"Our landscaping in Menlo Park needed a complete refresh. The team replaced thirsty plants with drought-tolerant options that still provide plenty of color and curb appeal. We're using much less water without sacrificing appearance."

"Mike was called to clear an untimely (let alone super nasty) clog and backup in my home's sewer system around 11:30 PM on a Saturday night. It was a stormy night and he was out quickly to take care of the clearing of the (yuk) debris and digging out of a secondary driveway drain that was filled with other debris left by a construction crew doing some work on my driveway. Mike cleared out the drain area and the overflow area too. 5 stars all the way!!"

We appreciated the professionalism of everyone involved and we couldnâ t be happier with the finished product! We highly recommend this company!"

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

Pump the tank every 3-5 years, avoid flushing non-degradable items, and address leaks promptly to extend system life.

Although air in your water lines won’t affect the overall quality of your water, it will lead to problems with your well water system if not addressed. Over time, too much air in your water lines can create blockages in your pipes, cause insufficient water flow to your taps and appliances, loosen pipes, and potentially damage important components of your well including your well pump and pressure tank. 

To determine the right size for your submersible well pump, find your well depth, water demand, and well casing diameter. The pump should match your well's specifications and meet or exceed your drawdown and pressure requirements. 

For precise sizing, make sure to research the different well pump sizes, consult the manufacturer's recommendations, or seek guidance from a professional well pump installer.

There should be a red button or an on/off switch on or in your box. Press the button or flip the switch, then turn it back on by doing the same action again. If this doesn’t work, reset the breakers inside the box by flipping them off and back on again. After this, your alarm should stay off if there’s nothing wrong with your system. However, if the alarm is still sounding and there’s still a red light on, it’s time to call a pro for a diagnosis.

You should pump your septic tank once every two to four years for a family of four, depending on your septic tank size. You should pump a 1,000-gallon septic tank every two years, while a 1,500-gallon tank should be pumped every four years. Water usage also affects how often you should pump your septic tank. If you notice slow drains, foul smells, or gurgling sounds from your drains, you should pump your septic tank as soon as possible.
