"The job was done quickly. The plumber installed a new garbage disposal, fixed the sink faucet issue another plumber said was unfixable, and repaired a toilet. He was polite, efficient and cleaned up after himself thoroughly."

"The 50 year old septic system for our home was breaking down. Not just the tank itself, but the leach lines were crumbling. Drain Masters completely overhauled the system and despite the expense we are very satisfied."

"They came out and gave us a free estimate to clean out and re-line our main sewer line. They ran into some problems trying to insert the liner due to the angle of the access pipe.  It ended up being a lot of extra work for them - however, they stood by their original estimate. They were very professional and left the job site clean.

"They had to come out 4 times. The first water heater started leaking after 6 months. It was replaced. The second water heater also started leaking after 6 months. I contacted the manufacturer and they recommended a thermal expansion tank be installed. It was not installed the first or second time the water heaters were installed. I did have to pay a re installation fee. I picked up the 3rd water heater myself and they gave me natural gas water heater instead of propane. The fourth attempt they finally got it right and so far the water heater has worked after 7 months. The guy was very responsive as far as my calls and issues. He came out whenever I needed. Unfortunately, the entire experience was just a train wreck."

"I called and setup an appointment for the afternoon.  The dispatcher called back in an hour saying the plumber was free earlier and came immediately.  He was there within an hour and gave me an estimate for the replacement and upgrade that I wanted.  I agreed to the price and within 3 hours I had a new water heater.  I can?t imagine where they could have done any better.

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

There are many reasons you may want to extend the depth of an existing well or drill a new, deeper well on your property. A deeper well can tap cleaner water sources—shallow water may contain more contaminants. With a deeper well, you’ll also have an easier time reaching the water table depth (the level at which underground water is found) and can get past tricky soil conditions. 

Plus, if your local building code requires a minimum well depth for safety and environmental standards, you’ll meet the code by digging a deeper well in the first place.

While not strictly necessary for your septic system to operate, septic tank risers are a highly beneficial and wise choice for homeowners. They provide easy access to your tank, which makes regular maintenance, inspections, and addressing issues significantly easier and less labor-intensive. By eliminating the need for repeated excavation to locate the tank, risers can save you money, labor, and energy in the long run. This easy access allows you to proactively manage your septic system, addressing potential problems before they become costly and ensuring the system's longevity. Additionally, some local regulations may require risers, and installing them can help you avoid potential fines or penalties.

Costs depend on tank accessibility, size, and local rates. Regular service serves as preventive care, averting costly emergency repairs or system replacements.

While abandoning a tank without treating it and following strict rules is illegal, there are several other ways to dispose of an old septic tank. One standard method is to pump out and crush the tank where it rests and bury it in the soil. Another is to remove it and transport it to a landfill. Finally, if abandonment is the best option, your contractor must pump out the tank and fill it with inert material, such as sand or concrete, depending on local regulations.

A septic system inspection costs $100 to $200. Doing so can spot issues early so you can plan for necessary repairs ahead of time and save yourself the issue of a backed-up septic tank. Some septic tank repair professionals do an inspection as part of their yearly maintenance on your septic tank if you choose to pay for that service, but you should shoot to have a septic system inspection completed at least once every two to five years.
