"By Andrew v. Engineer Dave Schofield of Capstone displayed professionalism by turning a flawed design for our Sudbury septic system into one highly adaptive and functional. He was purposeful about doing the right thing even when not winning installation contract, execution of which he in in fact supervised. In a business which includes its share of uneven performers, Schofield’s competence is a stand-out."

"Barrows Contracting did an exceptional job on a complete replacement of our existing septic system. Glenn and his team were extremely professional and considerate throughout the process. They had a tight area to work in and they were able to take down a large tree and preserve a stone wall saving us time and money. They ran into ledge when installing the new larger tank. No problem, they were able to split the ledge and remove it the next day. The finished yard grading looks better than before the project started. They were on time and on budget, true to their estimate. This is a large ticket project and I would highly recommend Barrows Contracting for any septic repair or replacement needs. I like that they are a locally owned family business."

"Really nice job done! Rick had explained everything it may had potentially problem for the dishwasher (to me it is just cosmetic problem), and you would think he is really completist. He is also offer life warranty for the installation. I am very pleased how efficient he had done his job. He also helped to fix my in-sink erator and recycled my old dishwasher and refrigerator. I would have him for other appliance project in the future."

"My existing toilet was a pressure assist type and needs a high level of water pressure to work properly.  I had a water pressure tank installed 20 years ago to help overall and for this toilet.  The tank  that I have had stopped working.  Peter came over and tried to fix that tank but determined that it was not repairable.  The water pressure has improved in Bellingham since I installed this tank and it is no longer needed.  We then decided that the easiest and cheapest way to solve my problem is to simply install a new toilet.  Peter gave me some advice on what toilets to look for and we scheduled a time for him to come back out and install the new toilet.  
He arrived a little early for the installation and it took him and his assistant about 45 minutes to remove tho old toilet and install the new one.  They were very professional and worked quickly.  When they were finished they left the place very clean; you wouldn't know they had been there. 
I would recommend them and I would use them again.

"Very knowledgeable and friendly. Most importantly, I didnâ t feel as though I was being pressured into repairs or services I didnâ t need. If your looking for an honest company I recommend having S&G look at any septic problems orTitle V you may need."

Septic Tanks questions, 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.

Most septic tanks can handle two to three loads of laundry per day, or a weekly total of between seven and 10 loads. Although septic systems do require homeowners to be somewhat careful with their plumbing systems—for instance, it’s not a good idea to flush a bunch of toilet paper all at once—they can still handle fairly heavy use.

Ideally, you should conduct a mechanical inspection and a bacterial or well water inspection yearly. While you might be able to push it off to every other year, it’s best to have peace of mind, especially when it comes to something that you use so frequently. 

If you experience repeated gastrointestinal illness in the household, it's important to test the well water more regularly for quality and cleanliness to check for bacteria.

For the most part, choosing between 30/50 psi and 40/60 psi is based on your water-pressure preference. However, it can also depend a little bit on your house—if you have older plumbing, a lower water pressure can be easier on the pipes (and a bit more gentle on your well pump). 

The lower 30/50 pressure is usually enough for a single-story home, but you may want 40/60 if you have multiple stories, as the extra pressure helps water flow smoothly up to the second floor.

The efficacy of a drain field depends on a wide variety of factors, though a well-maintained one can last as long as 40 or 50 years. Of the different types of septic tanks on the market, concrete and plastic tanks tend to last the longest—upwards of 40 years if they’re pumped regularly—while steel tanks have a tendency to rust over time and may need to be replaced after 15 or 20 years.
