Customers say: Quick response

"Dan was awesome! Not only was his estimate reasonable, it was almost $3000.00 lower than the highest bid that we got. He communicated with us before, during and after the installation. He was on time, was careful around existing planters and pathways. This job was not an easy one. The old septic was 60 years old and tucked right up against the house. It required a 26' trench that had to be dug by hand as no piece of equipment would fit. At the end of the job, he moved two tree stumps for us and regraded the dirt road, just because the tractor was already here. Service above and beyond! We would highly recommend him!"

"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."

"I called on a Saturday morning when no other company was answering calls. They picked up and said they would be here Monday morning. They were very professional yet also let me watch and learn how to take care of my tank. I also had a clogged line and they "jetted" it and I was instantly up and running. I learned so much, I don't think I will ever need emergency service again. I will call them back in 3 or 4 years so I won't stress my system and incur more problems!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

There are a variety of different types of septic systems that can work in your home—such as conventional anaerobic systems, chamber systems, drip distribution systems and mound septic systems. All of them work using natural processes to break down solid waste and effectively treat wastewater without needing to be connected to a city sewer system. Which type of septic system you need will depend on characteristics of your property like how high the bedrock is or groundwater table is. Different types of systems come at different costs to install.

The best times of year to pump or empty a septic tank are spring and fall. Many professionals recommend spring because the ground has thawed, making the tank easier to access, and any snowmelt or rainfall can aid in proper drainage. Pumping before summer is also ideal to avoid conflicts with vacations or outdoor gatherings.

Fall is another great option, as contractors may be less busy than in the spring. Servicing the tank in late fall or early spring can also reduce the risk of overflow from extra precipitation during winter and spring.

While summer is a possibility, winter is generally not recommended. The ground is often frozen, which can make it difficult to access the tank, and the waste inside may also be frozen.

Yes. Amongst the four most common types of septic tanks—plastic, fiberglass, concrete, and steel—those made of concrete are the most expensive. This is the case for a few reasons, including the fact that they’re very heavy, so pros have to use specialized equipment to install them. However, they’re also incredibly durable, making the price worth it if it’s in your budget.

For the most part, choosing between 30/50 psi and 40/60 psi is based on your water-pressure preference. However, it can also depend a little bit on your house—if you have older plumbing, a lower water pressure can be easier on the pipes (and a bit more gentle on your well pump). 

The lower 30/50 pressure is usually enough for a single-story home, but you may want 40/60 if you have multiple stories, as the extra pressure helps water flow smoothly up to the second floor.

A gurgling toilet usually doesn’t mean that your septic tank is full. If waste can’t drain into a full septic tank, you’ll see water and sewage backing up into your fixtures, but the air that causes gurgling is a result of poor venting. You are more likely to have a clog in your vent stack or a damaged air admittance valve.
