Question

Why should I pump my septic tank?

Pumping your septic tank is essential for maintaining a healthy and efficient septic system. Here’s why: Prevents System Failure – Over time, solids build up in the tank, reducing its capacity and potentially leading to clogs, backups, and even system failure. Avoids Costly Repairs – Regular maintenance is far cheaper than repairing or replacing a failed septic system, which can cost thousands of dollars. Protects Your Property & Environment – Overflowing or leaking septic tanks can contaminate groundwater, nearby wells, and local waterways, causing serious health and environmental hazards. Improves System Efficiency – A properly maintained tank ensures wastewater is processed effectively, reducing the risk of slow drains, foul odors, and backups. Complies with Local Regulations – Many counties and municipalities require periodic septic pumping to meet health and safety standards. Most systems should be pumped every 3-5 years, but the frequency depends on household size, water usage, and tank capacity. Need service? Breakwater Environmental can help!

Question

In Florida, who can work on my Septic system?

In Florida, only licensed professionals can work on your septic system. The Florida Department of Health (DOH) regulates septic system contractors to ensure proper installation, maintenance, and repairs. Here are the types of professionals authorized to work on septic systems in Florida: State-Licensed Septic Contractors – These professionals hold a septic tank contractor license issued by the Florida Department of Health. They are qualified to pump, repair, install, and inspect septic systems. Registered Master Septic Contractors – These individuals have additional experience and qualifications, allowing them to oversee more complex septic projects. Plumbers with Septic Endorsement – Some licensed plumbers may also have the necessary credentials to work on septic systems, but they must meet state requirements. Environmental Health Professionals (for Inspections) – Certain inspections may be performed by local health department officials, especially when buying or selling a property. Unlicensed work on a septic system is illegal and can lead to serious fines and potential system failure. Always verify a contractor’s license before hiring. If you need professional septic services, Breakwater Environmental is fully licensed and ready to help!
