Complete Septic Services for Hillsboro Properties

Septic pumping

Residential and commercial septic pumping, clearing out built-up sludge and scum and completing a thorough evaluation of the system’s components and overall condition.

Emergency septic pumping

Available 24/7. Whether due to heavy winter rains and the Tualatin Valley’s high water table, system overuse, or forgotten maintenance, we’re ready with same-day septic pumping services.

Septic inspections

Our 21-point stress test and comprehensive evaluation include full documentation of the system’s condition and maintenance needs.

What Makes Septic Systems Different Around Hillsboro?

Homeowners must follow stringent requirements to protect the local streams and groundwater of the Tualatin River Watershed.

Properties with clay, high water tables, and shallow bedrock in Washington County may necessitate Alternative Treatment Technologies (ATTs) approved by the DEQ, such as sand filter systems. Some properties opt for larger drain fields to compensate for the slow absorption of dense clay soils.
