"My wife and I have worked with Hastings Construction for over 20 years. Justin has completed work, both on simple and complicated projects, including new construction, remodels and repairs, both for us and for many of our clients. On each of those projects he and his team have exhibited a high level of experience, expertise and professionalism. Theyâ re also all very nice people; itâ s a pleasure working with them and having them in our home. Justin is an excellent communicator, and is always available to his clients when challenges arise during the completion of a project; he always returns phone calls/texts within a few hours, and most often does so â immediatelyâ . One recent example to show how Justin goes â above and beyondâ to ensure his clientsâ satisfaction: Justinâ s team installed a Generac generator at our home in October 2022. The unit worked as expected during the early part of the storms/floods we on the Monterey Peninsula experienced in January 2023, but then failed. It simply would not start, or generate electricity as designed. Once it failed, we made immediate contact with the Generac customer service department, which proved both immediately and over the next three months to be entirely unresponsive and untrustworthy. Their goal from the very beginning was to deny responsibility for the failure, which they ultimately did. We made dozens of phone calls to the customer service department and left dozens of voice mail messages, as did Justinâ s project manager (initially) and Justin (once we had utterly failed to get any meaningful response from Generac). During that same time period, we experienced more than a dozen PG&E power outages at our home, and were â left in the darkâ , without a functioning generator, during all those outages. Finally, in mid-March 2023, after more than three months of us living with a brand new but failed generator, Justin made the â high roadâ decision to purchase a new generator and deliver/install it at our house, all at his cost and at no cost to us. He hauled away the failed generator, and we understand he plans to continue to attempt to urge Generac to stand behind its product. We have on many occasions in the past recommended Hastings Construction to friends and clients, and obviously will continue to do so in the future. They are a first-class, reliable business."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

You may want to increase the size of your leach field, for instance, if you add on to your home or install more bathrooms in your house. You can make your leach field larger by installing more pipes or expanding the area of the field itself. Improving the soil quality in the drain field can also make it more effective without increasing the area.

Yes, it is possible to pump a septic tank too frequently. The ideal pumping schedule varies based on the tank's capacity, household size, and water usage. Pumping the septic tank more often than recommended can cause the beneficial bacteria to leach into the drain field, leading to an imbalance and a build-up of solid waste.

Good news: You’ll naturally increase the bacteria in your septic tank simply by using it. If you want to encourage more good bacteria growth, stop using products and household cleaners that kill bacteria, such as bleach and harsh chemicals. Never flush antibiotics, and make sure only water and waste go down the tube—not paper products, feminine hygiene products, or diapers.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

Schedule annual inspections, monitor water pressure, and address minor issues promptly to avoid major repairs.
