"The service was excellent, done quickly, and cleaned up great. He was very knowledgeable and was to repair more than just the broken lid he put new lids on both tanks and made sure they would last and be easy to pump for years to come. He was also able to put new code back flows on both tanks."

Pumps and Well Service Water Treatment and in-depth trouble shooting. Often Beyond Pumps can solve problems other companies cannot. Beyond Pumps also has emergency generator services. Our team has licensed electricians, a civil engineer, water treatment operators, and years of experience in well work.

"We were having a lot of air in our well system. Causing the water to spit and sputter when we turned on the tap inside. They came out quickly and fixed the problem. It’s been a couple weeks now and it’s been so nice not having to go manually purge the air from our tank! Kind and courteous and highly recommend them. We are having them come back to install a water treatment light into our system next."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

The depth of a septic tank’s drain lines is between 18 and 36 inches underground. These pipes are filled with perforations and surrounded by sand, gravel, or a combination of both, as both materials help filter wastewater. While some pipes are buried closer to the surface, this can create problems unless the soil is compact and doesn’t shift much. 

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.
