician will give you more specific guidance when you call.
How fast can you get here?
We aim to be on-site within 2–4 hours of your call. Response time varies by distance and current call volume. We'll give you an estimated arrival time the moment you call so you know exactly what to expect.
Do you charge extra for nights and weekends?
Yes — after-hours emergency service carries an additional fee. We'll quote you the exact price before dispatching, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
Will emergency pumping fix the problem permanently?
Emergency pumping stops active backup and stabilizes your system. It doesn't fix the root cause. After pumping, we'll diagnose exactly what triggered the emergency — full tank, pump failure, blockage, or drain field failure — and give you a clear repair plan.
Is sewage backup dangerous to my health?
Yes. Raw sewage contains bacteria, viruses, and parasites. Avoid contact with sewage or affected surfaces. Wash hands thoroughly if any contact occurs. If sewage has contaminated a large area, professional remediation may also be needed — we can refer you to trusted partners.
Can I use toilets or sinks while I wait?
No. Any water you add to the system increases pressure and can worsen the backup. Avoid all water use until we arrive and stabilize the system.
What if the drain field is the problem?
Drain field failures can't be fixed by pumping alone, but emergency pumping still relieves immediate pressure. After stabilizing the situation, we'll assess the field and discuss repair options — from targeted restoration to full replacement — with honest pricing.
