A septic tank is one of the most vital aspects of any property, especially for those who don’t have a connection to the central sewer system. However, just like other systems that we aren’t visible to our eyes, many of us prefer to ignore its existence until one day we’re faced with a septic issue. To ensure that a septic tank functions properly, regular septic cleaning and maintenance are a must. However, just like other situations, accidents may occur with your septic system, but these accidents can easily get out of hand, so you need to seek help from a professional septic company immediately. Remember, emergencies regarding septic systems cannot wait.

Common Septic Emergency Signs

Clogged Drain Lines

Normally, clogs are common in most of the septic systems; they can cause the water movement and cause things like bad odor and delayed drainage. If they aren’t taken care of in a timely manner, these clogs will only grow, and as they grow, the severity of these signs will also increase. There will be serious issues with the water drainage.

Septic System Backups

One of the most dreaded difficulties is backups. It is unhygienic and harmful when wastewater comes back into your home through sinks, toilets, or bathtubs. This is a very important septic emergency, and you should call reliable professionals immediately. If you wait too long, the overflow could cause damage to your walls, flooring, foundations of your home, and pretty much every single other area.

Overflows

If the waste in your septic tank accumulates faster than it can be broken down, it will eventually overflow. This is also an emergency because at first, even though you can only notice a bad odor and don’t mind it a lot, eventually you will see wet areas in your backyard; these are the sewage accumulations. These accumulations can also contaminate the surrounding water supplies, making this an emergency. If you spot overly green patches or wet areas in your backyard, waste no time and contact professionals for septic services.

Steps You Should Take

So, after contacting professionals, what should you do? Here are some of the important steps you shouldn’t miss.

Identify all polluted areas and tell family members to avoid them. If you have children or pets, ask another adult to look after them.
Turn off the water supply to your home. There’s already a situation that most likely can’t be controlled due to an overflowing tank. So, to not aggravate the situation, find the valve and shut off the water supply.
Try to keep as many people away from the house as possible. Even inhaling wastewater can be very toxic, so after shutting off the water, just wait for the professionals to arrive and stay outside.
