Weather this spring has not been kind, with a good bit of rainfall and no relief in sight. We, at Custom Septic, are often asked what the effects of too much water on their clients’ septic systems would be.
Reducing water use: Although your septic tank may appear closed, water could still seep into it if ground moisture levels become oversaturated, potentially leading to flooding of your septic system, and flooding its contents.
When the season of snow, ice, and cold begins to shift, as it always does, to the season of renewal and growth, it may be easier to see signs that your septic system is in need of maintenance and/or repair. If you have a septic system and live in or around Rogers, Minnesota, the team at Custom Septic, Inc., is here to serve you.
The promise of a few months’ break from extreme winter weather allows us to focus on warm weather activities, such as mowing the lawn, gardening, and playing catch in the backyard.
Spring is a time for renewal, and your septic tank should be included in that process. To ensure its optimal performance in springtime, regular maintenance of your system is necessary. Septic problems often arise due to weather changes from winter to springtime – humid ground can become dampened causing the water table to rise, leading to flooding issues as well as other issues within the system. Custom Septic can assist you! Additionally, we provide spring maintenance recommendations for septic systems to avoid problems from occurring in the first place.
Your filters need changing: Spring cleaning has already started, so why not renew your tank’s filter? Your filter can get clogged from spring weather or winter storms

Moving can be an exciting time, whether you’re moving for a job outside your home, upgrading to a larger house for your family, or downsizing for empty nesters. But there are some key distinctions to consider when transitioning from a home with a sewer system to one with a septic tank.
Maintaining and repairing a sewer system is the responsibility of the homeowner. To do this, it’s essential to know where your septic tank is situated and when it was last pumped. Furthermore, gauge how large the tank is and create an effective maintenance plan.
Water systems are often pre-determined, leaving homeowners with no choice. However, many cities and towns across the state have been installing sewer lines to extend a public sewer system to residents. This is a good time to convert a septic system to public sewer systems. Make sure you are familiar with both the pros and cons of each option. Custom Septic can help you make the right decision and convert your Minnesota home from a septic to sewer system.
System design: Your septic system functions completely independently. It filters and treats waste in the tank and drain field, then the process repeats itself. All maintenance and repair work are also done on your property, whereas the local municipality controls sewer systems.
