Septic tank pumping keeps solids out of your drain field. Sludge settles on the bottom of the tank and a crust of scum floats on top. When those layers get thick enough, solids start pushing out toward the pipes that treat the water. A pump out empties the tank before that happens.
Septic Superior is a family business based in Thompson's Station, Tennessee. Buddy Tomlin has worked on septic systems in Williamson County since 2004. He runs the company with his son. That is more than 20 years of septic work in Williamson County behind every pump out.

We start by finding the tank and getting the lid open. Some lids sit a few inches under the grass. Others are buried deeper, and we probe the yard until we hit the corners of the tank. Williamson County keeps records on permitted systems, and an old site plan can save digging time.
Then the hose goes in and the tank is pumped down to the bottom. We break up the crust on top and rinse the walls so packed solids come out too. That rinse is the septic tank cleaning part of the job. With the tank empty, we can see the baffles, and a broken one means septic tank repair.
Tank size drives most of it. A 1,000 gallon tank holds fewer gallons than a 1,500 gallon tank, so it pumps faster. Every gallon we pull out also has to be hauled and dumped at a permitted site. That hauling is a real cost, and it is part of what you pay for.
Time on site is the other half. A lid buried under a foot of dirt has to be dug out first. A tank that has gone fifteen years without pumping holds sludge that has set up hard. Distance from Thompson's Station and emergency calls move the price too.
Most of our septic tank pumping happens within a short drive of Thompson's Station. We pump tanks in Franklin, Spring Hill, Brentwood, Nolensville, and Fairview. We also head out to Columbia, Mount Pleasant, Lewisburg, Murfreesboro, and Dickson. Call (615) 957-9682 if you are not sure we reach your road.
Much of this county sits on heavy clay that drains slowly. Slow soil puts more load on a drain field, so keeping solids in the tank matters here. Everything we pump leaves with the truck. Tennessee rules say that waste has to go to an approved disposal site, and that is where ours goes.

(615) 957-9682From the first phone call to the final grade, here is exactly how it goes.
Tell us what the system is doing, or what the new build needs. You talk to the family, not a call center, and we set a time to come out.
We look at the tank, the field, the soil, and the access. Then you get one price for the whole job before any work starts.
We file the county or state septic permit where the job needs one, then dig, set, and plumb the work to what the permit calls for.
The inspector signs off before anything is covered. We backfill, grade the ground smooth, and leave the yard ready to seed.

A septic tank inspection tells you what shape a system is in before you buy or sell. We open the tank and check the drain field, then put the findings in writing.

A soggy yard or a sewage smell over the field lines means the drain field has stopped absorbing water. We find the failed section and repair it, from a single lateral to a full leach field replacement.

Septic Superior is Buddy and his son. The person who answers the phone is the person planning your dig, and the same hands finish the job. Nothing gets passed to a crew you never met.
Williamson County runs its own septic office, and the counties around it permit through the state. We file the right paperwork in the right office and never cover a system before the inspector signs off.
Tank, field lines, pumps, and the buried sewer and water lines that feed them. When something fails, we find the real cause instead of selling you the part we happen to fix.
A new build that needs a septic system, a tank that is overdue for a pump out, or a drain field that will not dry up? Call or send the form and we will look at the job with you and price the whole thing. The estimate is free.
