- Standing water or soft spots around septic pits

- Backups during storms or heavy water use
- Long-overdue septic tank maintenance
- High water levels discovered during inspection
Routine septic system maintenance prevents emergencies, extends the life of your system, and protects Hawaii’s groundwater and environment.
