"Three years later we're still dealing with the fallout from Garrity's shoddy work. We hired them to install a pump and sensor system to supply water from a new dug well. They consistently cut corners and over-charged us. We have had to hire another company to fix the issues they created (for instance, the pump controller shorted for the second time last week, and each replacement has cost > $1,500)."

"I would not recommend. I am a real estate agent and contracted this company to install a radon mitigation system in a home prior to closing based on a high radon level test during inspection. I met the company rep at the property and he quoted a system later that day after inspecting the home. The system was installed two weeks later and a retest came back more than double the level of the initial test. This company claims they have a warranty to cover any system modification to get the levels below 2.0. The company sent a crew back out twice and yesterday said the slab is too thick for the system they installed, the hole the installers drilled is too narrow and the home is in a flood zone. We knew the home was in a flood zone, but this company never asked about that and did not do any due diligence prior to installation. They are refusing to honor their warranty and are now quoting a different system that is much more costly. Can?t recommend."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

A submersible pump should be at least 10 feet from the bottom of the well to minimize the risk of the pump drawing debris into the well water. Submersible pumps work best for wells that are 25 feet deep or less. If you have a deeper well, choose a jet pump instead of a submersible model.

A septic perc test is done by drilling a hole into the ground, filling the hole with water, and testing to see how long it drains. While simple, the test itself provides a great deal of information about your yard. The last thing you want to do is skip a perc test only to discover your yard doesn’t drain sewage effectively.

The size of your water well pressure tank is limited only by your budget and the amount of space you have to use. Larger tanks can hold more water, meaning your well pump will need to cycle less often. This can extend the life of both the pressure tank and your well pump. Larger tanks cost more and take up more room, though.

Septic tank risers are indeed a wise choice for homeowners. They provide easy access to your septic tank, streamlining maintenance and inspection processes while potentially saving you money in the long term on multiple excavation jobs. With risers in place, you can proactively address septic issues before they escalate into costly problems, ensuring the longevity of your system. Moreover, compliance with local regulations that require risers can prevent fines or penalties, making them a valuable addition to any septic system.

Septic tanks naturally have bacteria that break down some of the solid waste in the septic tank. However, sludge buildup is just part of owning a septic system. While liquid wastewater can be filtered and treated through the system, a septic tank company has to pump the septic tank out at least every few years.
