"This review of Mark Ruppert and his team is submitted by two very happy homeowners. 
We came to our home in the fall of 2011.  We "inherited" the former owner's lawn service.  Over several years, we became dissatisfied with that service and reviewed recommendations on Angie's List in hopes of finding a new lawn care service provider.  Our Angie's List search brought us, serendipitously, to Mark Ruppert. 
We walked the property with Mark in late September 2013.  We were impressed with Mark's demeanor, level of expertise, and common sense approach to what we viewed as "problem" areas on the property.  Given this very favorable first interview, and after considering options, we decided to hire Mark Ruppert's service.  My husband and I have been thanking our lucky stars ever since! 
Very shortly after we hired Mark, we needed a patio built in our back yard to support a hot tub.  We asked Mark for a proposal.  The schematic that Mark presented for review was inventive, aesthetically lovely, and beautifully detailed.  We accepted the proposal and went forward with the project with Mark at the helm. 
A pre-existing drainage system was discovered during excavation.  Changes to the original plan were needed.  Mark came up with an equally attractive, new outline for the patio to accommodate the older, pre-existent drainage system.  Mark then engineered an elegant solution that addressed the overall poor drainage in our back yard area.  
Mark's communication skills (via phone or email) were always first rate.  We were never left wondering what was going on or what was going to happen next. 
Mark and his crew consistently produced a level of quality work that was exemplary in every respect.  From inception in mid-October 2013 to completion of the project in 2014, we have been immeasurably enthusiastic about everything that Mark Ruppert and his superior crew have done to enhance the beauty of our property. 
In summation, Mark Ruppert and his team bring with them to the jobsite an admirable work ethic, impressive creativity, commitment to please, a well-honed sense for detail, and exceptionally high quality work.  My husband and I are delighted to know that Mark Ruppert and his employees are now servicing our "outside space."  Mark Ruppert has developed a stellar organization and we are looking forward to enjoying Mark's superb services for years to come.  We are absolutely thrilled to have found him.  Thank you, Mark, and
thank you, Angie!

Aquarium Services FAQs, answered by experts

You should never pour antifreeze down the drain or outside on the ground. Because it's highly toxic, antifreeze can still impact people and animals long after it drains. Antifreeze can contaminate water and sewage systems, and any that gets into storm drains and water supplies can attract animals and harm those that ingest it.

Baking soda can help neutralize septic tank odors. If the pH balance in your tank is off, it may emit a sulfurous, rotten-egg-like smell. Flushing about one cup of baking soda down the toilet once a week can help neutralize the odor. To increase the beneficial bacteria in your tank, you can add three rotten tomatoes through your garbage disposal every three months.

To prevent odors in the first place, only flush human waste and toilet paper. Avoid pouring coffee grounds, fats, oils, or grease down your drains, as this can lead to clogs. While these methods can help, the most effective long-term solution is to have your septic tank pumped regularly, typically every three to five years. Because sewage gas can be toxic, it is recommended to hire a professional to identify the source of the smell rather than only trying to neutralize it.

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.

Several things can ruin a septic tank over time, including dumping harsh chemicals (like bleach and ammonia), pesticides, and paint thinners down your drain because they can kill the bacteria in your septic tank. You should also make sure to only flush waste and toilet paper in your toilet—otherwise, you could clog your system.

There are a few signs that you might notice if your drain field is bad. For starters, if you see standing water or soggy grass above your drain field, it could mean that it isn’t working correctly. Or, if your yard smells like sewage, it could also indicate that there’s a problem with your drain field. Repairing a drain field costs an average of $2,000 to $15,000.
