"The tank was at that time when for maintenance purposes it needed to be drained. With lockdown and some family returning home, the system was getting more of a workout. I called (Wed) and they were able to set an appointment for me the next time they were in my area (following Mon). I was scheduled for the 2nd stop, but unfortunately, due to an emergency call, I was bumped to the following slot. Upon arrival, the technician was very professional and knowledgeable. He was set up and underway shortly after arriving. The process and clean up were effortless on my part, the technician took care of everything. They have done multiple services for and to my septic system over the years. I highly recommend them."

"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."

"They arrived on time, explained what they were doing, told me that my septic system did not have a screen which would have been an additional cost, suggested that some of the plants be removed (which I've done). The price that I was given on the phone was the price, minus the $10.00 coupon from Angie's List that I paid. Cleaned up after themselves. Would definitely use them again."

"I called the main number and they couldn't provide an estimate, so they gave me the boss' phone number (954-861-9251) and he was super helpful.  I made it clear that I had gotten an estimate from another company and was simply making sure that I wasn't overpaying, and he said that he didn't care if I bought from him since he likes helping people.
Ultimately, he confirmed that paying $1300 to pull out the Titan, change the wiring and circuit breakers and install a new tank was a reasonable estimate.  His estimate was $1050, but he said that I'd have to separately hire an electrician - his guy could probably do the job for $100-$150.
He didn't have anything nice to say about Titan water heaters, and since I had already called them twice this morning I shared his very low opinion (and even some of his profanity).  He validated my decision to put in a tank since there is plenty of space and they generally last longer.
I hope I don't ever need to hire another plumber, but if I do I'm going to call Milan and Son...or West End (who is working in my garage as I write this and will get a separate review in a few hours)

"I couldn’t have been more pleased with the quality of the work and the communication established with this father-son team. They gave me a clear estimate, agreed that I could easily move down from an 80 gallon tank to a 50 gallon tank to save some money, and all the work was performed with the highest level of professionalism. I will definitely use this company again for any and all plumbing needs that I will have in the future."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Talking with a septic pro before planting trees near your tank is best to ensure the roots won’t interfere with your septic system. However, there is an easy way to figure out where to plant a tree—but you’ll need to know how tall it can get when it’s fully grown. For instance, if the tree can reach 50 feet, plant it at least 50 feet from your septic system.

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.

If there’s a problem with your sewage system, you might notice water pooling on the ground around the tank, which could indicate an overflow. Clogged and sluggish drains or foul smells coming from your plumbing are also signs that there might be a blockage in your septic system.

While dry wells can be effective for managing rainwater, they have several disadvantages. They can become clogged with sediment, especially after large storms, which reduces their effectiveness and can be difficult to clean. Dry wells are also not suitable for all soil types; they will not function properly in soil with low permeability. Additionally, if a dry well is not large enough to handle the amount of rainfall in your area, it can overflow. For gravity-flow models, the water may disperse very slowly, depending on the well's depth and the soil's permeability.

While abandoning a tank without treating it and following strict rules is illegal, there are several other ways to dispose of an old septic tank. One standard method is to pump out and crush the tank where it rests and bury it in the soil. Another is to remove it and transport it to a landfill. Finally, if abandonment is the best option, your contractor must pump out the tank and fill it with inert material, such as sand or concrete, depending on local regulations.
