Septic System Services in Myrtle Beach, SC

There’s really no good time for a septic problem, and yet they tend to show up at the worst possible time. Slow drains, unpleasant odors, or backups can quickly make a home feel uncomfortable, not to mention unsafe. A lot of the times this happens when routine septic maintenance is delayed. Small issues like a full tank or minor blockage can turn into much larger and more expensive problems.

Vines Heating & Air, Plumbing, Restoration provides professional septic system services, including septic tank pumping, septic tank cleaning, and septic tank repair. We know those can sound like scary services, but our team takes the time to explain what’s happening with your system and what it needs to keep working reliably. If you’re noticing warning signs or it’s been a while since your last service, contact Vines to schedule septic service and address the issue before it becomes an emergency.

Benefits of Regular Septic Maintenance

A well-maintained septic system is easier to live with and far less likely to cause unwelcome surprises. Regular septic maintenance helps keep wastewater flowing properly and reduces the risk of backups, odors, and system failures. It also protects the surrounding soil and groundwater, which is especially important for homes that rely on septic systems.

Routine septic tank pumping and inspections help identify issues early, before they lead to costly repairs or emergencies. Maintenance can extend the lifespan of your septic tank and drainfield by preventing buildup that places unnecessary strain on the system. By staying ahead of issues, homeowners can avoid disruptions, protect their property, and be confident that their septic system is operating safely and efficiently.

Our Septic System Services

Septic systems can be high maintenance. They require regular care and occasional repairs to function properly and effectively. Regardless of what you need, from routine maintenance to urgent repairs, Vines provides septic services designed to keep your system working reliably and help prevent unexpected problems. 

Septic Tank Pumping

Septic tank pumping removes built-up waste and sludge that can interfere with proper system function. Regular pumping helps prevent backups, odors, and damage to the drain field. This service is a key part of routine septic maintenance. Scheduling pumping at the right time helps keep your system balanced and efficient.

Septic Tank Cleaning

Septic tank cleaning goes a step further than pumping by thoroughly clearing residue from the tank. This service can be especially helpful if maintenance has been delayed or the system is showing early warning signs of malfunctioning. Proper cleaning helps restore capacity and reduce strain on the system for the longterm. 

Spetic Repairs

Septic tank repair addresses damaged components, leaks, or malfunctioning parts. Call us early if you can, so we can prevent more extensive system failures. Our team assesses the issue and explains repair options clearly. The goal is to restore function while minimizing disruption to your property.

Septic System Inspections

If you suspect your septic system has a problem but aren’t sure, you can call us in for an inspection. We’ll help identify potential issues before they become serious problems. Inspections are often recommended as part of routine maintenance or before major repairs.

2/6/26 Jody Vines determined where pipes had burst & made required repairs and insulated new pipes. He determined there was a small hole in the skirting that allowed the wind to blow into the crawl space. He made a temporary patch to cover the hole. He recommended the water to be cut off at the meter when house is not occupied. Great customer service! 2/2/26 my neighbor heard water running at my house when she took her dog out around midnight. Snow on the ground and extreme cold. I called Vines for emergency service. Jody Vines was dispatched and turned off the water at the meter around 2am. He advised that most likely a pipe had burst under the house in the crawl space. I don’t live there. I live in Atlanta area. A friend will go there to check the interior. I will call Vines to schedule repair & insulate all plumbing in crawl space. Thankfully, I have a plumbing & HVAC service contract with Vnes. They always provide prompt and expert service. Hunter Vines came out to assess problem right away when I called for emergency after hours service 8/19/23 (1am). The water authority had turned off the water at the meter. Hunter turned the water on & found the leaking hose was the problem. The appliance is 17 years old so I decided to have it replaced even though only the hose was defective. Hunter & Andrew picked up new appliance & all components, removed the old appliance, installed new appliance with catch pan, plumbed & wired & turned water back on 8/19 by 5:30 pm. New appliance was installed in a temporary location until water damage restoration is complete but will place in designed area after restoration. They also hauled off the old appliance and components. Superb service! I was referred by my insurance agent, Greg Drennan, SC Farm Bureau, who is friends & networks with Rick Vines.

I want to give a BIG THANKS to your technician Jayson Katerinis for his work. Prompt, Professional, Skilled and Thorough can best describe his work. Not to mention he went out of his way to explain the steps he took so I could better understand. Please pass on my sincere thanks. JW

NIck did a fantastic job today. He was extremely professional and made a point of making sure I understood everything he was doing. By the time he was finished, I was completely comfortable with what had been done. And unlike other repairmen I have used, he was meticulous and left every area he worked in clean and in order. He is a great asset for your company.

Thought he was very polite and helpful especially at the spur of the moment, but the pricing for the diagnosis was way over price! As it turned out I had to replace the unit which cost me over 1400 dollars which included the installation. We used the plumber that the builder uses for the replacement and installation of a new unit. He wanted to charge me 4100 for a new box...
