Septic questions

How often should I pump my septic tank?

Most homes need pumping every 3 to 5 years. Larger households, garbage disposals, and frequent guests mean more often.

What are the signs my septic system is failing?

Slow drains, gurgling pipes, sewage smells inside or outside, wet or very green patches over the drain field, and backups into the house.

Do you do the work yourselves?

No. Temecula Valley Septic is a free referral service. We pass your request to an independent, licensed septic contractor who serves your area. The contractor quotes and performs the work.

Is there a charge for using this site?

No. Requesting a quote here is free and does not commit you to anything.

Do I need a permit for septic work?

Routine pumping usually does not. New systems, replacements and most drain field repairs generally do, through Riverside County environmental health. Your contractor should pull the permit.
