"My elderly mother had a blocked drain line, and she hired a different rooter service to fix it. The contractor said her septic tank needed to be pumped out - after pumping, he said the septic tank was cracked needed to be replaced at a cost of $38,000!! He then proceeded to dig up the back yard. As soon as I learned about this, I fired the contractor and contacted Martin - he came to the house in a couple of hours and inspected the tank and system. There was nothing wrong with the tank - he repaired some broken lines, replaced a line, got the tank back on line and backfilled the yard for $2500. Very nice to work with a pro and I would definitely recommend him."

"I just pay $75 you never know who's going to come out. They do everything electrical. Just about everything is covered except the septic tank. I had an air conditioner replaced. It went great, all I had to do was pay for the freon. He didn't charge e more than what was needed."

"I recently hired VMG Plumbing to complete several repairs at my home, and I could not be more impressed with the experience. From the very beginning, Bineto demonstrated exceptional professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail. He not only addressed the issues I was aware of, but also identified several defects left behind by the builder and took the time to explain practical solutions to improve the overall plumbing system in my home. I decided to move forward with all of his recommendations, and I am extremely glad I did. The quality of the workmanship was outstanding, and everything was completed with care, precision, and professionalism. It is clear that Bineto takes great pride in his work and genuinely cares about his customers. If you are looking for an honest, knowledgeable, and highly skilled plumber, I wholeheartedly recommend VMG Plumbing. I would not hesitate to use their services again and will gladly refer them to my friends, family, and anyone in need of top-qu"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

It is not normal to smell your septic outside and indicates a problem such as an unsealed manhole or access lid, a clogged septic line, a faulty vent stack, or the need for a septic tank pumping. If sewage is leaking from your septic system, it can be hazardous to you, your family, pets, and the surrounding environment. You can troubleshoot the issue yourself, or contact a septic tank pro who can resolve the issue quickly.

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.

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.

A septic system's lifespan typically ranges from 15 to 40 years, with a common average of 20 to 30 years. The longevity heavily depends on the tank's material, maintenance diligence, and usage habits. With proper care, lifespans can reach the upper end of this range.

Lifespan by Tank Material:

  • Concrete: 20 to 40 years

  • Plastic or Fiberglass: 30 to 40 years

  • Steel: 15 to 20 years

To maximize your system's lifespan, follow these maintenance best practices:

  • Regular Pumping and Inspections: Have the tank pumped every three to five years and schedule professional inspections regularly.

  • Mindful Usage: Only flush human waste and toilet paper. Avoid putting items like cat litter, paper towels, cigarette butts, fats, grease, oils, or coffee grounds down your drains.

  • Avoid Chemicals: Do not pour harsh chemicals into the system.

  • Water Conservation: Reduce the amount of wastewater your system has to process.

  • Protect the Drain Field: Avoid driving or building heavy structures over the drain field area.

When considering the price of drilling a well, factor in how much you’ll save in water costs per year. The average family of four uses 100 gallons of water per person per day in the U.S. With a private water well, you can save hundreds each year.

Wells are also environmentally friendly. You don’t need to worry about drinking water treated with chemicals. Talk to at least three well pump contractors in your area. They’ll be able to tell you more about your options, give you different quotes, and discuss the biggest concerns.
