Anderson is a small town in eastern Lauderdale County, up in the far northwestern corner of Alabama near the Tennessee line. It is quiet country, farmland and rural homes on larger lots, not far from Elkmont and the Limestone County line to the east.
There is no city sewer out here. Homes run on private septic and usually well water, so a dependable septic company that answers the phone is worth knowing. Anderson is a drive west and north from our Athens base, and it is part of our service area.
Far corner country, all on septic
Anderson sits in the far corner where Alabama, Tennessee and the Lauderdale and Limestone lines come close together. It is rural through and through. Homes here run on a septic tank and drain field with water from a private well, and there is no municipal sewer to fall back on. That makes maintaining the tank the homeowner's job, and it is the work we do.
It is a longer trip from Athens, but Anderson is on our map and we are glad to serve it.
Keep the tank pumped, protect the field
The expensive septic problem is a failed drain field, and the way to avoid it is to keep the tank pumped so solids never reach the field. Every three to five years is right for a typical household, sooner with a full house or a garbage disposal. North Alabama clay drains slowly, so the field does not need extra strain.
Slow drains, gurgling, or odor in the yard are your cue to call before it turns into a backup inside.

Finding tanks and easing service
On older Anderson properties, the tank lid is often lost under years of grass and dirt. Locating it is routine for us. We find it, pump the tank, and can add a riser so the access comes up to grade for next time. We also clean effluent filters, which clog gradually and can act just like a full tank if nobody tends to them.
One call covers the whole system.
Fixed prices, honest work
Call (256) 604-9681 and you get a fixed price over the phone, no surprise charges when we arrive. Anderson folks like that we answer the phone, quote fair, and show up when we say.

Straight talk and a fair number, all the way out to the corner of the state.
