K T Moore Septic Tank Services provides the straightforward, experienced service that rural homeowners need. We’re not upselling unnecessary work or cutting corners to save time. We pump tanks thoroughly, repair systems honestly, and explain what you actually need versus what can wait.

Reliable Care for Rural Septic Systems
Rural systems throughout Vance and Granville Counties need regular attention to avoid the backups, failures, and expensive repairs that result from neglect. Older systems especially—many homes in Kittrell and Henderson have tanks installed 20-30 years ago—require careful maintenance as components age and deteriorate. We provide the preventative care that keeps systems running: routine pumping that prevents hydraulic overload, repairs that address age-related failures before they cascade, and inspections that catch developing problems while they’re still manageable. Your septic system is your utility—the infrastructure that makes rural living possible. We keep that utility functioning with reliable, experienced service.
- Septic Tank Pumping & Thorough Waste Removal — Regular pumping removes accumulated sludge that threatens your drainfield and prevents the hydraulic overload that causes sewage backups. We pump residential tanks every 3-5 years depending on household size, removing the complete sludge layer from the tank bottom, clearing scum from the surface, and ensuring tanks are actually clean—not just surface-pumped. For rural properties in Kittrell, Henderson, and Oxford where septic failure means no working plumbing, routine pumping is the most cost-effective maintenance you can perform. We schedule reminders when your next service is due so you don’t have to track intervals yourself.
- Septic System Repair & Component Replacement — Aging septic systems develop predictable problems: baffles deteriorate and allow solids to escape into drainfields, inlet/outlet pipes crack and leak, distribution boxes (D-boxes) settle and create uneven flow, and lateral lines break from tree root intrusion or soil movement. We diagnose these problems accurately and repair what’s actually broken—not recommend full system replacements for issues that need targeted fixes. We replace damaged baffles, repair cracked pipes, reset distribution boxes, and clear root-invaded laterals with the practical solutions that rural budgets require.
- Septic System Inspections & Health Checks — Preventative inspections catch problems before they cause emergencies. We measure sludge and scum layers to determine if pumping is overdue, inspect baffles for deterioration, check tank structural integrity for cracks or settling, evaluate effluent filters if present, and look for warning signs in drainfield areas like standing water or unusually green grass. For real estate transactions, we provide comprehensive inspections that document system condition and needed repairs, protecting buyers from inheriting expensive problems and helping sellers address issues proactively.
- Tank Cleaning & Filter Maintenance — Beyond basic pumping, thorough tank cleaning removes the biomat that accumulates on walls and components, clears debris from baffles, and washes down surfaces that harbor odor-causing bacteria. We also clean effluent filters—the “kidney” of your septic system that traps solids before they reach the drainfield. Clogged filters cause backups that mimic full tanks, and many homeowners pump unnecessarily when filter cleaning would restore function. We identify these situations and provide the appropriate service at the appropriate cost.
- Baffle Repair & Replacement — Baffles (the T-pipes at tank inlet and outlet) are critical components that prevent floating scum from leaving the tank and reaching the drainfield. When baffles deteriorate—common in older systems—solids escape and rapidly clog drainfield laterals, causing expensive failures. We inspect baffles during pumping visits, identify deterioration early, and replace damaged baffles before they cause drainfield problems. This preventative repair saves thousands compared to drainfield replacement costs.
- Drain Cleaning & Mainline Service — Sometimes slow drains aren’t septic problems—they’re plumbing obstructions between your house and tank. We diagnose whether issues stem from clogged household drains, mainline obstructions, or actual septic system problems. We clear mainline blockages with professional equipment, preventing unnecessary septic pumping for problems that don’t require it. This honest diagnosis saves money and solves the actual problem rather than treating symptoms.
