Services & Process

FloHawks covers three distinct service categories. On the plumbing side, they handle drain clearing, pipe repairs, and fixture issues common in both residential and commercial buildings. Their septic services include tank pumping, routine inspections, and system evaluations for real estate transactions in Pierce County. Hydro-jetting is a method that uses high-pressure water to blast through grease, scale, and debris inside pipes or sewer lines, and it's especially effective when standard snaking hasn't solved a recurring blockage. Combining these services means one call can address both the tank and the line leading to it.

Service Area

FloHawks is based in Tacoma and serves Pierce County, including communities like Puyallup, Gig Harbor, Lakewood, and outlying rural areas to the south and east. Their multi-service setup makes them an option for properties anywhere in the greater Tacoma metro area that need plumbing or septic help.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is hydro-jetting and when do I need it?
Hydro-jetting uses a high-pressure water stream to clear stubborn blockages and buildup from inside pipes. It's typically recommended when standard drain snaking hasn't fully resolved a recurring clog, or when grease and scale have built up significantly in a line.
Can FloHawks handle both my indoor plumbing issue and my septic tank?
Yes, they offer plumbing and septic services together, which can be useful when you're unsure whether the problem is in your house's pipes or in the tank itself. A technician can assess both systems during the same visit.
Does Pierce County require septic inspections for home sales?
Pierce County Environmental Services requires an inspection of onsite septic systems when a property changes ownership. The inspection must be done by a state-licensed O&M specialist, and results are submitted to the county.
How long does a septic tank pump-out typically take?
For a standard residential tank, pumping usually takes between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on tank size and how full it is. If the technician needs to locate the tank or uncover buried lids, add extra time for that.
What should I avoid flushing or putting down drains with a septic system?
Wipes (even so-called flushable ones), feminine hygiene products, paper towels, grease, and harsh chemical cleaners can all disrupt a septic system. Stick to toilet paper and avoid pouring fats or oils down kitchen drains.
Is FloHawks available for emergency septic calls in Tacoma?
You can call (253) 499-8855 to ask about their availability for urgent situations. It's always a good idea to ask about after-hours or emergency response policies before you actually need them.
