"We had an insane amount of rain one evening and noticed our yard by the septic was flooding. We had just moved in a few months beforehand and have never had a septic. So, we paniced! I called Shanksters that night around midnight once we started hearing strange gurglings from our sinks and toilets. The friendly operator assured me we would be fine until morning so we didn't have to pay extra for middle of the night emergency call. That was nice of her, we thought.
They arrived frst thing in the morning. Deduced we needed a new pump. So they pumpeed out tank to avoid any overflowing while the pump wasn't running. They told us they had a bunch of calls due to the rain, so they went to town to get apump and on a couple of more calls (fine with us..). They came back that afternoon and replaced the pump. I paid them and left. They left me the brochure for the pump, I was looking it over, and looked it up online. It was about $100. Pumping the septic was $300. Something smelled fishy and I felt I had overpaid for their services. So, I called them and said as much.  Also, stange gurugling was still happening. So, they came back out, and we found we had yet another septic tank. The guy apologised for the over pricing (I don't know if it was an accident or on purpose) and offered to pump our other tank out at no extra charge. I thought that sounded fair. I'm not against anybody making a profit, but that was just a bit much. I'm glad that I called and expressed my displeasure. They were all very nice. I would hire them again, but will definatly be aware of pricing next time!!

"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."

"Had the service line from our house to the septic (under the driveway) replaced as it had pulled away from the tank (which we later found was due to the original installer not doing it right). They removed the concrete, replaced the service line and replaced the concrete after. They came out quick for a quote, used a camera to inspect the line (which was nearly half of the cost of all other quotes to run a camera) and found the damaged pipe. Was put on their schedule quick (luckily they had an opening so soon) and they performed quality work. Communication was great from start to end. I can't say enough good things about this company. A+ Service"

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

There should be a red button or an on/off switch on or in your box. Press the button or flip the switch, then turn it back on by doing the same action again. If this doesn’t work, reset the breakers inside the box by flipping them off and back on again. After this, your alarm should stay off if there’s nothing wrong with your system. However, if the alarm is still sounding and there’s still a red light on, it’s time to call a pro for a diagnosis.

A septic smell may be harmful because sewer gas is dangerous depending on the exposure amount and length of time. Sewer gas is made up of multiple gases, including hydrogen sulfide, methane, ammonia, and carbon dioxide. Some of these gases, like hydrogen sulfide and ammonia, are toxic to humans and can be fatal in high concentrations or long exposures.

There are three layers of wastewater in a septic tank: scum (solid waste that floats to the top of the wastewater), liquid (the relatively clean liquid wastewater in between the two other layers), and sludge (solid waste that falls to the bottom of the wastewater). The buildup of sludge is one of the main reasons septic tanks need to be pumped. If the tank is more than 1/3 of the way full with a combination of sludge and scum, it’s time to call a pro for pumping.

Bladder and diaphragm well pressure tanks are usually pre-charged at the factory. Even so, it’s important to check the air pressure in the tank using a tire pressure gauge on the relief valve. The instruction manual usually calls for 28 psi. Use a hand pump to add more air or release some air from the tank to reach the desired number. Check the pressure periodically to see if you need to add more air to the tank.

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