Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I pump my septic tank in Fort Lauderdale? expand_more
While the general rule is 3-5 years, Fort Lauderdale’s high water table and heavy rains can cause systems to fill faster. We recommend a check every 3 years for properties near the Everglades or in low-lying areas.
Does Broward County require septic inspections? expand_more
Broward County regulates septic systems to protect the ground water. While routine inspections aren’t always mandated by the county for single-family homes, they are often required for property transfers (real estate sales) and to ensure environmental compliance.
What happens if I don’t pump my tank? expand_more
Solid waste will eventually fill the tank and flow into your drain field, clogging the pipes. This leads to sewage backing up into your home and can require a complete (and very expensive) drain field replacement.
