Septic Urgency Assessment

Nine questions about what your system is actually doing. You get a severity reading, what it means, and what to do next — before you call anyone.

If sewage is backing up into your house right now, do not fill in a questionnaire. Stop all water use and call (615) 234-9048.

1. Is sewage backing up into the house right now?
2. Is there standing water, soft ground or effluent over the tank or drain field?
3. How are the drains across the house?
4. Any gurgling from drains or toilets?
5. Is there a sewage odour?
6. Is the grass over the tank or field greener or growing faster than the rest of the lawn?
7. When was the tank last pumped?
8. Does your system have an alarm, and is it sounding?
9. Did symptoms return within weeks of a recent pump-out?

Whatever the result says, a person can tell you more in two minutes.
