"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."

"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."

"We were having problems with our septic. 1 st we had the tank pumped. Continued to have problems with backing up. Zack and his helper came out and snaked the clean out pipe. Worked for a couple weeks backed up again. Bryan and his helper came out and snaked the pipe again and ran the camera in the pipe which showed tree roots clogging up the pipe. He then ran a root cutting tool in the pipe. As Bryan was doing all of this he explained everything he was doing and why. I was very impressed with his knowledge. He was excellent. He advised we need a crew to dig up the pipe to the tank. Jay and Cody came out and dug up the pipe and inlet access and found clog mixed with tree roots. They cleaned everything up and all is working. Thank all of you guys for your help. I would recommend all them !"

"The service person arrived on time assessed that my water heater (original to the house) should be replaced and help find one that would service the whole house and family going forward. The installation was quick and professional. The service person walked us through diy tips to keep the unit going for years to come. A+ Service."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

A leaking well pipe is quite different from if the well itself is leaking. To seal a leaking well, pour a cement mixture or bentonite into the space between the well casing and the borehole wall. The heavier cement collects at the bottom to form a solid seal, pushing lighter materials like mud and fluids up toward the surface. Professional well installation companies have the equipment to do this properly. 

Some of the signs that could mean your water is contaminated, such as cloudiness or bubbliness, could also be non-problems that don’t affect your water’s potability. However, if your water smells or tastes strange, it’s a good idea to stop drinking it and test it immediately. If your well water is contaminated, the best way to discover that is to test it.

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.

If you’re going away on vacation or leaving your home for a long time, it’s a good idea to switch off your well pump and pressure tank before you go. This way you can prevent any damage from unexpected leaks that may occur or unforeseen electrical issues while you’re away.

A household of four can easily fill a 1,000-gallon septic tank within a week. It may be 10 to 14 days for smaller households. But the reason why you don't need weekly pumping is because the tank's contents eventually reach the overflow pipe. They flow down this pipe to the absorption area whenever water is used in your home. The tank keeps working at this full level until it's pumped again.
