"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

You may want to increase the size of your leach field, for instance, if you add on to your home or install more bathrooms in your house. You can make your leach field larger by installing more pipes or expanding the area of the field itself. Improving the soil quality in the drain field can also make it more effective without increasing the area.

The size of your septic tank plays a role in determining the proper size of the drain or leach field. As a general rule, you should have 1 square foot of drain field size per gallon of septic tank capacity. However, you could install a leach field that’s as much as 2.5 square feet per gallon of septic tank capacity. Most professionals determine the right septic tank size and drain field size by the number of bedrooms in the house. A three-bedroom house needs a minimum 1,000-gallon septic tank, for example.

Leach lines are commonly made of PVC pipe, and they’re placed into trenches filled with gravel and sand, which help treat the wastewater. The PVC pipes are perforated, or drilled with small holes, so the wastewater can drain out of the pipes and into the surrounding material, which eventually leads to the aquifer.

Since vinegar is a weak acid with a pH of two to three, it’s generally safe for septic systems. It won’t eat away at the good bacteria in your septic tank and can help break down the sludge, which is its bottom layer. However, like with everything in life, moderation is key.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.
