"My first contact came with my call to the receptionist who handled my call with a pleasant attitude.
I had some problems with my toilet and I wanted to use a professional in hopes that it would prevent a reoccurrence. I needed an appointment the next day, I was called promptly and I confirmed the next day. I asked the receptionist some general questions about what was covered using the full service inspection certificate, she politely explained each part of the inspection, and I was satisfied.
My appointment was for 0900, my technician arrived at 0845. He was professional and explained what he was checking for and labeled valves for water shutoff, heating and hot water heater. I eventually did not need any work on my toilet, he turned a valve and it was back in operation!  The sump pump inspection was the most informative for me, my outside hose was frozen solid and was no longer pumping out water!! This was a great day for me, he did the maintenance and my sump pump is working right! I would recommend Levine& Sons to anybody, I will use them again. i already have estimates on replacing the sump pump and connections.

Septic Tanks FAQs, 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. 

Most professionals recommend that a deep well pump shouldn’t run more than 10 hours consecutively before cycling off. Overworking the well pump beyond the recommended amount can prematurely wear out your pump and burn out the motor, which means replacing it more often than you otherwise should need to. Your well pump should also come with the manufacturer’s use and maintenance recommendations that are specific to the model.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

Ideally, you should conduct a mechanical inspection and a bacterial or well water inspection yearly. While you might be able to push it off to every other year, it’s best to have peace of mind, especially when it comes to something that you use so frequently. 

If you experience repeated gastrointestinal illness in the household, it's important to test the well water more regularly for quality and cleanliness to check for bacteria.

Over time, your septic tank can accumulate a buildup of sludge at the bottom of the tank. If left unpumped and uncleaned, the sludge will back up into your pipes and home, causing failure and extensive (and smelly) damage. Repairs to your septic system can be costly, which is why regular maintenance is required. It takes about 30 minutes to pump a septic tank that’s 1,250 gallons or less or 1 hour for larger varieties.
