"We had a collapsed septic tank according to our home inspection. Bill Farley saw the urgency and had the tank replaced as soon as possible (a couple of weeks). He not only replaced the tank .. he repiped the inlets/outlets where the previous local company who serviced the tank had done it wrong. Bill was easy to deal with, fair and gets the job done the first time. Process was not stressful .. they takes care of everything and leave things better than before."

"Thankfully I had a mutual friend introduced me to Mike Lakin prior to starting my project. I needed to correct drainage on a commercial property I have on route 206. I previously hired an engineer and different contractor whose prices for theproject were more than triple the cost of what Mike charged. I also would like to add a lot less invasive and a lot less time involved. Thanks Mike"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

On average, septic systems last between 15 and 20 years. However, with proper care and routine septic maintenance, you may be able to extend your septic system’s life span to 30 years (or more). Some ways to keep your system in tip-top shape include scheduling a professional inspection every two to five years and reducing the flow of wastewater into your system.

Certain foods are easier on your septic tank than others. Septic-safe foods include yogurt, fruit, cooked veggies, and bread because these items all break down relatively easily and can pass through your system safely. Rotten tomatoes, specifically, are actually good for your septic tank because they can increase the amount of good bacteria in the system. 

A submersible pump should be at least 10 feet from the bottom of the well to minimize the risk of the pump drawing debris into the well water. Submersible pumps work best for wells that are 25 feet deep or less. If you have a deeper well, choose a jet pump instead of a submersible model.

Ensuring you have adequate space for your engineered septic system is crucial. You’ll need to reserve approximately 900 square feet for a three-bedroom home’s system. However, the type of soil you have, soil absorption rate, the size of your home, climate, and local zoning code will impact the actual amount of space you need.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), septic tanks must be located a decent distance from places subject to flooding or surface ponding. Additionally, septic tanks should be installed on level ground so that the waste can properly settle in the tank. Most tanks are located 10 to 20 feet away from the home. More specific requirements vary by location, so call a local septic pro or your local health department for more information.
