"Fantastic. Frank was very thorough and his crew worked diligently to locate the buried water line and perform the replacement. The fix was cost effective and is expected to last longer than the old copper pipe did. Once it was replaced the yard was back filled and the disturbed areas were covered with straw. The installation was neat and clean."

"Glenoak came out to reinstall a toilet that had been leaking .  While there, they noticed a leak from the pressure tank, which needed to be replaced.  They went out for the part w/o charging us for that time or travel.  Unfortunately, the replacement part didn?t work, and ultimately they had to replace the entire toilet.  They fixed a small gas pipe leak near our furnace while there, too.

Very professional, punctual, and competent.

"Ray was on-time, personable, knowledgeable and courteous. He listened to my description of the problem, asked a few questions, took a look at the layout. He then made three clear recommendations and explained why the least expensive option was our best choice. Based on our initial phone call, he had arrived with the proper tools and acted to resolve the situation. He left us with clear follow-up guidance and assured us that if one of the other options turned out to be required, he would adjust the charges based upon what we had already paid. One of the best experiences we've had with the plumbing industry!"

"Nathan was awesome to work with. I hired him to just certify my septic system on a new home that I bought, instead I had to have my whole septic moved and replaced! He did it in a timely fashion as much as he could with Inspections and rain delays. Good thing I didnt move in the house yet. I will definitely recommend Eagle and Son Septic Services."

"They called me right away once I submitted the request through Home Advisor and arrived the next day. Work was done quickly. My questions were answered and they will remind me in three years to have my septic cleaned again. Can't ask for more than that! Not sure of the value for the money, did not price around."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), septic tanks must be located a decent distance from places subject to flooding or surface ponding. Additionally, septic tanks should be installed on level ground so that the waste can properly settle in the tank. Most tanks are located 10 to 20 feet away from the home. More specific requirements vary by location, so call a local septic pro or your local health department for more information.

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.

While a traditional septic tank requires a leach field for wastewater disposal, it is possible to have a septic system without one. Some alternative systems, which are often used when there isn't enough space for a full-size leach field, include mound systems or sand filtration systems. In a conventional setup, the leach field is essential because it's where the wastewater goes after leaving the tank.

A septic tank lid is often 1 foot underground, but it could be just 4 inches from the surface or 4 feet deep. For septic tank lids that are closer to the surface, you’ll have an easier time locating them just by looking for signs in the yard or using a metal probe. But for septic tanks that are buried deeper underground, you’ll need to hire a pro with specialized equipment to track down the lid without risk of damaging utility lines.

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.
