"Zach’s experience and knowledge in drains and septic systems were immediately evident. No home/business owner ever wants to have issues with the systems he works with, but what stood out most was his genuine dedication to customer satisfaction. He truly takes pride in his work and gives honest advice with grace and respect. Highly recommend!"

"Doug (owner) and Brandon arrived right as scheduled (prior communication to confirm appointment was excellent). After a lot of digging they were able to locate tank/lid. Very professional and polite to deal with. Extremely reasonable pricing, both were incredibly nice to deal with. Would highly recommend McAtee to anyone. Thanks again!!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to drill a well by hand, but it calls for a good deal of physical labor. Drilling a well by hand is best suited for softer soil, and it may not be possible through rockier terrain. For wider and deeper holes, companies with professional equipment make the job much easier.

Because well water is not artificially filtered or pre-treated, it may contain contaminants. As a result, it’s possible for well water to damage pipes based on what is in the water. Well water can be corrosive, slowly rusting and dissolving pipes, fixtures, and fittings. The corrosion can affect the taste and quality of the drinking water that comes out of the taps in your home. 

A septic alarm can sound different depending on your system, but often, it’s a loud, repetitive beeping noise or a steady, high-pitched noise. It may also be a loud buzzing noise. To confirm the noise is your septic alarm, check your alarm box for a red light. You can also silence your alarm with a red button or switch on the box. Look for something that says “Test” or “Mute.”

Yes, it is possible to pump a septic tank too frequently. The ideal pumping schedule varies based on the tank's capacity, household size, and water usage. Pumping the septic tank more often than recommended can cause the beneficial bacteria to leach into the drain field, leading to an imbalance and a build-up of solid waste.

Well water is often assumed to be hard because of its high mineral content. Hard water can lead to mineral build-up in your pipes and appliances. You can manage hard water by installing a whole-house filter system. These systems can help extend the life of your water-reliant appliances like your hot water tank and dishwasher.
