Can I clean my septic tank myself?

While it is possible to clean your septic tank yourself, it is not recommended. Septic tank cleaning involves pumping out large amounts of waste material, which can be messy and potentially hazardous to your health. In addition, without the proper equipment and expertise, you may cause damage to your septic system or fail to properly clean the tank. We recommend leaving septic tank cleaning to the professionals at Red Rooter Plumbing.
