"Mark called immediately after the project was submitted, and was able to come over for an estimate the next day. He arrived promptly at our agreed time and gave me a great estimate to remove a number of tree limbs which were hanging over my house and trim branches around my power and telephone lines coming into the house (something I definitely didn't want to do). I accepted his estimated and he asked if he could start later that day. I was thrilled. He started that day and came back the next to finish the job. He carted all trimmings away and left the yard clean. I highly recommend Legacy Landscape."

"The work started a bit late but it was well worth the wait. They removed the asphalt from my patio and put pavers down. It looks beautiful! I highly recommend them. They know what they are doing and did a great job. Quite professional. We may have them pave our driveway as well."

"We interviewed a few contractors and most agreed on the same strategy for dealing with the problem: an internal French drain and sump pump. We chose Scott from Affordable Masonry b/c he seemed the most experienced in dealing with this issue. His explanation of the problem and what he would do to address it was very clear. His write-up of the proposal was brief but contained all the useful information. He was open to being asked questions and gave truthful responses. We agreed on a date and Scott and two other men arrived promptly at 8:30 to begin the job. They worked very hard all day and did everything they said they would. An unexpected problem arose and we negotiated a reasonable compromise. They finished the job around 5:30 and the basement was even cleaner than when they began the job. A few tests of the new system demonstrated that it was working as planned. We feel confident that we have addressed the issue and confident that we could call Scott if a problem arose again."

Aquarium Services questions, answered by experts

Depending on the home, wastewater either goes into a septic tank and seeps back into the backyard or is sent via sewer system to a local sewage-treatment plant. Septic systems naturally separate different components of the waste so that it can naturally and safely disperse it. They are usually reserved for homes not served by a municipal sewage department (like rural homes). A treatment plant, on the other hand, speeds up that process through screening and purification.

On average, you should call a pro to pump your cesspool once per year. If you have a larger home with a lot of family members, you may need to pump more (up to six times per year). On the flip side, if you’re talking about a cesspool for a home you don’t use much or if you’re the only occupant in a home, you won’t have to pump nearly as much.

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

While homeowners connected to a municipal sewer line still have to keep up with plumbing maintenance, the downside to a septic system is that all the maintenance falls on the homeowners. Not calling in a pro to pump the tank every few years or accidentally flushing or draining the wrong types of materials can quickly cause clogs, which can back up into drains around the home.

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.
