"Live Action Engineering Inc. did an outstanding job installing our septic system on our off-grid property in Sutter Creek. Professional, hardworking, and incredibly knowledgeable. They worked smoothly with the county, communicated clearly, and made sure everything was done right the first time. It’s obvious why they’re so well known and highly recommended in Amador County. We’re beyond grateful for their integrity and quality work."

"Septic Pumping and Drain Solutions pumped our septic tank and we have made arrangements for them to do some repairs in the next two weeks. They were in time, very professional with state of the art equipment. When talking about the repairs, they explained everything and have given us a very good price. They have been the best we've ever worked with and we will continue to use them now and in the future."

"Hunter the plumber was timely and kept me informed. He was efficient, knew his job well. Excellent at caulking. I had asked for a quote before Hunter came to the house. The dispatcher was unable to do so. Said the technician has that information. When Hunter showed up for the job, he gave me a quote that knocked me over. Surprises like that waste time and money. That is why I gave a lower rating for customer service."

"Outstanding Service and Professionalism! I had the pleasure of working with Shaffy yesterday, and I couldn't be more impressed. He arrived on time, was incredibly courteous, and diagnosed the issue quickly. The repair was done efficiently, with zero mess left behind. They took the time to explain everything and even gave some helpful maintenance tips to avoid future problems. It's rare to find someone this reliable and knowledgeable these days. Highly recommended for anyone in need of top-notch plumbing work!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

There are three layers of wastewater in a septic tank: scum (solid waste that floats to the top of the wastewater), liquid (the relatively clean liquid wastewater in between the two other layers), and sludge (solid waste that falls to the bottom of the wastewater). The buildup of sludge is one of the main reasons septic tanks need to be pumped. If the tank is more than 1/3 of the way full with a combination of sludge and scum, it’s time to call a pro for pumping.

Yes, it is possible to drill a well by hand, but it calls for a good deal of physical labor. Drilling a well by hand is best suited for softer soil, and it may not be possible through rockier terrain. For wider and deeper holes, companies with professional equipment make the job much easier.

While a traditional septic tank requires a leach field for wastewater disposal, it is possible to have a septic system without one. Some alternative systems, which are often used when there isn't enough space for a full-size leach field, include mound systems or sand filtration systems. In a conventional setup, the leach field is essential because it's where the wastewater goes after leaving the tank.

A cistern works by collecting rainwater from your gutters and downspouts and storing it in a holding tank. The holding tank can be installed above or below ground, and the size will depend on your household needs. The stored water can then be used for household tasks, watering your garden, and even for drinking water.

You only need to pump the septic tank. The leach field allows the liquid and waste to naturally seep into the ground, so there’s no need to pump the leach field. You should call a local septic tank pumping service to remove the materials from the tank every three to five years. Without pumping the septic tank occasionally, solids could flow into the leach field pipes and clog them.
