Why Memphis Homeowners Call Us First
"Tank backed up on a Saturday morning and they had a truck in my driveway before noon. The tech walked me through what happened and had us back to normal the same day. Can't ask for better than that."
Danny R.
"Another company told me I needed a whole new drain field. These guys opened it up, showed me it was a clogged baffle, and fixed it for a fraction of what I was quoted. The price they gave me on the phone was the price on the invoice."
Melissa C
"They pumped our tank, checked the baffles and lids, and left the yard looking like they were never here. First septic company I've used that actually explained what they were doing. We're on their reminder list now and won't use anyone else."
James and Carol W.
SOUND FAMILIAR?
Slow Drains? Sewage Smell? Alarm Going Off in the Yard?
Your septic system doesn't fail politely. It backs up into your tub on a Sunday, floods the yard before a family cookout, or sets off the alarm at 2 AM.
Most companies make it worse: they won't give you a price until the truck is in your driveway, they push a full replacement when a repair would do, or they never call back.
We do it differently. A straight answer on pump vs. repair vs. replace, and an upfront price in writing before any work starts.
- Backups & slow drains diagnosed same visit
- Honest findings, no scare tactics
- Written upfront price before any work starts

QUESTIONS WE HEAR EVERY WEEK
Straight Answers to Common Septic Questions
How much does septic tank pumping cost in Memphis?
Most residential pump-outs in Memphis run between $$300 and $$700, depending on tank size, access, and how long it has been.
How often should my septic tank be pumped?
Every 3 to 5 years for most households. Bigger families and garbage disposals push that toward every 3.
What are the warning signs of septic failure?
Slow drains, gurgling pipes, sewage odors inside or outside, soggy spots over the drain field, and alarms going off.
Do you offer emergency septic service?
Yes, 24/7. Backups and overflows are health hazards, and we treat them that way.
Do I need to replace my whole system, or can it be repaired?
Most of the time it can be repaired. Failed baffles, cracked lids, and clogged lines are all fixable without a full replacement.
Are you licensed and insured?
Fully. Southern Septic Services is licensed by the TN Department of Health for septic installation and repair, and we carry full liability insurance.
