Septic Services in Coral Springs

Most of Coral Springs runs on central sewer, so a septic tank is easy to forget. A small number of homes still have one, most of them on lots of an acre or more. When solids build up in a tank, the system can fail. Then drains slow down, or sewage backs up into the house.

Jojo Septic serves Coral Springs as part of our four-county service area in South Florida. For homes on septic, we handle septic tank pumping and tank repairs. We also take on drain field repair and add risers so the tank can be reached without digging. Call or text (561) 239-5838, and we will look at the job and put the quote in writing.

Does Your Coral Springs Home Have a Septic Tank?

Coral Springs was planned from the ground up on what had been a green bean farm and cattle field. Today most of the city is on central sewer. The state health department keeps a wastewater inventory for properties across Florida. It lists about 140 parcels inside Coral Springs city limits as known or likely septic.

Nearly all of those septic home sites sit on lots of an acre or more. Most are between Sample Road and Wiles Road, from Coral Springs Drive east to University Drive. Not sure what your home has? The county health department may have the septic permit and site plan on file.

The state's septic owner's guide gives one more clue. Look for the cleanout on the sewer pipe, usually outside the house. On a septic home, that pipe leads to the tank. Call 811 before anyone probes the ground to find it.

Coral Springs Soils, Water Tables and Drain Fields

Federal soil maps show much of Coral Springs on Hallandale fine sand, a thin layer of sand over limestone. In most years, its water table rises to within a foot of the surface for four to five months.

Margate fine sand, which shares its name with the city next door, also sits over fractured limestone. Where that soil has been drained, its water table rises and falls with the water in nearby canals. The soil survey maps some wetter ground in the city as muck, a soil formed from marsh plants.

The state's septic guide warns that extra water around a tank and drain field can make a system fail. It says to send downspouts away from both and keep cars off them. Under the state septic rule, sewage coming up on the ground counts as a failure. If you see that, ask us about septic tank repair.

Coral Springs Homes and Their Sewer Lines

Census figures put the median build year of Coral Springs homes at 1987. More than half were built in the 1970s and 1980s. About half of all housing units are single-family detached homes. The city describes itself as fully built out.

Coral Springs has four water districts, and the city's own district is one of them. If it serves your home, it asks you to call it first about a sewage backup. It clears blockages inside the city right of way.

A clog on the house side of the right of way is a separate job. For a clogged sewer line there, we offer hydro jetting. The drain lines inside the house are a job for a plumber.

Who Permits Septic Work in Coral Springs?

Septic permits in Coral Springs come from the Florida Department of Health in Broward County. The state sets the rules, and the county office does the permitting and inspections. State law requires a permit before anyone repairs or abandons a septic system. A routine pump-out is not a repair under the state rule.

A repair application includes a site plan and an evaluation of the existing system. Closing an old tank when a home moves to sewer takes an abandonment permit. A new system needs two soil profiles in the drain field area, dug to 72 inches where the ground allows.

Most of Coral Springs also sits inside a state-mapped area for nitrogen-reducing systems. There, new systems on lots of one acre or less must be that type when sewer is unavailable. The county health department decides for each property. If your lot needs a new system, ask us about septic system installation.

Coral Springs FAQ

Questions We Hear Around Coral Springs

A few of the questions we hear most around Coral Springs. If yours is not here, call or text and ask.

Call (561) 239-5838

How much does septic tank pumping cost in Coral Springs?
The price depends on the size of the tank and how easy the lid is to reach. The gap between pump-outs matters too. If no one knows where the tank is, finding it adds time. We look at the job and put the quote in writing before any work starts.
How often should a septic tank be pumped?
The state's septic owner's guide says to have the tank inspected and pumped every 3 to 5 years. It says a home with a garbage disposal should have the tank checked more often. After a pump-out, mark the tank's spot and take a photo so it is easy to find next time.
My toilet backed up in Coral Springs. Who do I call first?
Start with whether the home is on septic or sewer. If the city's own water district serves a sewer home, it asks customers to call it first. If the home has a septic tank, call or text (561) 239-5838 about emergency septic service.
Do I have to hook up to sewer if a line reaches my property?
Sewer counts as available when a line runs in a public easement or right of way at your property line. Under Florida law, a working septic system must connect within 365 days after written notice that sewer is available. If the system needs repair, the deadline is 90 days after written notice from the state. Closing the old tank then takes an abandonment permit from the county health department.
Which office handles which permit in Coral Springs?
Septic permits come from the Florida Department of Health in Broward County. Building permits come from the City of Coral Springs Building Department, through its online portal. You may ask a chief inspector there about code requirements before a project starts.
