How to Disguise Your Septic Tank

Septic tanks are an essential part of the plumbing system in your home. They provide the space and capacity for wastewater to decompose so that it doesn't back up into your house. At Charlotte Septic Pros, we help local property owners improve the efficiency and longevity of their septic systems. Our specialists provide a wide selection of services, including septic tank installation and septic tank repair. While most homeowners and businesses enjoy having a septic tank that works at its best, they're not always easy to disguise. In this article, we'll discuss several ways to hide a septic tank in your yard while still ensuring it works well.

Creative Ways to Camoflouge Your Septic Tank

If you're looking for a way to hide your septic tank, there are plenty of options. Here are some ideas:

  • Wine Barrel: A wine barrel is a great way to hide your tank by keeping it in your yard, especially for those who like a rustic or farmhouse decorative style. The barrel can also be used as an outdoor planter or for additional storage.
  • Landscaping Rocks: Landscaping rocks are another great option that offers protection from weather damage while allowing you still enjoy the natural beauty of stone retaining walls around your home or business property.
  • Artificial Rock Lid Cover: If you don't want to handle real rocks on your property, then consider an artificial rock lid cover. They come in a variety of options that look very realistic. They can also help protect your tank from weather damage and keep it safe from falling debris like leaves or rocks; it's also easy to clean! It's one of the easiest ways we've found so far.
  • Lightweight Decorations: You can also incorporate garden features to obscure unwanted eyesores and distract the eyes toward something beautiful. Items like a small picket fence with a bird bath and lawn decor can keep your yard looking great.

Avoid The Following Techniques

While there are plenty of great ways to hide your septic tank, you should avoid certain techniques. If it will be a safety hazard, damage your septic system, or make it difficult to access the tank for maintenance and repair tasks, then it should be avoided. Here are a few examples of what you shouldn't do:

  • Concrete Slab
  • Deck or Patio
  • Sidewalk or Walkway
  • Ornamental Trees or Shrubs
  • Flower Beds
  • Heavy Objects
