As a homeowner, you know curb appeal matters. But if your property has a septic system, your landscaping plans<\/a> need to include a little extra thought. With some smart choices, you can protect your system and still have a beautiful yard you love.<\/p>\n Do not cover your septic tank or disposal field with concrete, pavers, or other hardscape features.<\/p>\n TanksAvoid Covering Your Septic Components<\/strong><\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Covering your septic tank makes it harder to access the lids for pumping and maintenance. This can lead to corrosion inside the tank and overflow into the disposal field. If you plan to install pavers in the area, make sure you have risers on your tank. Risers bring access points to the surface so we can pump and clean the system without digging up your landscaping.<\/p>\n
