"Conner did an amazing job locating the problems with a collapsed sewer pipe. He dug up and repaired 2 breaks in the line. He also installed 2 new risers over the inlet and outlet. He was very professional and did the job on time as described. I highly recommend him for any issues with septic or drain pipes."

"I just pay $75 you never know who's going to come out. They do everything electrical. Just about everything is covered except the septic tank. I had an air conditioner replaced. It went great, all I had to do was pay for the freon. He didn't charge e more than what was needed."

Hello, my name is Matthew Mulholland and I’m the owner operator of First Call Plumbing and Service LLC. With 13 years in the plumbing and excavation trade, it was time to start my own, and have the ability to correct the unpopular aspects of your typical plumbing business. Times are changing and the trades are growing so it’s time plumbing gets a new name. It’s not all about sewage and dirt and laying under a sink. It’s about meeting new customer, building relationships with customers and building a name with integrity, loyalty, and dependability. At my young age of 30 years old. I’ve set out to change the way people view plumbing and look at a plumber. With education and brains first.

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

If your septic tank is still within its expected lifespan and you need to relocate it on your property, it's possible to do so. However, because the task is so labor-intensive and costly, most homeowners simply choose to abandon the old tank if possible and install a new system in the new location. In either case, hiring a professional installation company will be necessary for the job. 

If there’s a problem with your sewage system, you might notice water pooling on the ground around the tank, which could indicate an overflow. Clogged and sluggish drains or foul smells coming from your plumbing are also signs that there might be a blockage in your septic system.

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

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

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.
