Rural lot sizes are generous, often ranging from one to five acres or more.

Septic Tips for Nichols Homeowners
After the flooding Nichols has experienced, it's critical to have your septic system professionally inspected if floodwaters ever reach your tank or drain field area. Floodwater can wash contaminants into your tank, shift components, and saturate the drain field soil to the point where it can't function properly. If you're rebuilding or replacing a system in Nichols, talk to your installer about elevated or mound-style systems designed for flood-prone areas.

Nichols Soil & Septic Conditions
Nichols is located in a flood-prone river basin where soils are frequently saturated, especially in low-lying areas near the Lumber River. The predominant soil types include poorly drained loams and alluvial deposits that hold water for extended periods after rainfall. For septic systems, this means the ground may not be able to absorb and treat wastewater effectively during and after wet weather events.

What People Are Saying
“We were tired of dealing with a discount pumper who just wasn't getting the job done! Our septic system was backing up every 3 to 6 months. Finally, we called Septic Workz. They used the Crust Buster to get all the solids out and then added commercial chemicals to help balance our tank. Three years later, we still haven't experienced any backups!”
