We are a locally owned cape cod business, owned and operated by native cape codder Sam Dunford. We have been in business since 2012 providing quality work at a competitive price. From septic systems and excavation, to landscape construction and hardscapes, S.H. Dunford is your one stop shop. Follow us on Facebook! Facebook.com/shdunford

"Sam was prompt, professional, detail oriented, very kind and quick. He was patient as we considered the scope of the project and drove me away from adding unnecessary scope (and cost, which would have been more money for him). He was extremely communicative, something I rarely see around the Cape and meticulous in his work and clean up. Believe me when I say I have high expectations that workers rarely meet - and Sam met them all."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

The average life span of a well is about 30 to 50 years. Several factors can affect a well’s lifespan, such as its size, construction quality, water demand, and regular maintenance. Environmental factors, including droughts and earthquakes, can also have an influence. Drilling deeper, getting professional maintenance, and regulating your water usage can help extend your well’s lifespan.

Septic tanks are typically buried between four inches and four feet deep, depending on the property, the soil, and the size of the tank. When the septic tank is buried on the deeper end of this range, it may be harder for you to locate it on your own with a soil probe or just by observing the yard for signs of the tank. However, if you have trouble finding the septic tank, a pro will be happy to help you.

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.

Some signs that a septic tank is full include wastewater or even sewage backing up into drains in the house, foul smells coming up through the drains or around the yard, pooling water in the yard, spongy soil underfoot around the septic tank, gurgling noises in the pipes, or grass that looks lusher or greener than normal without any new lawn care services.

Conventional anaerobic septic systems are the least-expensive type of septic system, costing $3,000 to $8,000 to install. There are a few factors that impact this price, including the size of the tank. For example, a 1,000-gallon septic tank (the minimum size required in many municipalities) costs between $900 and $1,500, while a 1,500-gallon tank costs $1,500 to $2,500.
