"Great job!! I called Tom at 5:00 PM on a Saturday afternoon expecting to leave a voice message for him, but Tom actually answered. By 6:00 PM, he was at my house reviewing my job (removal of 5 tree stumps and cutting down of one tree), and gave me a price (which was very reasonable). He did the job 4 days later (I picked the day, actually). Tom does not grind down stumps... instead, he has an excavator he uses to actually dig out the stumps. All stumps, limbs, and debris were trucked away by Tom and he cleaned up the area. Tom is very personable, gave me the information I needed prior to doing the job, worked hard doing the job, did the job very well, and cleaned up. For all the reasons stated in this review, I highly recommend Tom if you need stumps removed."

"Very well. The crew did a very thorough job removing the old and damaged mortarwork, and since they used a power washer as well as rock hammers the basement was quite a lot cleaner when they left than when they started. The worked quickly, cleaned up thoroughly, found and fixed more than expected, and completed ahead of schedule and on budget."

"This was my first Home Advisor experience. and it was perfect. I got three vendors -- three bids and JLM beat them all to get the job. He was very responsive to communications and very friendly. I had 7 overgrown bushes and a small tree removed, he was great at working around my buried sump pump discharge line and at moving my walkway to make the regrading work. He also identified some foundation issues where the roots had been pressed up against the foundation and get them out in a safe way. I am thrilled with the work and look forward to his work on planting new bushes this Fall."

"Michael went out of his way to help and find solutions for our problems. He was super flexible and patient, and had lots of knowledge to share about the job. Our communication back and forth was very helpful. The team was awesome, cleaned up everything afterwards, and were very easy to have in the house. Would recommend!"

Aquarium Services questions, answered by experts

You should pump your septic tank once every two to four years for a family of four, depending on your septic tank size. You should pump a 1,000-gallon septic tank every two years, while a 1,500-gallon tank should be pumped every four years. Water usage also affects how often you should pump your septic tank. If you notice slow drains, foul smells, or gurgling sounds from your drains, you should pump your septic tank as soon as possible.

Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you’ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.

The best times of year to pump or empty a septic tank are spring and fall. Many professionals recommend spring because the ground has thawed, making the tank easier to access, and any snowmelt or rainfall can aid in proper drainage. Pumping before summer is also ideal to avoid conflicts with vacations or outdoor gatherings.

Fall is another great option, as contractors may be less busy than in the spring. Servicing the tank in late fall or early spring can also reduce the risk of overflow from extra precipitation during winter and spring.

While summer is a possibility, winter is generally not recommended. The ground is often frozen, which can make it difficult to access the tank, and the waste inside may also be frozen.

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.

A leach field can take several days or weeks to dry out, even with help from additives designed to improve bacterial activity and promote draining. Because of the risks to health and the potential for wastewater to run off into drinking water sources, it’s better to hire a pro to fix a saturated drain field than try to wait for it to dry out.
