Professional
Vacuum trucks, proper access equipment and an operator who has been doing this since 2012. We empty the tank fully rather than taking the easy few inches off the top, and we take care getting the truck and hose across your ground.

Septic Tank Pumping & Cleaning in Wellsburg, WV
Wetherell Enterprises pumps and cleans septic tanks throughout Wellsburg and the wider Brooke County area of West Virginia.
We already run between Weirton and Wheeling most weeks, and Wellsburg sits right between the two, so getting to you is straightforward.
Septic Pumping Across Brooke County
Away from the town centre, a good number of Brooke County properties run on their own septic systems. Those tanks fill at a steady rate regardless of how well the system is built, and pumping on a sensible interval is what keeps the drainfield working.
A neglected tank lets solids carry over into the drainfield, and a damaged drainfield is a repair measured in thousands rather than hundreds. Emptying a tank properly is the cheapest maintenance a septic system will ever need.
We handle the full job: locating the access, pumping out sludge and liquid, checking the tank and baffles while it is open, and leaving the ground tidy.
How it works
How We Work in Wellsburg
We keep it simple and we tell you what is happening. The tank gets located, opened safely, emptied properly and inspected while it is accessible, then closed and backfilled.
If we spot a baffle problem, a tank that is filling far faster than it should, or anything else worth knowing, you hear about it on the day.
Locally Trusted
We are a small local outfit working both sides of the river. Wellsburg, Follansbee and Colliers customers deal with the same people every time, and the price we quote is the price you pay.

FAQs
Septic Questions from Wellsburg and Brooke County
How often should a Brooke County septic tank be pumped?
Three to five years is the usual interval. Households with more people, heavy water use, or an older undersized tank should expect to be at the shorter end of that.
Do you cover the rest of Brooke County or just Wellsburg?
The whole county. Wellsburg, Follansbee, Colliers and the surrounding area, along with Weirton to the north and Wheeling to the south.
What are the early signs of a tank that needs emptying?
Slow drains, gurgling from the plumbing, a smell outdoors near the tank or drainfield, soft or wet ground above the system, and eventually sewage backing up indoors.
Can you pump a tank if I cannot find the lid?
Yes. Finding and uncovering a buried access lid is part of the work, not an obstacle to it.
How long will the job take?
A standard tank takes roughly 30 to 60 minutes. Difficult access, a very full tank or a lid that needs digging out will add to that.
Do you offer emergency service in Wellsburg?
Yes, including nights and weekends when conditions allow. Call or text as soon as you notice a problem and we will tell you what we can do.
