"The plumber was scheduled to come on 4/23 between 1:00 and 3:00p.m. At 1:00p.m. I got a call saying that the plumber would not be able to come until 4/24 as he was delayed at a previous call. He arrived promptly at 9:00a.m. the next morning. One toilet would not flush properly. He repaired that toilet. The other toilet ran on occasion. He replaced the fill valve. On occasion it still runs."

"Excellent work. He covered his shoes while walking in the house. Before starting the project he analyzed the whole tubing route of the sink all the way to the basement. Cleaned up the whole area after the job was completed. Professional work ethics."

"Keon and his team were on top of it from the beginning. I was greeted well over the phone, and felt as if Keon was invested in my problem before being hired for the job. They were on time, very professionally dressed, and I felt their estimate was reasonable. As they explained the estimate, they were able to explain the why's of the estimate and give a rough estimate of the time it will take to complete the job. The quality of their work was outstanding. The care and craftsmanship that went into the install of the new supply lines can be easily observed. Supply lines were straight and parallel to one-another. They tested everything with me prior to and after cleanup, and made sure I was happy with everything before closing out the job. Definitive Plumbing and Heating takes great pride in their workmanship and relationship with their customers. They resolved all my issues, cleaned up behind themselves, and left my wife and I satisfied. At the writing of this review (about a month later) we have had no issues with the work and have received compliments regarding the layout design of the new supply lines. I would definitely use Definitive again for any plumbing needs, and I highly recommend them."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

When considering the price of drilling a well, factor in how much you’ll save in water costs per year. The average family of four uses 100 gallons of water per person per day in the U.S. With a private water well, you can save hundreds each year.

Wells are also environmentally friendly. You don’t need to worry about drinking water treated with chemicals. Talk to at least three well pump contractors in your area. They’ll be able to tell you more about your options, give you different quotes, and discuss the biggest concerns.

For homes with a septic tank, harsh chemicals like those found in drain cleaner or bleach aren’t recommended. Some chemical drain cleaners can disrupt the balance of bacteria in the septic tank or damage your pipes. For homes with a septic tank, you can choose drain cleaners specifically formulated for use with septic tanks or go with a drain snake. When in doubt, make sure you know who to call for a clogged drain. 

Since vinegar is a weak acid with a pH of two to three, it’s generally safe for septic systems. It won’t eat away at the good bacteria in your septic tank and can help break down the sludge, which is its bottom layer. However, like with everything in life, moderation is key.

Yes, septic tank companies must be licensed in most states and municipalities to perform services like installation, alteration, repair, and pumping. Since laws vary by location, it's crucial to check local requirements.

Hiring an unlicensed professional can lead to poor work, code violations, and significant fines. Always verify that your chosen company is properly licensed and fully insured to avoid liability. You can use tools like Angi’s contractor licensing search to check a pro's credentials.

It's also helpful to understand the difference between licensing and certification. A license is a legal requirement to operate, while certifications are voluntary. Credentials like the “Angi Approved” badge indicate that a business meets extra standards, such as passing a background check and maintaining a high rating.

Talking with a septic pro before planting trees near your tank is best to ensure the roots won’t interfere with your septic system. However, there is an easy way to figure out where to plant a tree—but you’ll need to know how tall it can get when it’s fully grown. For instance, if the tree can reach 50 feet, plant it at least 50 feet from your septic system.
