"Hired Ericson twice. First experience was great but pricy. Tank had filled above the pipe so while others I called were only charging $350, Ericson answered the phone that evening and had someone out next day. I was quoted $450 on the phone, charged $650. This was on 9/3/26. By 9/28/26 my tank had filled again so figured a jet was needed. Called Ericson back, next day service. The techs figured the out pipe was where the jet was needed. The hose only went in 6 feet then hit a "blockage." Nothing more they could do, no jet. Charged $350 for a jet. They offered to drain the septic again for another $650 but would not fix the issue. Dug ourselves that evening and found out the techs were hitting a T junction, not blockage. My issue with the service is the techs called the owner who said they had spent too much time on a $650 clean out and needed to leave. In one month, I've spent $1,000 with them, have the same issue I started with and been told my job isn't worth the time."

"Impressed is an understatement! I called Apex when my mom's water heater went out and the company her home warranty sent couldn't repair the shut off valve. They came within 1.5 hours of me calling and were amazing. They repaired the shut off valve and took the time to explain everything. We were so impressed we had them install the new hot water tank instead of using the home warranty company. Charles was able to do everything the same day and worked around the water mitigation company. He was so professional and did a great job. We will definitely be using them for all our future plumbing needs!"

"My hot water tank went out on a Saturday and K Dee Hauling and Remodeling was available on Sunday, without a surcharge. He arrived Sunday afternoon, as scheduled, removed my old tank and installed a new Rheem unit. Excellent service, professional, and friendly. No hidden fees, no up charges. I would highly recommend using this plumbing company."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

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.

If you notice a septic smell in the house, you can either call a septic system repair company or a plumber. These professionals have the proper licenses and equipment to investigate the pipes and septic tank while keeping your family safe from sewage gas exposure and raw sewage leaks. They will be able to find the problem as soon as possible and get it fixed so that your home can get back to smelling fresh again.

Soda, coffee, and other soft drinks are highly acidic. This affects the pH in septic tanks, causing them to require more frequent pumping. However, a vast majority of people don't need to worry about septic system disruption. Pouring out the occasional flat soda doesn’t affect septic systems to the same degree as the high-volume dumping from restaurants and convenience stores.

A septic alarm can sound different depending on your system, but often, it’s a loud, repetitive beeping noise or a steady, high-pitched noise. It may also be a loud buzzing noise. To confirm the noise is your septic alarm, check your alarm box for a red light. You can also silence your alarm with a red button or switch on the box. Look for something that says “Test” or “Mute.”

Age is certainly a factor in well pump failure. The older your pump, the more likely it is to fail. 

Beyond age, other factors can cause your well pump to fail, too. Things like poor water quality can cause sediment buildup in your pump. Without proper cleaning, your pump can seize up and fail. Having a dry well for too long can also cause your pump to fail, as it keeps working even though there's no water for it to pull.
