Space laundry and showers to avoid hydraulic shock, especially after heavy rain.

Keep vehicles, sheds, and heavy planters off the drainfield to prevent compaction.

Healthy microbes keep odors and backups away.

Direct roof drains away from the field to reduce saturation risk.

Watch for slow drains or gurgles; they are early warning signs worth a quick inspection.

FAQs for Petroleum County MT

How often should I pump?

We set your interval after measuring levels and usage, not guesswork.

Do additives replace pumping?

Additives are companions, not substitutes.

Can I landscape over the field?

Use shallow roots and keep heavy items away to avoid compaction and root intrusion.

What if I smell odors?

Smells are alerts, not mysteries; diagnostics are quick.

Why camera inspections?

Cameras reveal cracks, roots, and misalignments without digging, saving money and lawn health.

Is bleach safe?

Light use is fine; heavy bleach shocks harm microbes and slow treatment.

What about heavy rain?

Direct gutters away, reduce indoor water spikes, and schedule checkups if fields stay wet.

Can I DIY?

Safety, compliance, and accuracy matter too much to risk.

How do you price?

Flat, transparent quotes tied to scope and accessno hidden fees or upsell pressure.
