"This is the third time we've used Preferred Professional Plumbing in the last couple months. First, Grant and his assistant came out to replace our hose bib, the part that provides water to an outside spigot. While they were on that visit, I mentioned we'd need to buy a new kitchen faucet. He took a look and suggested we call Moen and ask for a warranty replacement. That saved us from buying a $300 faucet. He came out the following week and installed the new faucet. Both of those visits were great. Then last Friday, our 75-gallon water heater died. I called Grant, and he said he'd be able to get out the next day to replace it with either a new tank, or a tankless model. We opted for the tankless one for unlimited hot water. He again showed up on time and got us hot water with some temporary connections... you never realize how much you miss hot water until you don't have it. He came back twice more to run all the permanent water, gas, and air lines. He's a real artist with piping. I'll attach some pictures so you can see how neat and tidy the installation is. I heartily endorse Grant and Preferred Professional Plumbing if you want a job done right!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

A septic tank riser features a base ring that you need to install flush to the opening of the septic tank. After thoroughly cleaning the opening of the tank, fit the base ring over the opening and use a butyl sealant rope to create an airtight seal with the tank’s rim. Cut the riser rings to the appropriate height and stack them on the base ring. Then, install the riser lid. This task might be taken on by an experienced DIYer, but you should always call a septic tank professional if you are unsure of your skills.

Certain foods are easier on your septic tank than others. Septic-safe foods include yogurt, fruit, cooked veggies, and bread because these items all break down relatively easily and can pass through your system safely. Rotten tomatoes, specifically, are actually good for your septic tank because they can increase the amount of good bacteria in the system. 

There are a few signs you can look out for to determine if your well pump needs to be repaired or replaced, including the following:

  • Your water pressure fluctuates.

  • You lose water entirely on occasion.

  • You notice the pump making unusual noises.

  • Water sputters out of your fixtures.

  • Your utility bills suddenly spike without explanation.

  • You notice sediment or cloudiness in your water.

  • You hear that the pump runs continuously.

If you notice any of these issues, call a professional well pump repair service to inspect it and determine whether you should repair or replace it.

There are several signs that your well pump’s pressure switch isn’t working as it should. For instance, if your pump runs continuously, produces weak water pressure, or doesn’t turn on at all, you may have a bad switch. Also, if your water flow is erratic or unpredictable, it could indicate an issue with your pressure switch.

By keeping up with regular maintenance and inspections, you can expect your septic system to last 20 to 40 years. You need to have a pro pump your system every three to five years, depending on how much water your household uses. Always call a pro at the first sign of any potential trouble to increase the life span of your system.
