Have a septic-related question? We have the answer. Check out these FAQs and then call or text Ley Septic LLC for more information.
How large of a tank can you pump?
We have a 2500-gallon vacuum truck and a 3800-gallon vacuum truck available. We can pump grease traps, lift stations, and septic tanks of various sizes without making multiple trips. If your tank exceeds our truck's capacity, we can send two trucks. For more information about septic pumping in Conifer, CO, reach out to our team today!
How often should my septic tank get pumped?
This is a great question we get asked often. According to This Old House, it's a good idea to have your tank pumped every three to five years. Your septic tank may need to be pumped more often if you live in a larger house with multiple bathrooms and a large family. Commercial properties should be pumped every year or have their septic system inspected at least once a year.
Pumping any septic tank that is part of a real estate deal is a smart idea. Before you buy a home or property with a septic system, make sure you reach out to our team at Ley Septic LLC for any septic pumping in Conifer, CO.
What types of septic systems do you have?
In our Central Colorado service area, there are many types of septic systems. Before we can pump or service your system, it is helpful to know which septic system you have:
Conventional Septic Systems
Chamber Systems
Drip Distribution Systems
Aerobic Treatment Units
Mound Systems
We can tell you what kind of system you have if you are unsure. Reach out to our team for more information on septic pumping in Conifer, CO.
How do I know if my tank needs to be pumped?
That's a great question! For a family of four, it's usually every three to five years. Pump-outs can be more frequent if you have multiple bathrooms or a suite. Other than the time between each pump-out, there are other indicators you should look for:
Are you experiencing sewage backups in your home?
Are you noticing foul odors coming from your tanks and septic fields?
Are you seeing water seeping into your septic tank?
Another way to determine if your tank is full of scum or sludge is to remove the lid. The scum layer should be at the top of your tank. It should not exceed eight to 10 inches in depth. The sludge layer is at the bottom of your tank. It should not be more than 12 inches in depth. You can check these levels with a pipe length of at least 10 feet or any other measuring tool. If you need septic pumping in Conifer, CO, Ley Septic LLC can help!
Will you be able to reach my septic tank?
All of our trucks come with 200 feet of vacuum hose. We can pump out your septic tanks if we can get our truck within 200 feet of them. If the distance is more than 200 feet, we can send our driver with the necessary extensions. We try to stay off of the grass with our heavier septic trucks. Please let the driver know if you have a preferred route that you would like us to take on your property.

Do you pump out RV septic tanks?
Although we can pump out your RV in certain circumstances, we try to avoid doing so. We might be able to help you if your RV is located on a route that we already service or in an RV park we currently service. You can call our office at (720)-312-7084 if your RV needs septic pumping in Conifer, CO.
Are baby wipes ok to flush down the toilet?
Absolutely not! We are called out to clean out septic tanks that are overflowing into customers' homes on a nearly weekly basis. Baby wipes can often cause problems. While a few wipes don't usually cause any problems, a large number of wipes can clog up your system and cause backups as well as potential damage.
If you're dealing with an overflowing septic tank, reach out to our team at Ley Septic LLC for septic pumping in Conifer, CO.
What should I do to prepare for my service?
