"Chris from Acme was very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. He quickly determined that there was no problem with my septic system’s drainage field, which I was concerned about. I will call them in the future when I need any maintenance for the system."

"This family owned and operated company went way beyond what customer service and expertise I had expected to replace my old failed septic tank. They explained all steps they needed to bring my old system up to code. They stayed in contact with me almost daily and took pictures when I was unavailable to be home and see their progress! They even leveled my sloping backyard to make it more aesthetically pleasing and replanted all the grassy areas. After comparing many companies costs, and type of system I'd need for this service, i am very pleased with the quote LED presented to me, the work time to complete the job, and the final results! Thank you LED team! It's nice to see that a true honest work ethic is still in vogue! Thanks Derek and Dad! You all did a great job! I'd highly recommend!"

"Perfect. The holes were already dug and tank was accessible. This was right after many heavy rains so I was worried about excess water. They let me know what to expect and potential risks they might encounter. No risks were realized and they were efficient for a good price."

Excellent, I was kept informed and permitted and encouraged to inspect their work at points during the process.


I felt I got great service that was well worth the cost.
Those repairs were completed nearly 3 years ago, and my tenant has never had a problem with water back up since.

"The plumber said my backed up pipes were from the septic system needing to be cleaned. Called Max Haas Company and they were able to get someone out the same day. They dug down to the tank top and cleaned the tank. Unfortunately, that didn't solve my plumbing problem but their service was excellent. Would definitely use them again.

"We were having low water pressure so we called J & C well and drilling to come and check it out. They came out on a Saturday and gave us a quote. He came back out on Monday and replaced the well pump.  Our well is hard to get to so it was not an easy job. We also had a leak in our tank so we had him replace it. He did a great job! Very professional and kind! If we  need a plumber we would call him again!

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Common signs that your well pump is failing include fluctuating or consistently poor water pressure, sputtering water from faucets, or a complete loss of water. Other indicators are unusual noises coming from the pump, the pump running continuously, dirty or cloudy water, or a sudden, unexplained spike in your utility bills. While some issues, especially after a power outage, might be resolved by simply restarting the power or priming the pump, persistent problems suggest a more serious issue. If you notice any of these red flags, it is recommended to call a professional well pump service to inspect the system and determine whether it needs to be repaired or replaced.

Although cesspits may be necessary depending on your main sewage system access or nearby soil quality, they carry a few drawbacks. Cesspools require regular emptying and have relatively high maintenance and pumping costs. Certain areas also disallow the use of cesspools and may require you to cover the cost of existing cesspools to be converted into septic tanks.

How do you set your well’s pressure tank? All you need to do is first drain the tank of water and find the pressure switch. Remove the switch cover and adjust the switch with a wrench—clockwise to increase water pressure, and counter-clockwise to reduce it. Each complete turn of the nut on the switch should equal 2.5 psi. Once this is done, replace the switch cover. All that’s left is to adjust the pressure of the tank itself using an air compressor and a tire gauge to support the new setting.

The ideal depth of a septic drain field is 18 to 36 inches below the surface. The trenches must be deep enough to allow proper wastewater distribution and filtration while remaining shallow enough for oxygen to reach the soil, promoting bacterial activity that helps break down contaminants. In areas with high groundwater or poor drainage, shallower systems like mound drain fields may be required.

While abandoning a tank without treating it and following strict rules is illegal, there are several other ways to dispose of an old septic tank. One standard method is to pump out and crush the tank where it rests and bury it in the soil. Another is to remove it and transport it to a landfill. Finally, if abandonment is the best option, your contractor must pump out the tank and fill it with inert material, such as sand or concrete, depending on local regulations.
