How Often Does a Septic System Need To Be Inspected in Clark County?
Clark County Public Health requires routine operation and maintenance inspections for every property served by a septic system. Your schedule depends on the type of system you have:
- Conventional gravity and pump-to-gravity systems
- Every three years
- Pressure distribution systems
- Every two years
- Sand filters, sand mounds, aerobic treatment units, and other advanced systems: Every year
Food establishments need a yearly inspection no matter what system they use. Properties more than a year past due are charged a non-compliance fee, so it’s important to stay on schedule.
How Do I Know What Type of Septic System I Have?
Look up your parcel in Clark County’s Property Information Center to find your system records. Your property documents should include the as-built drawing, original permit, and design. You can also search your address on OnlineRME to see past inspection reports, which list your system type.
A few clues in your yard can also help you narrow it down. An alarm panel near the tank usually means you have a pump, while a raised, grassy hump signals a sand mound. If your records are missing or don’t match, our technicians can locate the components and identify which system your property relies on.
Common Signs Your Septic System Needs Service
If you notice any of the following, cut back on water use and give us a call to schedule service as soon as possible:
- Drains running slowly throughout the house
- Gurgling sounds coming from toilets or drains
- Soggy or unusually green grass over the drain field
- Wastewater backing up into your basement drains or fixtures
- A pump or high-water alarm going off
Can Heavy Rain Affect a Septic System?
Clark County’s long wet season puts added strain on local septic systems. When the ground stays saturated from fall through spring, the drain field has nowhere to send wastewater and the whole system starts to slow down.
You’ll often notice toilets slow down, the yard turning soggy, or sewage backups in your lowest drains. If warning signs stick around after the weather dries out, there’s likely a problem with the system itself that requires a professional inspection from our team.

What Happens During a Septic Service Appointment?
When you call our team for septic services, we start by asking what’s happening with your system. We’ll evaluate your situation and dispatch the closest truck for emergencies or book routine service at a time that fits your schedule.
Once on site, our technicians locate your tank, perform the service, and check the baffles, pump, and drain field for early signs of trouble. You’ll get a complete review of our findings after we’re done, and documentation for your records.
At Speedy Septic, we go the extra mile that other septic companies often skip. Instead of just pumping your system and leaving, we take the time to perform a complete and thorough evaluation of your system that catches problems before they turn into backups. It’s that attention to detail that has made us the trusted name for septic services across Oregon and Washington.

Frequently asked questions
Slow drains, odors, and gurgling often point to a full tank that needs pumping, while recurring problems and soggy ground are signs you need repair. Our technicians check the whole system on every visit, so you know exactly what it needs.
If sewage starts backing up into your home, immediately stop using water and call us for emergency service. While you wait for our team to arrive, keep kids and pets away from wastewater.
Pumping costs depend on how many gallons we remove, your tank size, and how easy it is to access the lids. Repair costs vary with the problem, the parts involved, how much digging is required, and whether the work needs a county permit.
