Frequently Asked Questions

We know you got questions and we would love to speak with you over the phone to answer them all, but here are some of the most common questions we get asked on a daily basis.

  • How often should the septic tank be pumped?

    At least every 5-6 years. However, no two septic systems are the same in terms of their content. Diet, lifestyle, and usage can affect the pumping schedule. Just moving into a home with a septic system? Once you have your system inspected to make sure your system doesn’t need to be pumped, you should have it pumped after 2 years. At that time, based on the level of floating solids and sludge, you have a better idea of just how long you can go without having the system pumped.

  • Do I need a permit to repair or install a septic system?

    You need a permit to install a septic system. You do not need a permit to inspect or expose your septic system. 


    Repairs that do not need a permit  are Minor repairs (e.g., replacement of a distribution box, broken piping connection, septic tank lid).


    For repairs not listed above call Applegate Septic & Sewer for a FREE phone consultation at (209) 575-4531.

  • How long does it take to install a septic system (new or replacement)?

    Typical installation is 1-2 days.

  • I have a septic system. Should I add chemicals to it to aid in the breakdown of solids?

    Generally, no. additional chemicals are not necessary because the normal amount of bacteria found in the waste from diets containing meat (beef, chicken and port) are sufficient to breakdown the solids. If, however, the household diet does not contain meat, then you may need to add chemicals to aid in what would otherwise be normal breakdown.

  • How long should leach lines last?

    Typically, 20-30 years with proper maintenance and soil type. Proper maintenance would include pumping the septic system every 5-6 years. In terms of soil type, sandier soils are typically better than heavier, clay type soils.
