"Bill was great from the get go, he came right over and gave us solid professional advice on what we would need to do and how to go about it. Once it was determined that we would need to replace the septic tank which was an old metal tank that not only had not been used for more than 25 years, it was on the verge of completely failing. Bill took care of everything with the county board of health and the township who required a larger tank than the county. Our install turned to be a lot more work than he originally bargained for. He did not anticipate the amount of buried rock (large- boulders) in the area needed to enlarge a hole for the new 1500 gallon tank. He ultimately hauled out 5 loads of rock (boulders) and had to bring in several loads of crushed cement for fill to replace the boulders and to fill in and around the new tank, level up under and around the new lateral line to seepage pit. Bill was a total professional from start to finish, even with the set back caused by all of the stone, he was able to get right into the project and get the installation completed, since it did not require any new engineering or an expanded field he was able to get the inspection done right away which allowed us to keep the house on the market, and hopefully a new owner will be able to utilize the new system and enjoy the home for many years to come. I would highly recommend William (Bill) Farley Septic Services to anyone looking for a professional septic contractor any day of the week..."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

To prevent septic tank problems, save on repair costs, and keep your home running smoothly, it's essential to perform regular maintenance. Have your septic system inspected by a professional every one to three years, or annually if possible, to spot potential issues before they develop. You should also have your tank pumped every three to five years, or more frequently if recommended by a professional based on your household's usage. Additionally, be mindful of what goes into your system. Avoid flushing items like paper towels, wet wipes, and feminine hygiene products. Do not dispose of other inappropriate substances, and try to avoid excessive water usage at a single time.

Septic systems typically require servicing every 3-5 years, but frequency varies according to household size and tank capacity.

Your septic tank may be full or clogged if you notice household drains that are backed up, draining slowly, or gurgling; greener, lusher grass around the septic system; pooling water in your yard; or smelling sewage odors outdoors. You can contact a local septic tank pro to inspect your septic system and pump your tank.

Depending on local conditions, a deep well may be a better choice than a shallow well. Deeper well depth accesses groundwater that has been naturally filtered through many layers of soil and rock. This reduces surface contaminants and may offer cleaner water, but deep wells cost more money to build and maintain. The water may be harder and have higher radioactivity, too. 

To determine the right size for your submersible well pump, find your well depth, water demand, and well casing diameter. The pump should match your well's specifications and meet or exceed your drawdown and pressure requirements. 

For precise sizing, make sure to research the different well pump sizes, consult the manufacturer's recommendations, or seek guidance from a professional well pump installer.
