Septic Pumping:
From residential properties to large commercial facilities Mumford Services will be able to complete your job on time and at an affordable price. Most Septic tanks need pumping every 1-5 years depending on usage. Some local towns have ordinances in place that require owners to pump their septic tanks every 3 years. The reason for pumping septic tanks is to remove the solids that have collected over time and to prevent them from entering into the leach field. Cesspools should be emptied annually.

Inspections (Town):
Many towns in Rhode Island have wastewater ordinances that require property owners to maintain their septic systems. At Mumford Services we have several licensed inspectors that are qualified to do the town inspections. Our inspectors will come to your site and perform a complete and thorough maintenance inspection. After the inspection, our company will submit all necessary paperwork and reports to the corresponding town.

Inspections (Real Estate):
It is very important in this day and age to have a septic system inspected any time a real estate transaction occurs at a property. It is very important to know if the septic is working the way it should be or if there are any issues you should know about before closing on a property. Many banks will require this before a closing on a property. Mumford Services is licensed to conduct a real estate inspection on a septic system. The first part of a Mumford Services inspection will consist of filling in a form recommended by the State of Rhode Island. This form asks many questions about the septic tank and the condition of the leach field. The second part of this inspection will consist of a flow test. During a flow test water is run into the septic system to test the capabilities of the system. This amount of water is usually 60-75 gallons per bedroom.

Repairs:
From broken covers to system failures, Mumford Services can take care of your repair. We have two licensed DEM Designers and Installers on staff. Paul Mumford Sr. and Jr. are both qualified from start to finish. They enroll in continuing education classes at the University of Rhode Island to ensure that their knowledge is up to date with the newest technology in the industry.
