"Thank goodness for Mastero Edgar, his family and Crew! It was a dark and stormy night in Feb 2021, icy yard and flooded basement. We had cleared our septic tank 3 months prior and the basement flooded with clean water! We had hired a plumbing company 2 nights in a row...no clear answers despite hours of work!! Then I reached Angie.. Mr. Edgars daughter , Mr. Edgar overheard me, and spoke to me at 8:45 pm... on a Saturday night !!!! He did not have to... but he did. He found the problem....the following day I watched the most synchronized orchestra by the team ! Still mesmerized by the way the work was carried out! I work in health care, I am a business woman and I love classical music! Let me tell you all, their work is innovative! My husband and I live in peace after those 3 agonizing days... knowing that there are angles out there and then there is Mastero Edgar, his family and crew! Clean, professional, affordable. Mr. Edgar, thanks again for the reminder to “go an extra mile” when I care for my clients! Regards, Grace Paul. Rockville, MD"

"Patrick was able to correct all of my problems.  He was quick, provided excellent work, explained to me what he was doing and showed me what he discovered.  Once he found the fracture in the toilet, he was able to order and install the new toilet the next day.  He gave me a fair price on the toilet and labor and even replaced some of the connecting plumbing.  I am more than happy with his work and would recommend his service to anyone needing plumbing work.  He recommended eventually replacing my other two toilets and recommended which to replace first.  I appreciate his work, professionalism and efficiency.  I will definitely use him for the replacements and any other plumbing needs that I have.

"Our a/c unit had caught had caught on fire and it was 1000 degrees outside and it was sparking. We interviewed 3 people. They took the time to sit down and tell us what they were going to do. The price was so reasonable! They replaced the entire outside air conditioning unit plus the heating unit inside.

Then we had the vents cleaned in the house, because they were so messed up. They did such a phenomenal job that we had our hot water heater tank replaced by them. Our house is so much more warmer in the Winter and so much more colder in the Summer. 

It was a significant amount of money, but it was such a better price than the other. It was needed, but also just the way the man presented himself when he did his presentation. He was really, really good and he had been with the company a long time. He was older and knowledgeable. We trusted what he said and we like what he said and the timeframe he could do it in. He came in and he did it in that time. 

The quality product that we got was worth every penny that we paid and we have never had an issue with it. We got an appointment right away. They were great! We would have them come and do anything again! They taught us how to change our own filters. "

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

Wells should be at least 100 feet deep for drinking water, but they may need to be deeper depending on the local geology, water quality, and your household’s water usage. Work with a qualified well drilling professional who can assess the appropriate depth for your well and test the water before drinking it.

Septic drain fields should be at least 10 feet from the property line, though exact requirements vary by location. Some areas may require further distances, such as 25 feet or more, depending on soil conditions and local health regulations. This extension ensures proper wastewater absorption and prevents contamination of neighboring homes.

With regular servicing and general upkeep, both a well pump and pressure tank can last for years. The average lifespan of a well pump is around eight to 15 years. A well pressure tank can last from seven to 10 years. How long a well pump and pressure tank lasts also depends on a variety of factors such as type, size, material, and brand.

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.
