"Manny and Danny were so kind, knowledgeable, and offered us several options to replace our hot water heater. We only had to wait one day from original inspection to the installation of our new tank!! I wish I could give them higher scores, as they truly went above and beyond throughout the tank replacement. We feel lucky that we found this company, and this is the second time that we have required their services. Our first issue ironically, was a week before, as we needed our kitchen sink unclogged. As soon as our hot water heater died, after approximately 11 years of use., we didnâ t hesitate, and phoned Temperature Control Plumbing! The phone technicians, team members , and the plumbers were extraordinary, and I highly recommend Temperature Control Plumbing for all of your plumbing needs! Thank you!!"

"Quick attention, only one hour to dispatch Mitch to my home. He quickly diagnosed and fixed the major problem and was a pleasure to work with. Plumbing is expensive work, but I felt their quote was reasonable and the work was well done."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Utilizing Angie's list to find Coles Excavating was extremely helpful to find a reliable and knowledgeable Contractor. I obtained 3 bids as recommended. Robert Cole answered all my questions and immediately made an appointment to look at our septic tank that needed to be replaced. He recommended a septic tank that was available at Home Depot and we were able to purchase using my military discount saving additional cost. Robert gave us a fair and competative price. He completed the installation and did a good job restoring the desert landscape. From beginning to end Robert communicated with us to ensure we knew each stage of the project. We can highly recommend Robert and his sons for excavation and septic tank installation."

"Dan C. arrived on time and, despite an immovable shelf over the tank, diagnosed the problem. Although he barely had room to reach into the tank, he was able to replace the original gasket, which had all but disintegrated. Problem solved. Dan explained everything he was doing, and despite having to struggle to install the gasket, was patient and affable throughout. Would definitely hire again."

"They have been coming out to my house for 20 years. They are a good company. They are prompt, professional, and clean up after themselves. Their price is okay, but worth it. They are knowledgeable. It took them about five hours. It was complicated because the lid fell apart and they had to bring it up from the septic tank, which was ugly. They cleaned up completely."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Age is certainly a factor in well pump failure. The older your pump, the more likely it is to fail. 

Beyond age, other factors can cause your well pump to fail, too. Things like poor water quality can cause sediment buildup in your pump. Without proper cleaning, your pump can seize up and fail. Having a dry well for too long can also cause your pump to fail, as it keeps working even though there's no water for it to pull. 

Most well pump pressure switches have a factory setting of 30 to 50 PSI. There’s some flexibility with this if you’d like a lower or higher water pressure, but remember that it should sit 2 to 3 PSI above your well tank’s general pressure setting.

The inside of your pressure switch cover will usually indicate minimum and maximum settings—going below and above the numbers might damage your well pump.

Your drain field or leach field should be 1 to 3 feet under the ground. It will be a little shallower than the septic tank, although it can be the same depth or slightly deeper. The proper depth of the septic tank is up to 4 feet. It’s possible that your local regulatory agency requires a certain depth for your drain field.

A well pressure tank typically lasts between 5 and 15 years. However, its lifespan can be influenced by several factors. High-quality, appropriately sized tanks tend to last longer, with some top-of-the-line models lasting up to 30 years. Regular annual maintenance, including inspections, cleaning, and prompt repairs, is crucial for extending the tank's life. Water quality also plays a significant role; water with high levels of sediment, minerals, or rocks can cause premature wear. Overworking an undersized tank can also limit its lifespan.

To keep roots from growing into a septic tank. However, there are other steps you can take if existing tree roots are getting close to your septic tank. For one, you can install root barriers, which physically block roots from reaching your septic tank. You can also use chemical solutions in your yard or plumbing system to deter root growth.
