  • What septic services do you offer?

    Earth Movers provide full residential septic services, including septic tank pumping and cleaning, routine inspections, and Title V inspections for home sales. We also handle leach field installation and replacement, full system installation for new builds, and system upgrades when an old system fails. Our team can diagnose and repair problems such as broken pipes, failing pumps, and distribution box issues, and we offer excavation services when a system or leach field needs to be replaced.

  • Do you offer emergency service, and what should I do if I have a backup or sewage smell?

    Yes, we offer emergency septic service for backups, overflows, and strong sewage odors that indicate a system failure. If you notice sewage coming up in toilets or drains, standing water over your tank or leach field, or strong sewer gas smells, stop using water immediately and contact us right away. While you wait, avoid flushing toilets, running laundry, or using sinks, keep people and pets away from any contaminated areas, and ventilate the house by opening windows if odors are present.

  • How do I choose a local septic company?

    When you’re trusting someone with your septic system, look for a company that is properly licensed and insured, has strong local experience, and is open about pricing and what’s included in their work. Earth Movers is a local, family‑owned company that has been in business since 2005, specializing in both septic systems and the excavation work that goes with them. We serve Wilbraham, Hampden, Ludlow, Palmer, Monson, East Longmeadow, and Longmeadow, providing septic pumping, inspections, repairs, and full system replacements.

Hydroseeding

After the new septic system is installed, it’s important to properly cover and grade the area to prevent soil erosion and keep your yard safe and functional. We finish the job by adding topsoil over disturbed areas and applying hydroseed to promote healthy grass growth.
