"Called yesterday to set up appointment for an estimate on a couple things I needed done. One was to put a water shut off valve somewhere that I didn't need to crawl under the house. The other I needed my toilet fixed. Brent H came out yesterday, gave me an estimate and installed a water shutoff valve and fixed my toilet. Brent was very professional and so fast I was amazed he finished so quickly. Perfect plumbing and heating is amazing and so is Brent!"

"The guys who work with Idaho Septic are top notch. I initially got my 47 year old tank pumped. The pump truck operator is a part owner of the overall company. He and his youngest son were running the truck. They had to go down over three feet to get to the lid. After the pumpoup, he showed me where a large boulder had pushed up through the center of the floor of the tank. Pretty obvious it was a LARGE rock. He let me know his sons ran the overall company and told me about the next steps. I got in touch with them and they felt it would be a complete drain field replacement as well. We got a central district health inspector out who advised me that I COULD do the drain field but she would recommend seeing what the tank replacement came up with. They dug the new tank and scoped the distribution box and roots had completely jammed two of the original 3 inch pipes. I checked them with a crowbar later and I could barely get the crowbar in two feet. We went with the new drain field, and they engineeered it with an eye to replacing it a second time later on--they left room to dig another one. I thought that was definitely forward thinking. My ground was harder than a seven year prison sentence. It took a couple of hours to dig the test hole. The inspector approved it and I went in the queue. They took a while to get me done. Something like October to December it sat with the new tank in place but the old tank still connected. This was not a big issue for me--I don't have little kids and i was sick with Covid anyway. They kept in decent touch with me to let me know what was going on. By December, they got out there and started digging the two trenches to replace the drain field. It took them about a week total to get it all dug, inspected installed, inspected and covered. It was complete by 23 December. It was a long project, but remember, i was not in a hurry. It helped me collect enough cash to pay them. at the end. the one thing I would say that could have been done better is they could have alerted me two days before they got here to dig like I asked. I was working at home and they showed up with the first trackhoe. I had to do a little rearranging of work so I could get things open for them. Otherwise they were awesome to work with. My dogs loved the father son team who ran the equipment (another father son team). When I would let the dogs out to take a leak, they would run over and get loved on. Not that my dogs are antisocial. It was just good to see. Final thing...There was an incident--the neighbor had hired a dump trailer driver to move some dirt for her. At some point, my OTHER neighbor's mailbox got knocked over. The dump trailer driver made a big deal out of how it was not him and it must have been the guys on the equipment. They just quietly explained it wasn't them. I looked it over adn my sister reported seeing a white delivery truck miss a turn -- the damage was consistent with a white truck not two black vehicles. It did not matter, because the guys dug and poured and set the mailbox back with a new post. For free. I can amke a court case it wasn't THEIR fault, but they did it to help. So yeah--the price was tough to take. But I got an entirely new septic system for under 20 large. I think it was a pretty good deal. STRONGLY RECOMMEND. WOULD USE AGAIN! Five and a half stars."

"Ryan and the crew were awesome to work deal with and came out quickly to give us an estimate on our septic issue. They were instrumental in helping expedite the permit process, so we could have the job completed asap. They worked quickly and were very polite and thorough while replacing the septic & drainfield the very next day. Prices seemed very reasonable and we would recommend them to anyone! We so appreciated all their helpfulness."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Most homeowners know there’s a septic system problem when they can smell one. However, this isn’t exactly a scientific deduction method. Consider some of the other signs: standing water or constantly damp earth in the drainage area, toilets and sinks that won’t drain or frequently back up, and loud plumbing. You really need to be on top of routine maintenance with septic systems in order to avoid such unpleasant symptoms of a septic issue. 

Buying a well drilling kit will save you money over hiring a professional. That said, digging a well is risky. If you make an error, you may have to get help fixing it. Also, the DIY costs are still pretty hefty when considering everything needed to complete the project successfully. You’ll need to account for the permit, pump, water tank, and more. If you don’t feel comfortable taking the necessary precautions to tackle this on your own, go with a pro.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), septic tanks must be located a decent distance from places subject to flooding or surface ponding. Additionally, septic tanks should be installed on level ground so that the waste can properly settle in the tank. Most tanks are located 10 to 20 feet away from the home. More specific requirements vary by location, so call a local septic pro or your local health department for more information.

Choosing a reliable septic tank company starts by finding an experienced company in your area with positive customer reviews online. You can also use the following tips to help ensure you have a positive experience:

  • Choose a company that is licensed and fully insured

  • Ask the company for customer references

  • Ask if the company provides any guarantee for the repair

  • Determine the provider’s level of experience

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.
