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."

"I took advantage of a promotion ARS was offering in mid April to come to my condo for a routine tune up of my furnace and AC. From the second the plumber walked through my door, he was trying to sell me something. First, he said the quality of my air was awful, and I needed an air scrubber. Then he recommended I purchase their annual tune-up service/subscription where I get priority service and discounts on the parts he was trying to sell me. We then went out to my Air Conditioning unit. He said he was not allowed to touch it because it was out of code and against environmental standards. He recommended I purchase a new unit. When I asked how much, he said he'd need to get a sales professional out to give me a quote. That was after he had tried to sell me three different things... This week, with the temperatures rising, I turned on my air conditioning. Except there was a problem: It would not turn on. After trying to troubleshoot by changing the batteries in my thermostat and switching off and on the fuses, I finally called an HVAC professional recommended by a friend. The plumber walked in, looked at my furnace, laughed, and turned on the switch. He said most likely it was left off so I would have to call back and be charged for another ARS service call. He also tested my air quality and said it was fine. Lastly, even though my AC unit might be out of code. I am still grandfathered in on maintenance and other services that are needed. Long story short, as a new home buyer (less than 1 year) I will never utilize ARS services again and would not recommend it to any friends or family members. All they are trying to do is sell you their products and services. Clearly, they do not care about delivering a great customer experience or consider doing what is best for the customers. Or I guess former customers...."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Most septic tanks need to be emptied every 3 to 5 years, but it’s a good idea to monitor the fill levels of your septic tank all the time. You can do this by installing a pressure level sensor to detect the internal tank pressure, or by having a septic tank company perform an annual inspection to let you know when you’ll need to pump the tank.

A well pressure tank can last up to 15 years. However, how long your well pressure tank lasts depends on a few factors. If you have an appropriately sized tank from a high-quality brand, it’s more likely to last longer. Maintaining clean well water also helps since there won’t be sediment mucking up the works. Keeping to a maintenance schedule ensures that you catch minor repairs before they turn into big problems that require a complete tank replacement.

On average, septic systems last between 15 and 20 years. However, with proper care and routine septic maintenance, you may be able to extend your septic system’s life span to 30 years (or more). Some ways to keep your system in tip-top shape include scheduling a professional inspection every two to five years and reducing the flow of wastewater into your system.

There are a couple of ways you can determine the depth of your well. One method is to use a device called a well sounder. This tool has a long measuring tape containing a sensor to alert you once the end reaches the water. 

Or you can DIY it by using a long tape measure with a half-filled bottle of water attached to it. Lower the tape measure into your well. Once you feel tension on the tape, you’ll know the bottle has reached your static water level. This will give you an approximate idea of your well’s depth.

A septic system will typically last about 20 to 30 years, although the lifespan can stretch further to 40 years with proper care. Proper septic system care includes having the tank pumped every few years, scheduling cleanings and inspections annually, and conserving water. Also, keep your septic system in good health by only flushing human waste and toilet paper, and never pour fats, grease, oils, or coffee grounds down the drains.
