Our Pumpers are friendly and knowledgeable to answer all of your septic related questions. We can find, dig-up, and pump your septic tank so that you can get on with your daily life. Our pumpers are also qualified to assess the health of your septic system to let you know if there is a problem requiring further work. Residential septic tanks should be pumped every 3-5 years depending on the number of people living in the house. Learn more about septic tank pumping in Fresno & Madera Counties

Septic REPAIRS
When a septic system stops working properly, fast diagnosis matters. Big Bore Drilling handles septic repairs involving tanks, lines, and other system components, helping property owners address backups, poor drainage, and failing parts before they turn into larger problems. Learn more about septic repair services.
Leach lines allow water from your septic tank to leach back into the ground. These long trenches are filled with gravel and they are fed by a perforated pipe. Water flows through the pipe and leaches through the gravel and then into the ground. If your system is continuously backing up, it could be a sign that you need new leach lines. Learn more about leach line services.
DRAin Wells
Drain wells are vertical drainage structures used when site conditions make standard leach lines impractical or when a different dispersal method is required. Big Bore Drilling installs drain wells for septic and drainage applications where soil conditions, property layout, or engineering requirements call for a deeper solution. Learn more about drain well services.
An engineered septic system is a solution to a problem. Some properties have very limited space, poor draining soil, or high ground water issues that would cause septic problems if the system is not engineered to account for these factors. Learn more about engineered septic systems.
Test holes are required to be dug and inspected by Fresno County before the installation or repair of any septic system. The purpose of these test holes is to identify the soil type on the property as well as to check for any ground water above the depth of 10 feet. Learn more about septic system test holes.
A septic lift station is used when a traditional gravity fed septic system is not possible. Lift stations can be used to put sewage from the house to the septic tank, or from the septic tank to the drainage system such as leach lines or drain wells. Learn more about septic lift stations
When a property is ready or required to transition from septic to city sewer, Big Bore Drilling can excavate, pump, and properly abandon the existing septic system before connecting the property to the city sewer line. Read more about septic system abandonment and city sewer connections.
