Septic Repair Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a repair call cost?
The cost for a septic system repair depends on the age of your system, the type of components that are damaged and the extent of that damage.
Contact us today for your free repair estimate.
My sewer is backing up, what do I do?
The signs of a sewer back-up are usually indicated by a gurgling sound coming from a toilet or bathtub, and pooling of waste water or spongy areas in the land surrounding the septic tank. If you are experiencing any of these issues immediately stop all water use and call Big Yellow Truck for emergency repair service.
My septic system’s alarm is going off, what do I do?
If your alarm panel sounds, locate the panel to silence the alarm. Then shut off all water flows from the septic tank, and give Big Yellow Truck a call for emergency repair service.
What shouldn’t I put in my septic tank?
Anything that is not biodegradable should not be put into your septic system. This includes diapers, wipes, and most household chemicals. Doing so could ruin the system’s components causing backups, leaks and odours.

Customer Reviews
We called 'Yellow Truck Septic' service when we had a serious problem with our septic tank/field. Jamie and his excellent team found the problem which was being caused by a disintegrating Distribution box. This is the important box that sends the fluid from the tank out into various pipes (usually three) located in the septic field under grass.Our problem was that we did not know where the Distribution box was located since the area had been cemented/tarmac over many years ago.Jamie and his crew located the box and cut through the pavement and replaced the Distribution Box and then proceeded to clean/wash out all the pipes in the field. They also thoroughly checked and cleaned all aspects of the tank outflow and the various pipes.They did excellent work and the overall cost was very reasonable considering the time and effort taken by his team over the better part of two days.I would highly recommend Yellow Truck Septic to anyone. Jamie is very thorough and explains every move that is necessary to fully solve the problem. He gets the job done.
