"Needed an urgent septic tank pump. My last pump was 9 years ago (I know should have done it sooner). Checked Home Advisor and they offered Raider Rooter. Reviews were good, so I gave them a shot. Very happy I did. Price was lower than what I paid 9 years ago. Jessica was prompt in contacting me and very nice. They came the next day and were here when promised. Very professional and quick. And they didn’t BS me on anything. Super happy with guys that came who were very nice. They ticked all the boxes for me and will use them again in four years."

"Mike contacted me right away and came out to troubleshoot my problem on the same day. I was very impressed with his knowledge of over 30 years experience. My tank had some cracks in it and other problems that he professionally repaired, pumped out the tank plus cleaned up my yard afterwards. I was very satisfied with this company's good service and fair price. I would definitely hire them again and highly recommend them. I'd give them 10 stars if I could!"

"I highly recommend this plumbing company! They did an excellent job in my home — very professional, punctual, and respectful. The technician explained everything clearly, fixed the problem quickly, and left the area clean. Their prices were fair, and the quality of work was outstanding. I will definitely use their services again and recommend them to anyone who needs reliable plumbing work. Thank you for such great service! ⭐️🔧💧"

"Barrett's Plumbing saved me a ton of headaches and money. Every 2-3 weeks I used to have to call someone to pump or clear my drain, ranging anywhere from $250-$300. Barrett's Plumbing was the only one to actually realize that I needed a whole new septic tank. Finally I no longer have to worry about any backups or flooding in my house."

"I called A Alligator frantically looking for a company to pump my tank (1 pm).  They were able to get me on the schedule for the early evening (they didnt even give me attitude when I kept calling back - patience is a virtue!)
Brandon came with the vac truck, located my septic tank (I didn't know exact location) popped the lid, discovered that it wasn't full but actually could use some repair.  He then cleaned out a blockage in our plumbing line which fixed the issue we were dealing with.  A quote was provided for additional work to get out tank up and running as it should be.  
they really helped me out and the service was comprehensive and the folks were friendly.

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

All municipalities in the U.S. require a permit for septic tank installation or septic system alteration, and the permit will usually cost between $450 and $2,500. Some municipalities also require permits for septic system repair. You’ll either need to contact your local building department or your septic tank company to ask if this is necessary before carrying out the work. Permits are not typically required to have your septic tank pumped, so provided your septic company is licensed, you can move forward with the work as needed.

Depending on local conditions, a deep well may be a better choice than a shallow well. Deeper well depth accesses groundwater that has been naturally filtered through many layers of soil and rock. This reduces surface contaminants and may offer cleaner water, but deep wells cost more money to build and maintain. The water may be harder and have higher radioactivity, too. 

Yes, a septic tank can get full. If this happens, you might run into issues flushing your toilets or draining your sinks. You may also notice your pipes making gurgling noises or the smell of sewage floating around your house. Other signs of a backed-up septic tank include water pooling or fresh, healthy grass growing above your drain field.

A septic tank riser should extend to just above the ground level or slightly above it. The exact height can vary depending on local regulations and personal preferences, but a common guideline is to have the riser's top flush with or no more than a few inches above the surrounding ground. This height allows for easy access to the septic tank without creating a tripping hazard or obstructing mowing and landscaping activities. It's essential to ensure that the riser lid is easily visible and accessible for regular maintenance and inspection while being mindful of safety and aesthetics.

A gurgling toilet usually doesn’t mean that your septic tank is full. If waste can’t drain into a full septic tank, you’ll see water and sewage backing up into your fixtures, but the air that causes gurgling is a result of poor venting. You are more likely to have a clog in your vent stack or a damaged air admittance valve.
