What do you need done?

Pumping & cleaning

Routine pumping removes the sludge that builds up in your tank. Most households need it every three to five years.

New system installation

New homes and failed systems need a permit from your county health department and a state-certified installer.

Repairs & drain fields

Slow drains, odors, wet spots or backups can mean a clogged line, a failed pump or a struggling drain field.

Perc tests & site work

Before building on land without public sewer, a site evaluation shows what kind of system the soil can support.

Common questions

How often should a septic tank be pumped?

Every three to five years is typical for a household system. Larger families, smaller tanks and garbage disposals mean more frequent pumping. Aerobic systems usually need service more often.

Who can install a septic system in West Virginia?

West Virginia certifies onsite sewage system installers through the state's Office of Environmental Health Services. Each county page lists the certified installers based in that county alongside septic companies.

Do I need a permit?

Yes, for a new system or a major repair. Permits are handled by your county health department, which usually also arranges the site evaluation.

What if there's no company in my county?

Many septic companies travel across county lines. Each county page also lists companies that serve it from nearby, including ones that name the county as part of their service area.
