"Everything went extremely well! George and his team were knowledgeable, professional, respectful and kind. They took pride in their work and it shows in the completed project. They arrived at the time that they promised and completed the entire project in less time than expected. I have already made a request to utilize their services again within the next couple of months."

"Wow was I originally wrong and wow am I happy I decided to hire Big Z's! Long story short, I purchased what I thought was high quality tile from a local retailer. The plan was to use this tile on my master bath for both the shower as well as the floor. I started to get my quotes and that's when I quickly learned there are a lot of amateurs out there and then there are the pros. Big Z is a PRO! He took one look at my tile and immediately recognized it was B-grade. He showed me several areas on almost every single tile that had manufacturing flaws. I would've installed this faulty tile had he not educated me! Not only did Z save me from having bad tile installed but he assisted in finding some quality tile (locally as well) at an even better price. The work was completed quickly and the final product was jaw-dropping! I am beyond pleased with my service and just want to thank Big Z one more time for a job well done!"

Aquarium Services questions, answered by experts

The average cost to pump a septic tank is around $550, though prices can range from $250 to over $1,250. The final cost depends on several factors, including the size of your tank, how full it is, and your geographic location. For example, pumping a small tank might cost between $290 and $530, while a larger 1,750-gallon tank could cost $600 or more. Prices also vary by region; for instance, costs in Minneapolis range from $175 to $275, while in Portland, they can be between $440 and $750. Regular pumping is essential to prevent waste buildup, which can lead to backups and damage to your drain field.

Natural bacteria break down sludge in a septic tank by dissolving and consuming the solid waste. Your septic tank needs this bacteria to work correctly and avoid filling beyond capacity. You can increase the natural bacteria in your septic tank by adding three rotten tomatoes through your garbage disposal every three months.

Pumping involves opening the tank lid, removing solids and wastewater, and inspecting components for wear or damage to maintain optimal function.

A septic system's lifespan typically ranges from 15 to 40 years, with a common average of 20 to 30 years. The longevity heavily depends on the tank's material, maintenance diligence, and usage habits. With proper care, lifespans can reach the upper end of this range.

Lifespan by Tank Material:

  • Concrete: 20 to 40 years

  • Plastic or Fiberglass: 30 to 40 years

  • Steel: 15 to 20 years

To maximize your system's lifespan, follow these maintenance best practices:

  • Regular Pumping and Inspections: Have the tank pumped every three to five years and schedule professional inspections regularly.

  • Mindful Usage: Only flush human waste and toilet paper. Avoid putting items like cat litter, paper towels, cigarette butts, fats, grease, oils, or coffee grounds down your drains.

  • Avoid Chemicals: Do not pour harsh chemicals into the system.

  • Water Conservation: Reduce the amount of wastewater your system has to process.

  • Protect the Drain Field: Avoid driving or building heavy structures over the drain field area.

Over time, your septic tank can accumulate a buildup of sludge at the bottom of the tank. If left unpumped and uncleaned, the sludge will back up into your pipes and home, causing failure and extensive (and smelly) damage. Repairs to your septic system can be costly, which is why regular maintenance is required. It takes about 30 minutes to pump a septic tank that’s 1,250 gallons or less or 1 hour for larger varieties.
