"Brian's service was top notch from the office staff to the technicians who worked on our septic tanks (2 on property). One tank needed to be located. These guys were prompt, courteous, skilled, and very fast. The price was less than we expected. We look forward to their helping us with future maintenance."

"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,"

"I had a great experience with Wilcox Septic Solutions and would gladly give them 5 stars. Mr. Melvin was incredibly professional and attentive right from the beginning. He took the time to personally walk the property with me, ensuring that every detail was covered before starting the project. Despite weather-related delays, which he promptly communicated about, I appreciated his understanding and flexibility. When the work finally commenced, I was thoroughly impressed. The lawn leveling and grading works like a charm, as evidenced by how well my yard handled its first heavy rain. It's clear that Wilcox Septic Solutions delivers high-quality workmanship. Based on my experience, I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone needing leveling and grading services and would not hesitate to hire them again for future projects."

"I just pay $75 you never know who's going to come out. They do everything electrical. Just about everything is covered except the septic tank. I had an air conditioner replaced. It went great, all I had to do was pay for the freon. He didn't charge e more than what was needed."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

Watch for slow drainage, pooling water in the yard, or unpleasant odors inside or outside. Addressing these issues timely avoids significant disruptions or costs.

The septic installation company must follow several steps to put in a new septic system and leach field. The installer will study your property and determine the best place for the tank and leach field. The site should be away from existing structures, be free of trees, and have proper drainage and grading. Preparing the site for the tank and leach field will require significant excavation work.

A well pressure tank typically lasts between 5 and 15 years. However, its lifespan can be influenced by several factors. High-quality, appropriately sized tanks tend to last longer, with some top-of-the-line models lasting up to 30 years. Regular annual maintenance, including inspections, cleaning, and prompt repairs, is crucial for extending the tank's life. Water quality also plays a significant role; water with high levels of sediment, minerals, or rocks can cause premature wear. Overworking an undersized tank can also limit its lifespan.

Septic drain fields should be at least 10 feet from the property line, though exact requirements vary by location. Some areas may require further distances, such as 25 feet or more, depending on soil conditions and local health regulations. This extension ensures proper wastewater absorption and prevents contamination of neighboring homes.
