"Iâ ve read the reviews on this company and everyone has rated them 5 stars. I donâ t understand this. We are nearly a month in trying to get septic plans and I still donâ t have them. They tell me a date. The next week I call, of course no one ever answer the phone, I get and email saying itâ s going to be longer. Soil test was already completed we talking plans only. In the time Iâ ve been waiting for the plans, Iâ ve already paid for so I can obtain a permit through Jackson County, the house could have had the slab poured and the entire house framed. No joke. I could be running electrical now but instead Iâ m still waiting for them to draw plans so I can get a permit Good luck. Maybe donâ t pay them upfront."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Septic leach lines are buried between 18 and 36 inches into the ground and are at least 6 inches under its surface. Keeping leach lines buried helps minimize odors, and it helps the system utilize bacteria and biological processes both underground and from the air to further treat and filter the wastewater.

You can find your septic tank using a few different methods. For one, you can check your property records at your local municipal office. You can also inspect your yard looking for a depression, a septic tank lid, or lush septic-area vegetation which would indicate a leach field. You can also follow your pipes from the home to the yard. If you can't find your septic tank on your own, a local septic pro can help.

Most cesspools are buried about 1 to 3 feet below ground. The cesspool itself can be between 8 to 10 feet deep, with an average capacity of 750 to 1,250 gallons. If you’re planning to fill in a cesspool, be prepared by knowing the size of your original tank so you can buy the appropriate amount of soil.

A septic tank lasts 15 to 20 years on average. This life span will vary depending on the type of septic system and the materials used. Clogging caused by plant roots or flooding from groundwater can decrease that life span. To avoid these issues, have a pro inspect your tank regularly and perform routine maintenance, such as pumping out the tank.

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.
