We also offer grease trap cleaning services and planned preventative maintenance.

"Extremely customer service experience. The representative I dealt with was not only unhelpful but also came across. As both judgmental and lacking professionalism when I asked clear questions about pricing I received vague misleading answers. They scheduled an appointment that I had agreed upon for one o'clock pm but no one show up or call. Instead I received a text for 1 o'clock pm.; When I called to let them know The situation and the pricing they have changed their answer from 1 -3pm and told me that there was a fee that would be applied. When I asked a follow up question the Rep. hung up on me. The overall behavior was unprofessional and extremely biased based on demographic that they choose not to served. I would expect more transparency, respect and communication."

"Work was never done. Contractor was dispatched by Choice Home Warrenty. Arrived late. Charged me for 2 service calls ($130.00) instead of just one as specified by Choice Home Warrenty. Technician submitted the work orders and they were approved. Technician never called Choice oe me to schedule the work. This all began on June 8th. Calls have been made to the technician by Choice and have never been returned. As far as I'm concerned I have had $130 stolen from me by a disreputable and dishonest company. He could not provide a receipt so I took a photo of his Nondriver ID (yes he drove here). 10 days later and still no contact. I will not recommend this company. I will file a complaint with the BBB and have logged a complaint with Choice Home Warrenty as well."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Most home wells start at 100 feet, and many go as deep as 200 or 300 feet

It takes quite a lot of water to meet the demands of showers, toilets, faucets, and appliances like dishwashers and laundry machines, and shallow wells struggle to provide this amount quickly. If you anticipate having high water usage in the future, it’s often better to drill slightly deeper and give yourself a bit more water storage than you need.

A septic tank should be emptied about once every two to three years. The number of people in your household and the size of your tank can influence how often to pump the septic tank. The average septic tank size is about 1,250 gallons, so anything smaller may need to be pumped once every year or two.

Cesspools can last up to 40 years. Their lifespan depends on the materials used, soil conditions, and maintenance of the pit. In many areas, cesspools are no longer permitted, so it’s often a good idea to get rid of a cesspool that’s at the end of its lifespan.

If your septic tank is still within its expected lifespan and you need to relocate it on your property, it's possible to do so. However, because the task is so labor-intensive and costly, most homeowners simply choose to abandon the old tank if possible and install a new system in the new location. In either case, hiring a professional installation company will be necessary for the job. 

Septic tank risers are indeed a wise choice for homeowners. They provide easy access to your septic tank, streamlining maintenance and inspection processes while potentially saving you money in the long term on multiple excavation jobs. With risers in place, you can proactively address septic issues before they escalate into costly problems, ensuring the longevity of your system. Moreover, compliance with local regulations that require risers can prevent fines or penalties, making them a valuable addition to any septic system.
