Good to know

Septic questions, straight answers

How often should a septic tank be pumped in Newfoundland and Labrador?

Most rural households should pump every 2–3 years. Bigger families, smaller tanks or heavy water use can shorten that to 18–24 months. If you can't remember your last pump-out, it's time.

How much does septic pumping cost in rural Newfoundland and Labrador?

Pricing varies by operator, tank size, access and travel. Call the listed operator for a current quote.

What are the warning signs of a full tank?

Slow drains, gurgling toilets, sewage smell in the yard, or a strip of suspiciously green grass over the tank or field. Sewage backing up into the house means call right away.

Do you service acreages and cabins outside of town?
