"Bosley Drain and Septic did a wonderful job from the very first phone call all the way through job completion. Communication was clear and professional, they showed up when they said they would and they took the time to explain everything throughout the process. The work was done efficiently and with care, and the job site was left clean when they were finished. It’s hard to find a company that’s this reliable and easy to work with. I would absolutely recommend Bosley Drain and Septic to anyone needing septic work."

"Jon and his son did exactly what they contracted with me to do. That was an entire septic system replacement. When I received his estimate and scope of work I crossed checked with other companies and the county to ensure that he was meeting the proper standards and codes required. Everything checked out. They were very conscious of neighbors and the township who happened to be resurfacing the street at the time. I would recommend JND without hesitation."

"The leach bed restoration process was a good option for our almost 60 year old septic system, in lieu of replacing the whole system. Joe and his crew certainly seemed to know what they were doing. It is too early to tell whether this process cured our problem, but I am optimistic that it may have, after seeing what the crew did."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

The best times of year to pump or empty a septic tank are spring and fall. Many professionals recommend spring because the ground has thawed, making the tank easier to access, and any snowmelt or rainfall can aid in proper drainage. Pumping before summer is also ideal to avoid conflicts with vacations or outdoor gatherings.

Fall is another great option, as contractors may be less busy than in the spring. Servicing the tank in late fall or early spring can also reduce the risk of overflow from extra precipitation during winter and spring.

While summer is a possibility, winter is generally not recommended. The ground is often frozen, which can make it difficult to access the tank, and the waste inside may also be frozen.

Although cesspits may be necessary depending on your main sewage system access or nearby soil quality, they carry a few drawbacks. Cesspools require regular emptying and have relatively high maintenance and pumping costs. Certain areas also disallow the use of cesspools and may require you to cover the cost of existing cesspools to be converted into septic tanks.

Septic tank locations are sometimes public record, although it depends on local laws and the property age. Older properties may not have the septic tank information on public record. To check, you can talk to local permitting agencies, such as your local health department, the local environmental department, or the county clerk.

The easiest thing you can do to prolong the life of your septic system is to adopt septic-safe practices. This includes not flushing non-biodegradable items, chemicals, or excessive grease down drains and scheduling regular septic tank pumping to prevent buildup. It’s also important to fix plumbing leaks promptly and to practice water conservation to avoid overloading the system. To maintain your drain field, avoid heavy vehicle traffic and plant shallow-rooted vegetation in the area. Most importantly, invest in routine inspections and maintenance to detect and address issues early.

Drain fields often include three to five trenches that are 18 to 24 inches deep. The pipes connecting the drain field to the septic tank will be placed between 12 and 18 inches deep, and the field as a whole will be about 100 feet long.
