Septic Rejuvenation
What is septic rejuvenation?
Septic rejuvenation, also known as jetting, is a process we use to restore flow in septic bed lines that have become clogged over time. These blockages are often caused by a buildup of sand, sludge, or biomat, which can stop your system from draining properly. Using high-pressure water, we clean out the lines with the goal of getting them flowing at least 80% better.
However, not all systems qualify for jetting—if the bed is clogged with excessive biomat or heavy sludge, the lines typically can’t be cleared. Systems with sand buildup, on the other hand, usually respond well to this treatment. If you’re dealing with slow drainage or signs of septic bed failure, give us a call and we’ll let you know if your system is a good candidate for rejuvenation.
What can I expect during the process?
Homeowners can expect a straightforward and minimally invasive process during a septic rejuvenation. We start by doing a small excavation to expose the main line going to the septic bed. From there, we use high-pressure jetting to clean out the lines and restore proper flow. The entire job usually takes about a day. Once the cleaning is complete, we backfill the area and finish up by adding grass seed to leave your yard in great shape. Our goal is to fix the problem with as little disruption to your property as possible.
