"Murphy's Plumbing replaced a portion of our sewer line. Jeff presented us with a cost efficient and minimally invasive solution, involving running our line above ground and under our oil tank. He assured us this is "not a big deal". Other plumbers were more alarmist recommending tearing up a lot of our concrete floor or even draining and removing our oil tank to run the line under ground. Steve and crew were extremely efficient and clean, completing the work exactly as expected and on time. Listening to the crew work in the basement, I could tell they are very concerned with doing quality work and have a lot of pride for their trade. Sewer issues are miserable, but Murphy's presented a level-headed and simple solution and took the stress our of the problem. I hope we never need a plumber again, but the reality is we will be hiring them again!"

"They responded immediately and fixed the problem. While there we had them address a few other issues and they fixed them immediately and did not take advantage of us. We also had them come out in March 2013 because we were told that we needed a new well expansion tank by another company. They were honest and showed us that we did not need another tank. The tank was working fine. I would recomend these guys. They are good.

"The technician emptied the freezer, which was in the basement, to work on the part that needed repair. Then he neglected to put anything back into the freezer, including a turkey I had bought for Christmas and a rack of ribs. Two days after he left, I went out of town for two weeks. The turkey actually exploded and spewed its liquid all over everything, which had to be discarded. I let AHS know and they couldn't even bother to call me or follow up on this. I'm considering not renewing my contract with them because of the quality (or lack thereof) of many of the providers they send."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Newark residents are increasingly choosing septic tank service upgrades like smart monitoring systems, risers for easy access, and nitrogen-reducing technologies. Concrete tanks remain a top choice for durability, while gravity-fed systems suit local soil conditions. Many homeowners are also integrating native plant landscaping and decorative access covers to blend functionality with curb appeal and support environmentally friendly yard designs.

Helpful?

In Newark, combining septic tank service with projects like driveway repairs, irrigation system installation, or landscaping can minimize disruption and reduce labor costs. Coordinating excavation work for multiple projects streamlines scheduling and may simplify permit requirements. If you’re preparing to sell your home, bundling septic inspections with well water testing can also reassure buyers and help your property stand out.

Helpful?

In Newark, most septic tank service projects like pumping or routine inspections are completed within 2–4 hours, depending on tank size and access. Minor repairs typically wrap up the same day, while full system replacements can take 3–7 days. Weather, soil conditions, and permit processing may extend timelines, so scheduling during drier months and confirming contractor availability can help avoid unexpected delays.

Helpful?

Completing septic tank service in Newark offers immediate benefits like preventing sewage backups and protecting your family’s health. Over time, regular maintenance extends your system’s lifespan, safeguards property value, and helps avoid costly emergency repairs. Well-maintained systems also support local environmental goals, reduce the risk of groundwater contamination, and make your home more attractive to future buyers seeking eco-friendly features.

Helpful?

Newark homeowners should watch for warning signs such as slow drains, sewage odors, gurgling pipes, or soggy ground near the drain field. If you notice lush grass patches over your tank or experience plumbing backups, it’s time to schedule septic tank service. Regular pumping every 3–5 years and annual inspections are also smart, especially after heavy rainfall or increased household water use.
