Clarify the scope
Ask what is included before work starts. A cleaning-only price may not include a separate pump-out.
Protect the tank
Cracked walls, weak partitions and damaged fittings need evaluation before pressure cleaning.
Filters and outlets
An accessible outlet filter may need attention. Cleaning the tank does not replace a failed pipe or filter.
Commercial waste
Business use and grease waste change the equipment, handling and disposal requirements. Describe the waste when requesting a quote.
A sensible follow-up
Keep the service report and any findings. Plan the next inspection around actual condition and use.
