"I hired them because they said they could pump my septic AND snake my drain. They did pump my tank very nicely, they were available when I needed them, and they were able to identify a problem immediately. However, what they meant by snaking the drain is that they could send another person out for an additional fee to snake the drain. I was also only quoted for the pumping and not the snaking so I ended up paying double what I thought I was going to pay. I also found out AFTER the first payment/job that they had a military discount so that was a little disappointing, but I am very grateful that it was applied to the second payment/job."

"I am only giving them 5 stars because this rating will not allow 10 stars. Wayne and his crew installed a new septic system in our new Warwick, RI home. Everyone was extremely professional and courteous. They answered questions along the way as they worked through the complicated permit process. All of the crew were super personable and responsive. They also helped me move dirt on a landscape project I was working on while they had the heavy equipment. Saved me a lot of shoveling."

"Paul was very knowledgeable about what needed to be done to replace my whole Septic System. The installation that was completed was amazing and flawless. Paul worked with the town to get the system in and approved. Paul answered every question in a timely matter. I did not have to worry about anything regarding this big project. I recommend Paul 200% and would share his information with all my family and friends. Paul is a master at his work and is priceless in this industry. You will not feel like a number or inconvenience with Paul. Give him a call and let your worries be out to rest with his work."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

The dimensions of a 500-gallon concrete septic tank can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but the tank is large enough to handle the wastewater of a small home with up to one bedroom. Keep in mind that some states have a minimum septic tank size, and this often starts at 750 gallons. A 500-gallon septic tank may be too small to meet local regulations.

If your leach field becomes clogged or saturated, it can cause several problems with your home's septic system. The clog can cause sewage to back up into your home, leading to unpleasant odors and mess. A backed-up septic system can be a health hazard, particularly if the sewage starts to leach into the ground surrounding the leach field.

There are several ways to fix a saturated drain field, including cleaning out your septic tank, adding enzymes and additives to your drain system, and installing a larger septic system.

Bladder and diaphragm well pressure tanks are usually pre-charged at the factory. Even so, it’s important to check the air pressure in the tank using a tire pressure gauge on the relief valve. The instruction manual usually calls for 28 psi. Use a hand pump to add more air or release some air from the tank to reach the desired number. Check the pressure periodically to see if you need to add more air to the tank.

A septic tank with a 1,500-gallon capacity is good for larger homes with up to 6 or 7 bedrooms. The average home can go with a smaller tank, about 1,000 gallons, which supports a home size of up to 2,500 square feet, or a home with about three bedrooms.

Most septic tanks can handle two to three loads of laundry per day, or a weekly total of between seven and 10 loads. Although septic systems do require homeowners to be somewhat careful with their plumbing systems—for instance, it’s not a good idea to flush a bunch of toilet paper all at once—they can still handle fairly heavy use.
