Septic Tank Cleaning Service in Algarve - Submersible Sewage Pump Systems

When should you clean your septic tank?

In most cases, septic tanks should be cleaned every 2 to 3 years, depending on usage, tank size and number of occupants.

However, you may need urgent cleaning if you notice:

Slow drainage throughout the property;
Bad smells around the tank or drains;
Water backing up in sinks, toilets or showers;
Overflow or wet ground near the septic area;

How the septic tank cleaning process works

Our service is carried out in a structured and safe way:

Access and inspection – we locate and open the tank, checking levels and condition;
Suction and removal – all waste is removed using vacuum trucks;
Cleaning and verification – internal inspection to identify any issues or damage;

All collected waste is transported and disposed of in authorised facilities, in compliance with environmental regulations.

Preventive maintenance is essential

Regular maintenance helps avoid expensive repairs and system failure. We also recommend periodic inspections, especially for systems with pumps or mechanical components.

For properties in Algarve with high usage (holiday rentals, restaurants, hotels), more frequent cleaning may be necessary.

What to do in case of a full septic tank?

Stop Water Usage Immediately:
Cease all water usage in your home. Do not flush toilets, run sinks, use washing machines, or take showers. Reducing water usage helps prevent further strain on the already full septic tank and minimizes the risk of sewage backups.
Identify the Location and Severity of the Issue:
Determine if the issue is specific to your septic tank or if it's a larger problem affecting the drain field or distribution box. Understanding the location and severity of the problem will help when communicating with a professional.
Contact a Professional Septic Tank Service:
Call a licensed septic tank service or a professional plumber with experience in septic systems. We have the expertise and equipment to assess the situation, pump out the septic tank, and address any underlying issues.
Keep People and Pets Away:
Avoid the area around the septic tank, especially if you notice any signs of sewage backup or odors. Exposure to raw sewage poses health risks, and keeping people and pets away from the affected area is essential for safety.
Prevent Future Issues with Regular Maintenance:
After resolving the immediate problem, consider implementing a regular septic tank maintenance schedule. This typically involves having the tank pumped every few years, depending on the size of your household and the tank. Regular maintenance can help prevent future overflows and extend the lifespan of your septic system.
