Frequently asked in Virginia Beach

What is the purpose of a septic tank?

A septic tank is a crucial part of your home's wastewater system. It receives all the water and waste from your toilets, sinks, and showers. The solids settle to the bottom as sludge, while lighter materials float to the top as scum. Bacteria then break down the waste in the tank.

What is the average cost of a septic tank?

How long do septic tanks usually last?

With regular maintenance, septic tanks can last for many years, often 20 to 30 years or even longer. Proper pumping and avoiding harsh chemicals are key to their longevity. Neglecting maintenance can significantly shorten a tank's lifespan, leading to costly repairs or replacements for your Virginia Beach home.

How often do septic tanks need to be emptied?

Septic tanks generally need to be pumped every 3 to 5 years, depending on usage and tank size. Homes with more occupants or those in higher-density areas like Virginia Beach might require more frequent service. Your specialist can advise on the best schedule for your system.
