Local detail matters

Walnut Grove is about 20 miles north of our Springfield shop, and the city limits only cover 0.62 square miles, so most of the tanks we work on sit on the farm ground and acreage outside that line. Those properties usually have room for a 1,000 or 1,500 gallon tank and a full drain field, and they also mean a long hose pull if the truck can't get within about 100 feet of the lid. Call (417) 423-7281 and we'll set a time and give you a firm price on site before any work starts.

Septic pumping and repairs on Walnut Grove acreage

Most Walnut Grove calls start the same way: we need to find the lid. On acreage that has been mowed and hayed for decades, the manhole and inspection ports are often 6 to 12 inches under sod. We probe for the tank, open it, measure sludge and scum depth, and pump both compartments through the center wall rather than just skimming the outlet side. While the tank is empty we look at the inlet and outlet baffles, since a broken outlet baffle is what sends solids out to the drain field. If we dig for the lid twice in one year, we will talk to you about setting risers to grade.
