Hi, I’m Mrs. Michael, and when you need something repaired, We wanna be your guy. Back when I was raising two babies, my husband and I started a plumbing company, an electrical company, AND a heating and air company. Mr. Michael is a genius with tools, but he did NOT enjoy running 3 big companies, so he asked me to do it. Turns out, I LOVE it!! I believe that if we make your problems disappear quick and easy, then when someone you know needs something repaired you’ll say: “I’ve got a guy! . . . Her name is Mrs. Michael.”

"I called Mrs.Michael plumbing and electrician on a Sunday and was told the service call would cost $129. However, I wasn?t informed that the $129 only covered the technician?s arrival. Once on-site, I was told diagnosing the issue would be an additional $450 ? and that price only covered two outlets, with anything else costing extra. I?ve rented homes for over 30 years, and I?ve never encountered such misleading pricing practices."

"I went through Universal Septic to completely replace my septic field. Let me start with, Eric is very good at telling you everything you want to hear. He gave me an over the phone estimate that was much lower than other companies. When he ran the final estimate, the price went up more than double his over-the-phone estimate. His price was still a little better price amongst other companies I had called. He was very pleasant when I met him and I had no doubts or worries that he would go above and beyond to keep his clients happy. They reconstructed the septic field back in February 2022. On the first day, I was home and I heard a big crash and felt my house shake. His men hit my chimney with one of their trucks and took a good size chunk out of one of the bricks. The job itself took about a week to complete. The men said they would be back out in March or early April for the regrade. Eric also said he would have someone out to repair my chimney. His guys were NOT back in March or april for the regrade. Instead, I had to hound company with emails and phone calls to get them to come out and finish the job they started. Again, they were good at telling me what I wanted to hear. I was told countless times that I was next on the list or they would be out the following week but they did not fix my backyard until mid JUNE. At this point my backyard was a mess! The land was filled with weeds, ruts from the trucks and small sink holes from all the rain we were getting. It was very dangerous to walk on and yet I had to deal with it for months. After the regrade, I had a fence guy come out to help fix the section of fence they took down to get their equipment through. All the hardware that was holding the chain link fence in place was missing and the fence was damaged beyond repair. I had to replace the section completely. Eric warned me they would have to take it down to get their equipment through. He said there would be minimal damage but did not warn me I would have to replace that section completely. It has now been 8 months since the septic field had been replaced and I am still waiting for someone to fix the damage done to my chimney. I am beyond frustrated and hate writing bad reviews. I really wanted to like this company, but I am very unhappy with how the job went and how long it took for Universal to finish the job they started. If you are looking to contract someone out for a bigger job, not just pumping the tank, I would look into other companies."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

While you can drain water softener backwash into a septic tank, doing so may cause several problems. One problem is that increased sodium chloride levels from water softener backwash can kill septic tank bacteria, decreasing the effectiveness of this wastewater treatment system. Another issue is that large calcium deposits can eventually stop up the drain field and lead to poor drainage. 

All municipalities in the U.S. require a permit for septic tank installation or septic system alteration, and the permit will usually cost between $450 and $2,500. Some municipalities also require permits for septic system repair. You’ll either need to contact your local building department or your septic tank company to ask if this is necessary before carrying out the work. Permits are not typically required to have your septic tank pumped, so provided your septic company is licensed, you can move forward with the work as needed.

Baking soda can help neutralize a septic smell. If the pH balance inside your tank is off, it can emit a sulfurous odor that resembles rotten eggs. Pour one cup of baking soda down your toilet once a week to help neutralize your septic tank. If you want to increase the bacteria in your septic tank, add three rotten tomatoes to your septic tank through your garbage disposal. You can do this once every three months.

The septic installation company must follow several steps to put in a new septic system and leach field. The installer will study your property and determine the best place for the tank and leach field. The site should be away from existing structures, be free of trees, and have proper drainage and grading. Preparing the site for the tank and leach field will require significant excavation work.

There are a lot of issues that can cause a septic tank to collapse. Those include failing to regularly pump or service it every three to five years, placing too much weight atop the system—by parking your car on top of it or because of a heavy snow buildup for instance—or because of structural damage done by overgrown tree roots.
