Emergency Septic Service for Mojave Homes
Emergencies in Mojave often arrive with weather. A heavy storm, rare as it is, can push runoff across flat lots and down washes, flooding the soil around a seepage pit or leach field until household water has nowhere to go. Other emergencies come from systems that have simply worn out: an old tank whose baffle has fallen apart, or a pit that has been sealing up for decades and finally stops taking water. Mobile homes and small houses on old tanks tend to back up first, often into a tub or the lowest toilet.
Until the truck arrives, cut water use to almost nothing. Stop laundry and the dishwasher, avoid flushing, and keep people and pets away from any spot in the yard where sewage is surfacing. If wastewater has come into the house, wear gloves, open windows and keep children out of the area. Then think about access. Outlying Mojave lots sit on dirt roads where deep sand, a locked gate or a washout after the storm can stop a heavy truck, so describing the route clearly when you call saves real time.
When you call, give us your street or the nearest cross road, such as Sierra Highway or Oak Creek Road, and tell us what you are seeing. We will get a truck out as soon as we can. Usually we pump first to relieve the backup, then find the cause, whether that is a full tank, a broken baffle, a clogged inlet or a saturated disposal area. You hear what happened and what a lasting fix would involve before any repairs start. Businesses near the air and space port can call us the same way for a backed-up system.

Frequently Asked Questions
The road to our Mojave property washed out in a storm. Can you still reach the tank?
Tell us exactly what the road looks like when you call. Sometimes the truck can approach from another direction or park at the edge of the washout and run a long hose to the tank. If the road is impassable, we will talk through options and come as soon as there is a safe route. Meanwhile, keep water use in the house to a bare minimum.
The restroom at our business near the Mojave Air & Space Port is backing up. What should we do?
Close the restroom and cut water use in the building as much as you can, including kitchen sinks if they drain to the same system. Put up a sign so customers do not use it, then call us with your hours and where the truck can park. We will get a truck out as soon as we can and work to keep the disruption to your business low.
What should I do if sewage is backing up into my house?
Stop using water right away, including toilets, sinks, the washer and the dishwasher, since every gallon adds to the backup. Keep children and pets out of the affected area and avoid contact with the sewage. If a pump alarm is sounding, check the breaker. Then call us so we can get a truck out as soon as we can to pump the system and find the cause.
Is a septic backup always caused by a full tank?
No. A full tank is a common cause, but backups also come from a clog in the line between the house and the tank, a broken inlet baffle, a failed pump in a pump chamber, or a drain field or seepage pit that has stopped absorbing water. That is why we look for the cause after pumping, rather than assuming the job is done once the tank is empty.
