Septic Service in Chattanooga & North Georgia
Complete Septic Care for Rural and Suburban Homes
Outside city sewer service, many homes across Hamilton and Bradley counties and North Georgia's Catoosa, Walker, Dade and Whitfield counties rely on septic systems. A septic system works quietly for years, but only with regular care. When it's neglected, problems show up as slow drains, odors, soggy ground and, at worst, sewage backing into the house.
Metro handles every part of septic service: pumping and cleaning, inspections, repairs to baffles, lines and pumps, drain field repair and new system installation. Clay soils and rock common in our region make proper design and maintenance especially important.
We explain what your system needs, give you an upfront price and help you keep it running reliably for the long term.

Signs You Need Septic Service
Slow Drains Throughout the House
Several slow drains at once can mean a full tank or failing drain field.
Gurgling Plumbing
Gurgling pipes often signal the system isn't draining properly.
Odors in the Yard
Sewage odors near the tank or drain field mean something needs attention.
Soggy Ground Over the Drain Field
Soggy, spongy ground or standing water over the drain field is a warning sign.
Unusually Green Grass
Extra-lush grass over the tank or field can mean effluent is surfacing.
No Pumping in 3 to 5 Years
If you don't know when the tank was last pumped, it's likely overdue.

What Affects the Cost of Septic Service?
Septic costs depend on the service. Routine pumping depends on tank size and access to the lids. Inspections depend on how thorough an evaluation you need. Repairs and replacements depend on the failed component, whether that's a baffle, pump, line or the drain field itself, along with soil, rock and site access.
We explain what your system needs and give you an upfront price before work begins.
You always get the price before any work begins. Financing is available for qualified customers on larger jobs.
Expert Tip From Metro's Master-Certified Team
Keep a Septic Record
Keep a simple record of when your tank was pumped, its size and where the lids are. A sketch with measurements from the house saves time and digging on every future visit, and helps if you ever sell the home.

(423) 855-0967How often should a septic tank be pumped?
Many households need pumping every three to five years, depending on tank size, household size and water use.
What are signs of a septic problem?
Slow drains throughout the house, gurgling, sewage odors in the yard, soggy ground over the drain field and backups are common warning signs.
Do you service rural properties?
Yes. Many rural properties in North Georgia and outlying parts of Tennessee rely on septic, and we service them regularly.
Should I get a septic inspection before buying?
Yes. A septic inspection before buying a home can reveal problems that would be expensive to fix after closing.
How can I protect my septic system?
Avoid flushing wipes, grease, medications and chemicals. Spread out laundry loads and fix leaks to avoid overloading the system.
Do you offer emergency septic service?
Yes. Septic backups are an emergency. Call (423) 855-0967 any time.
