Why is My Toilet Bubbling?

No homeowner wants to hear the unsettling sound of a bubbling toilet. This is something that should be looked at right away, as it's never a good sign. Often, a toilet bubbling requires the help of a professional plumber who can diagnose and resolve the issue. A toilet bubbling is often a clear alert that something worse is to come unless immediate action is taken. Ignoring the bubbling sound can result in a much larger (and more expensive) problem within your toilets and septic systems. What Are the Causes of a Toilet Bubbling? If [...]

Septic Lift Stations – What Are They There For?

Generally, homeowners don't have much reason to be concerned with the inner workings of their septic lift stations until something has gone awry. These stations are an integral part of the sewage system. They can quickly become an emergency should something fail due to a lack of preventative service. Lift stations are responsible for moving wastewater from a lower elevation to a higher one. The nature of gravity forces the necessity of such a system to be in place for the waste to reach its next destination, usually a water treatment plant or drain field. The complex system of [...]

Sand Mounds and Septic Systems

Owning a Florida home with a septic system comes with its own set of rules. The same goes for installing them. With part of the filtration relying on natural processes, septic systems require help from their surrounding environment to thrive and efficiently treat wastewater. Once pushed through your tank, wastewater enters the drain field (or leach field) for its final treatment. This process happens when the wastewater is pushed out of the perforated tubes into the surrounding soil. As it runs down into the water table, the soil filters out any untreated particulates, making the treated water safe to [...]
