FAQs for Glen Ridge, New Jersey Owners

How often should I pump?

Most Glen Ridge, New Jersey households benefit from 2-4 year intervals, adjusted for occupancy, fixtures, and garbage disposal use.

Do additives replace pumping?

No. Enzymes assist biology but cannot remove solids; pumping is non-negotiable for system longevity.

Can I landscape over the field?

Light native grasses are fine, but vehicles, sheds, and deep roots will choke your drainfield.

What if I smell odors?

Odors signal vent, filter, or overload issues; call us for diagnostics before odors become overflows.

Why camera inspections?

Video gives proof, context, and confidenceno digging until we know what is happening inside.

Is bleach safe?

Small amounts are fine; heavy, repeated bleach shocks harm microbes and slow treatment. We guide dosage and safer options.
