"He was honest about what I needed done, the other companies I called said I need the drain field replaced, without even coming out and looking. So I was scared that we would not get someone who would check to see what the problem was first. Mr Jessie came by and told me that it was a blockage with in 8 foot of the septic, and he would be back in the morning with his helper. They were back first thing Saturday morning and had it unblocked and covered up within 2 hours, and yes it was within 8 foot of the septic. I really was glad that we got someone that cared to check it first instead of just quoting a price for the most expensive thing without looking,"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

A cistern works by collecting rainwater from your gutters and downspouts and storing it in a holding tank. The holding tank can be installed above or below ground, and the size will depend on your household needs. The stored water can then be used for household tasks, watering your garden, and even for drinking water.

Schedule annual inspections, test water pressure, and protect the pump from freezing temperatures.

Perc rates vary dramatically, and a good perc rate could be anything from 5 minutes per inch of drainage to 60 minutes per inch. The lower the number, the faster your system will drain and the more effective it will be. A 60-minute-per-inch drain rate is the highest number considered to be good, or even allowable, draining.

You only need to pump the septic tank. The leach field allows the liquid and waste to naturally seep into the ground, so there’s no need to pump the leach field. You should call a local septic tank pumping service to remove the materials from the tank every three to five years. Without pumping the septic tank occasionally, solids could flow into the leach field pipes and clog them.

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.
