Customers say: Super punctual

"Not knowing the last time the tank was pumped, we hired Crews Septic and they gave us an appointment within a couple of weeks, as it was not an emergency. The only snafu was that their truck broke down the day of the appointment and we told them there was no hurry. Crews contacted us a few days later and rescheduled. They dug out the lids with minimal mess and said that the tank wasn't bad. The tank was pumped and we were advised when the next time needed."

"To start I am from Miami Fl. and usually the services there are really bad most of the times, when I was looking for the septic tank cleaning company in cape coral I start thinking well maybe the services here are the same as miami fl, for my surprise when I did the request for the quote by e-mail in less than 10 minutes they call back to ask me how they can help me, I explain about the cleaning to my septic tank, and at the same time I start thinking well this is going to take awhile for the service, but I was so wrong when they told me in less than an hour the truck will be there for the service, the operator was very professional and educated person, he did the job fast and very clean, awesome company and service. Thank you very much"

"It went perfectly!   The "Big Deal" purchase was a super deal, and Gary the plumber was here on time, was so professional and pleasant, and was done replacing a 1980's toilet in less than an hour!!  Really great job and deal!

"Jason is a busy guy, but was very attentive to problems we had with our well pump and pressure tank. These were replaced as well as installing an under sink reverse osmosis system. Yes, I would recommend Sunrise Plumbing for your plumbing needs."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

The main difference between a mound septic system and a conventional one is that the drain field in a mound system is built up into a mound composed of sand and gravel to increase the filtration time the wastewater sees before it is returned to the aquifer. There’s also a significant cost difference, with mound systems typically costing far more than standard septic systems.

The size of your septic tank plays a role in determining the proper size of the drain or leach field. As a general rule, you should have 1 square foot of drain field size per gallon of septic tank capacity. However, you could install a leach field that’s as much as 2.5 square feet per gallon of septic tank capacity. Most professionals determine the right septic tank size and drain field size by the number of bedrooms in the house. A three-bedroom house needs a minimum 1,000-gallon septic tank, for example.

DIY is not recommended due to safety and technical requirements. Hire professionals for accurate diagnosis and repair.

A properly installed and maintained septic drain field (also known as a leach field) can last up to 50 years, though the average is around 20 years. However, factors like poor soil conditions, heavy usage, or improper maintenance can significantly shorten its lifespan to 15-20 years.

To extend the life of your drain field:

  • Schedule Regular Inspections: Have the entire septic system, including the drain field, inspected every two to five years to catch problems early.

  • Protect the Area: Avoid driving heavy vehicles or placing heavy structures over the drain field. Plant only grass or other lightweight vegetation with shallow roots over the area.

  • Maintain the Septic Tank: Proper care of the septic tank, including regular pumping and avoiding harmful chemicals, prevents strain on the drain field.

Be aware of signs of failure, such as strange odors, standing water, or unusually lush grass over the field, which indicate your system may need professional attention.

Most home wells start at 100 feet, and many go as deep as 200 or 300 feet

It takes quite a lot of water to meet the demands of showers, toilets, faucets, and appliances like dishwashers and laundry machines, and shallow wells struggle to provide this amount quickly. If you anticipate having high water usage in the future, it’s often better to drill slightly deeper and give yourself a bit more water storage than you need.
