"I contacted Great Bear through Angie's List and they were very responsive. Calling them to set an appointment was a little bit more difficult - but maybe because I called early. I called again and got through and made an appointment. Due to a backup in appointments, they were unable to come the first time around, but said they would come the next morning. They came on time then and discounted the rate since they were unable to make it the previous day. I wasn't there in person, but my husband dealt with Mike the owner and said he was friendly, professional and put the dirt with grass back over the hole (which the previous septic company we dealt with had not even tried to fix). Will definitely hire again in the future."

"They called within minutes of my posting on Home Advisor. Sent someone that afternoon even though it was Saturday, gave a reasonable price and asked if I needed repair made immediately because he had an emergency to handle some miles away but would return in a few hours. Office called to say his emergency was taking longer than planned but he would return on Sunday. He did late Sunday morning and made repair."

"We had a clogged gray water line that was causing water to back up and come out of the floor drains in our basement and soak the floor. It was an older house and we weren’t sure how the drainage pipes were set up. Gualtieri first helped us troubleshoot the problem and recommended an expert snake/drain company to unclog and video the entire gray water drainage line. Really, really good idea and gave us a concrete map of what was underground. Among other things, it turned out there was also a rainwater leader feeding into the same washing machine drainage pipe as well as gray water from our a bathroom shower/tub and sink inside the house. Gualtieri helped us devise a plan to reroute the bathroom water in the basement (to our septic) as well as the rainwater leader outside (to a new dedicated rainwater pipe). Once we figured this all out and had the necessary plumbing done, Gualtieri installed a 660-gallon dry well. They did the dry well install in one, short day with just the two brother/owners, no other workmen. Jim ran the digger with expert care. He minimized disrupting shrubs, trees, ground cover, and moved one large bush and delicately worked around another. He patiently discussed with me the best plan for the dug-up dirt (which was the biggest technical challenge) and came up with a perfect solution which included moving a couple of large piles of sticks and dead branches. The work done was right alongside our driveway and they did not leave a single mark on the asphalt, nothing. They threw grass seed on the bare ground and two-weeks later it’s like they never were here. Jim and Dan are not only extremely competent at what they do, they are also honest, straight-forward, do not BS, and are genuinely nice guys. We feel lucky to have found them!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

A gurgling toilet usually doesn’t mean that your septic tank is full. If waste can’t drain into a full septic tank, you’ll see water and sewage backing up into your fixtures, but the air that causes gurgling is a result of poor venting. You are more likely to have a clog in your vent stack or a damaged air admittance valve.

Your septic tank naturally contains the beneficial bacteria it needs to function, so you typically don't need to add more. However, if you wish to replenish the bacteria, you can use natural methods. For example, you can add three overripe tomatoes to your garbage disposal or flush 1/4 ounce of active yeast down the toilet every three months. While store-bought septic enzymes and chemicals are available, many experts consider them unnecessary and potentially harmful. The most effective way to maintain a healthy bacteria population is to avoid using chemical drain cleaners, which can kill the good bacteria in your system.

We’ve explained how deep-rooted plants can damage a septic tank from the outside, but plenty of things can ruin it from the inside, too. For example, flushing bulky items (like paper towels, diapers, and wipes) can clog your septic tank. Cooking oil, grease, and household chemicals can also harm your system. And since a new septic system costs between $3,460 and $11,450, it’s worth following these guidelines.

A new water well pressure tank costs $300 to $500. If you choose to hire a plumber for the job, expect labor to cost $125 to $200. If the tank is difficult to access, labor will cost more. Diaphragm and bladder well pressure tanks have similar costs. One-compartment well pressure tanks are less costly, but they have a higher chance of waterlogging. Larger pressure tanks cost more and hold more water, but they don’t increase water pressure.

Yes, septic tank companies must be licensed in most states and municipalities to perform services like installation, alteration, repair, and pumping. Since laws vary by location, it's crucial to check local requirements.

Hiring an unlicensed professional can lead to poor work, code violations, and significant fines. Always verify that your chosen company is properly licensed and fully insured to avoid liability. You can use tools like Angi’s contractor licensing search to check a pro's credentials.

It's also helpful to understand the difference between licensing and certification. A license is a legal requirement to operate, while certifications are voluntary. Credentials like the “Angi Approved” badge indicate that a business meets extra standards, such as passing a background check and maintaining a high rating.
