 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bonzo Septic Repair was fantastic. They responded to my inquiry right away. They were able to come out as soon as possible after our septic alarm went off. They figured out the issue immediately and talked to the septic officer in our township to get approval for work to be done. After the septic officer deemed our tank not up to code, I was given an estimate immediately and they started work the next non-rainy day. Overall they did a great job, explained everything they were doing, and were efficient. I highly recommend them!

They came out over the weekend to troubleshoot an issue with our septic pump and got us set up with a temporary solution to keep everything running. They were back Monday morning and completely resolved the issue. Very professional, responsive, and did great work. Really appreciate them going above and beyond. Highly recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t say enough good things about this septic company and especially the owner Zach! They became truly involved in helping my seller navigate a difficult septic situation. When other companies were not able to help, they took the time to find a solution for this complicated situation during their busiest time of the year. They were responsive, helpful, quick, and incredibly solution-oriented. Highly recommended!
And also, thank you to Priority Crane Rentals too for stepping in and helping with this challenging situation! It took the right people working together and we truly appreciate everyone who went the extra mile to help! 🏡

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bonzo Septic Repair and his team did excellent work at installing a new septic tank at my house. He had to use a huge crane to lift the tanks over the house. It was exciting to see.
Zac and his team were friendly, knowledgeable and professional.
It was a pleasure doing business with him and his wife Stephanie.
I would definitely recommend his services in the future.
Thank you so very much for an amazing job.

Why Choose Us to Pump Your Septic Tank?

Poor pumping leaves sludge behind and can damage baffles. That leads to clogs and early drain field failure. Local homeowners trust us to do the job right the first time.

Our licensed pumping technicians carry full insurance on every job.

We know the soils and septic systems in western Pennsylvania. We follow PA DEP rules and work with local sewage enforcement officers.

You get a clear price before we start. There are no hidden fees.

Skilled Pumping Technicians

Our crew uses modern vacuum trucks and proven methods to pump your tank safely.

How We Pump Your Septic Tank

We follow a careful process so your tank is pumped fully and inspected properly. Here is how our team works:

Locate and Open the Tank

We find your tank using county records, probe rods, or an electronic locator. Then we dig to the lid and open it safely.

Measure and Pump the Waste

We measure the sludge and scum layers first. Then we pump through the main manhole and backflush to break up the solids, so we remove all of the waste.

Inspect the Tank

We check the inlet and outlet baffles, the tank walls, and the effluent filter. We clean the filter if your tank has one.

Haul the Waste Away

Our vacuum truck carries the waste to a licensed treatment facility. We follow all state rules for safe disposal.

Close Up and Report

We seal the lid and clean the work area. You get a service report that shows what we found and when to pump next.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does septic tank pumping cost in Pittsburgh?

The price depends on tank size, how hard the lid is to reach, and how much sludge is in the tank. We give free quotes, so you know the price before we start.

How often should a septic tank be pumped?

Most homes need pumping every 3 to 5 years. Larger families, smaller tanks, and garbage disposals can shorten that time. We can set up a maintenance plan that fits your home.

What are the signs that your septic tank is full?

Watch for slow drains, gurgling pipes, sewage odors, or toilets that back up. Wet spots or bright green grass over the tank may also be a warning sign. These signs can also point to a drain field problem, so call us for an inspection.

How do I find my septic tank?

Check your property records or the county health office for a system drawing. Most tanks sit 10 to 25 feet from the house, in line with the main sewer pipe. If you can’t find it, our crew will locate it for you.

Can I clean my own septic tank?

No. Septic tanks hold toxic gases that can kill a person in minutes. Never enter or lean into a septic tank. Pumping also requires a licensed hauler and a vacuum truck. Let our trained crew handle it safely.
