"Danny did an outstanding job on replacing our septic system. We weren’t looking forward to having it done, however Danny made this process very easy for us. Danny did flawless work and had it done a lot sooner than we expected. He took the time to explain the process of replacing the septic system, answered all our questions and addressed any concerns we had. Danny not only does tremendous work, but he is an honest and good guy. I would recommend him for sure if you need to hire a contractor for some work."

"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!"

"We contracted Mainline Engineering Construction to replace our end-of-life sewer line from end-to-end. At every step of the project there was communication about project plans, from permits, to repairs, to final inspections. Mainline's attention to detail and methodical care during the construction phase, including unplanned work, ensured there was no damage to surrounding utilities. We also noted the positive relationships Mainline staff and technicians have with the various government agencies and inspectors during the construction and inspection phases. A positive attitude and mutual respect ensured our project went smoothly and for which there is intrinsic value to any project - invaluable. Fair price. Outstanding project planning and execution. Highly recommend their services."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

All municipalities in the U.S. require a permit for septic tank installation or septic system alteration, and the permit will usually cost between $450 and $2,500. Some municipalities also require permits for septic system repair. You’ll either need to contact your local building department or your septic tank company to ask if this is necessary before carrying out the work. Permits are not typically required to have your septic tank pumped, so provided your septic company is licensed, you can move forward with the work as needed.

While homeowners connected to a municipal sewer line still have to keep up with plumbing maintenance, the downside to a septic system is that all the maintenance falls on the homeowners. Not calling in a pro to pump the tank every few years or accidentally flushing or draining the wrong types of materials can quickly cause clogs, which can back up into drains around the home.

When a septic tank is full, it needs to be professionally pumped. The average cost of a one-time septic tank pump is about $400, or $0.30 per gallon. If your septic tank is full, you may notice that you have issues flushing your toilet, pipes are draining very slowly, or you have a sewage smell lingering in your home or yard.

Some of the signs that could mean your water is contaminated, such as cloudiness or bubbliness, could also be non-problems that don’t affect your water’s potability. However, if your water smells or tastes strange, it’s a good idea to stop drinking it and test it immediately. If your well water is contaminated, the best way to discover that is to test it.

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.
