How Cesspool Pumping & Cleaning Works in Philadelphia

Our cesspool pumping and cleaning process ensures your system remains dependable. We start with an on-site inspection, using video technology and precise measurements to map your cesspool. Our team then deploys vacuum trucks built for tight city access, so no matter your location, we can reach your property. We pump out all waste, break up any compacted sludge, and use water jets to clean every surface of the tank.

We follow both Pennsylvania and Philadelphia health standards to manage wastewater safely. After cleaning, we run water through your drains to check that everything flows properly and your pipes work as they should. This method helps preserve local water quality and keeps you aligned with city requirements. Whether you have an older, brick-lined cesspool common in many row homes or a modern concrete system, we adapt our approach for best results. We keep full records of each step and your service visit, so you have what you need for future inspections or property sales.

Kevin Kane
When I called and reported a sewer backup in my basement bathroom, a tech was sent to my home in just a few hours. The sewer drain was unclogged. A camera view of the sewer line determined that the entire line had to be replaced. Within a few days the line from my home to the street was repaired. There was snow on the ground and temps were below freezing, but the work continued for three days. Once the frost was out of the ground they came back and replaced the sidewalk and repaired the street. I can’t say enough good things about Zoom Sewer and Drain. From beginning to end they were on top of the project. It all came together without a hitch.
Sue Smith
