"I hired Art to help level out my backyard, and unfortunately, I had a really disappointing experience. He started the job but left it incomplete and in worse shape than when he began. The yard was left uneven and messy, with piles of dirt scattered around and no clear plan for finishing. Communication was poor throughout, and despite several follow-ups, he never returned to complete the work. I regret hiring him and wouldn?t recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable or thorough job. "

"I had an outstanding experience working with Zach and Breaking Ground Earthworks! Zach handled a big job for us—removing old retaining walls, regrading the slope of our yard, prepping the area for new landscaping, and replacing an outdated drainage system. He also took care of a few stubborn stumps left behind from previous tree removals. His work was not only thorough and precise, but he was also professional, efficient, and clearly very experienced. The site was always left clean and organized, and communication throughout the project was excellent. I was impressed with the transformation and the quality of Zach’s work. Highly recommend him for any excavation or site prep needs—you’ll be in great hands!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Deciding between an engineered septic system and a conventional one depends on property size, soil quality, local regulations, and environmental factors. If your property has limited space, poor soil, or is close to sensitive environmental features, an engineered system may be required. Professional site evaluations, considering water usage, long-term plans, and budget constraints, can help determine the appropriate choice. Consulting with a septic system professional is crucial for ensuring compliance with regulations and selecting the best system for your property's unique needs.

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.

The best way to keep a septic tank clean is to hire a local septic tank cleaner to inspect and pump the septic tank every three to five years. Be sure to only flush human waste and toilet paper down the toilet, and don’t pour grease, oil, fats, coffee grounds, or food scraps into your drains.

Baking soda can help neutralize a septic smell. If the pH balance inside your tank is off, it can emit a sulfurous odor that resembles rotten eggs. Pour one cup of baking soda down your toilet once a week to help neutralize your septic tank. If you want to increase the bacteria in your septic tank, add three rotten tomatoes to your septic tank through your garbage disposal. You can do this once every three months.

Pumping your septic tank is vital maintenance. You’ll typically need to have your septic tank pumped about every three to five years when the tank is full. This is a routine maintenance task that can easily be handled by a septic tank company near you. They can also provide regular inspections to make sure all the parts of your septic system are working properly.
