"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."

"We hired JLM for the past year for all the exterior work. They did great at the beginning. They mow the lawn regularly. Their snow removal is ok. They tend to come in on the late side. Often times we already started shoveling when they came. Somehow they never applied fertilizer as we requested, but they did not charge us either. For the past half a year, their service has becoming more problematic. We missed almost all fall services. It has been really hard to reach them via phone, txt, or email."

Aquarium Services FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Recognizing signs of a failing septic system is crucial to prevent costly damage and health hazards. Foul odors in and around your home, slow drainage in sinks and toilets, or gurgling noises in plumbing fixtures can indicate problems with drainage. Lush, green patches of grass near the drain field or wastewater pooling on the ground are alarming signs that may indicate a leak in the system. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's vital to address them promptly to avoid more extensive and expensive issues.

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.

You can check your own septic tank, but take precautions. Locate the access lid, usually buried a few inches underground, and remove it carefully. Look for the sludge and scum levels, and if they’re high, that means pumping may be necessary. Check for odors, slow drains, or pooling water around the drain field, which could indicate issues. Never enter the tank, as toxic gases can be fatal. All of that being said, a professional inspection is safer and more thorough.

Before you hire a septic repair pro, make sure you get three written quotes from local companies to help you evaluate qualified candidates. Ask each company to provide proof of licensure and insurance. Finally, when you decide to hire a specific pro or company, ask for a written contract that sets out all the essential terms, including specific work expectations, a timeline, what permits are needed, who is responsible for obtaining permits, and clear payment details, including due dates.
