"The first time, Feb. 2016, we called All American we were very happy. They fixed our problem in a timely manner and were fairly easy to work with. However, when our problem came back 10 months later and we contacted them for assistance, they were immediately defensive, refusing any warranty, were late arriving, and hard to get on the phone. After coming by and trying to pump the tank in the dark when they couldn't inspect the system, we asked them to please come back the when there was enough light. They explained they could do that but it would cost us MORE than what we paid the first time. Then it was very difficult to get them to answer the phone to reschedule. We never minded paying to get the system fixed, but did think they lacked professionalism. Ultimately we found another company that fixed the solution at a very good rate and in good time."

"I had a great experience with William Parrish Plumbing. Our 20 year old hot water heater started leaking on Sunday night (not an immediate emergency, but something we wanted addressed soon) and they came out Monday morning to check it out. Nahu was wonderful and thoroughly explained everything. He was able to quickly install a new, quality Rheem tank. He happily answered all my questions and took the time to make sure everything was working properly before he left. He insisted on wearing booties inside my home to keep everything clean and left the garage better than he found it. I also felt the price was fair. William Parrish Plumbing will be my first call for future plumbing issues. I enthusiastically recommend them! Thank you!"

"They do not disturb the grassy area around the septic always careful to remove the cover and place in where it will not damage the area around there work. I have been using this company for at least 25 plus years and would recommend them to everyone who has a septic system or grease trap."

"Neuse River Septic was awesome. We didn't really know where the septic tank was. It took a little while to locate it but Joe and his wife were excellent. Very patient, very professional, very sweet. It's a family owned business. I would highly recommend them."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Although air in your water lines won’t affect the overall quality of your water, it will lead to problems with your well water system if not addressed. Over time, too much air in your water lines can create blockages in your pipes, cause insufficient water flow to your taps and appliances, loosen pipes, and potentially damage important components of your well including your well pump and pressure tank. 

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.

Yes, shower water goes into the septic tank. Shower water is a type of greywater, and in fact, all water used in a home with a septic system—including water from sinks, toilets, the dishwasher, and the washing machine—drains into the tank. When shower water enters the tank, debris like soap and hair travels with it. The solid debris sinks to the bottom to become sludge, while soap residue joins the scum layer at the top. The remaining water is treated in the tank before moving to the drain field for further treatment and dispersal. It is important to avoid putting oil or harsh chemicals down any drain, as they can cause clogs or disrupt the beneficial bacteria required for proper wastewater management in the septic system.

Modern septic tanks have two lids: one that covers the inlet where wastewater flows into the tank and one that covers the outlet where the treated water flows out to the drain field. However, older septic tanks installed before 1975 may have only one lid. Because septic tanks last 20 to 40 years, if yours only has one lid, it may be time for a replacement.

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.
