Pinpointing Your Septic Tank

If you’re unsure of exactly where your septic tank is located, you’re not alone—and with Ace Disposal, that’s never a problem. Whether you’ve just moved into a new property, lost track of your system layout, or are managing a commercial site without up-to-date records, our team is equipped with the tools and expertise to find your tank quickly and accurately.

Using advanced locating equipment—including electronic tank locators, probing tools, and in some cases ground-penetrating radar—we eliminate the guesswork. This technology allows us to pinpoint buried tanks with minimal disruption, even in cases where the system hasn’t been accessed for years or the yard has been landscaped over.

Once the tank is located, we proceed with care. If the site includes existing access points like inspection hatches, manhole covers, or risers, we utilize those to minimize excavation. If the access is buried or not easily reachable, our crew will dig with precision to expose the tank safely, avoiding utility lines, landscaping, or hardscaping whenever possible. Our goal is to gain access efficiently while respecting your property’s appearance and structure.

Clear tank access is essential not only for effective pumping but also for proper inspections and long-term maintenance. In many cases, we can install risers to bring future access points to ground level, making it easier (and less costly) for you to stay on top of your septic care without the need for digging during future service visits.

Whether you’re dealing with an older system, an unfamiliar property layout, or simply don’t know where to start, Ace Disposal handles the entire process from location to exposure with professionalism and care. We make it easy to get your system serviced without the stress—and ensure everything is ready for thorough maintenance moving forward.
