Our Septic Tank Services

Removes sludge and solids to prevent backups and drainfield damage. Recommended every 3–5 years for most Metro Atlanta homes.

Blast away stubborn roots and grease clogs with high-pressure hydrojetting services. The most effective way to clear backed-up sewer lines without digging up your entire yard.

Frequently Asked Questions About Septic Services
How often should I pump my septic tank?
For most households in Metro Atlanta, we recommend scheduling Septic Tank Pumping every 3 to 5 years. If you have a large family or a smaller tank (1000 gallons), you may need it sooner. Regular pumping removes the solid sludge that builds up over time. If you skip this, that sludge flows into your drainfield, leading to expensive failure and the need for major Septic System Repairs.
My drains are slow and gurgling. Do I need a repair?
Gurgling toilets, slow drains, or a "sewage smell" in the yard are classic signs that your tank is overfull or your lines are clogged. It doesn't always mean the whole system is broken! Often, a thorough cleaning or professional Hydrojetting Service can clear the blockage without digging up your yard. Call us immediately at 404-694-3060 before the backup enters your home.
Do you service commercial businesses and restaurants?
Yes. Unlike many residential-only companies, Septic Tank Guru is equipped for heavy-duty Industrial Septic Tank Repair and commercial grease trap cleaning. We have the large-capacity trucks and specialized equipment needed to keep laundromats, restaurants, and industrial facilities in Conyers and Decatur running smoothly.
How much does a new septic tank cost in Atlanta?
We believe in upfront pricing. A standard Septic Tank Installation for a 1000-gallon tank typically starts around $4,500, which includes the tank and the county permit fee. Larger 1500-gallon systems start around $5,500. However, the final price depends on your soil test results and whether you need a new Drainfield Installation. We handle the permitting and soil testing process for you.
I’m buying a home with a septic tank. Should I inspect it?
Absolutely. A standard home inspection usually does not check the septic tank underground. We provide specialized Real Estate Septic Inspections for buyers and agents. We locate the tank, open the lid, and check the levels and baffles. This small step can save you thousands of dollars by finding hidden issues before you close the deal.
Another company couldn't find my tank. Can you?
We hear this all the time. Many companies don't want to do the hard work of probing and digging. We pride ourselves on locating tanks that others can't. Whether it's buried deep or hidden under landscaping, our team will find it so we can perform the necessary Septic Tank Maintenance.
Do you offer emergency service on weekends?
Yes. Septic disasters don't wait for Monday morning. We offer Emergency Septic Service 24/7, including weekends and holidays. Whether you are in Snellville, Loganville, or downtown Atlanta, we have a technician on standby to stop the backup fast.
