"They did great work, in a timely manner, and it was great being able to leave it in their hands. He took the time to consult with me on how we could decommission my previous septic system, laid everything out and made himself available for questions, and then I was allowed to make an informed decision. That is just the kind of excellent customer service I needed considering it was a big job requiring extensive digging in order to set up a new drain field and tank for my septic. Definitely a great experience working with Nathan. I was so impressed I hired them for a second, smaller, project and I have offered to let them put a sign in my yard they did such a great job. I highly highly recommend them."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

Unfortunately, yes. If your well pump continues working when the flow of water is completely blocked, the motor will burn up. The energy has nowhere to go, thanks to the blockage, so it turns inward. The end result? A ruined well pump and a depleted bank account (once you shop for a replacement.) 

All municipalities in the U.S. require a permit for septic tank installation or septic system alteration, and the permit will usually cost between $450 and $2,500. Some municipalities also require permits for septic system repair. You’ll either need to contact your local building department or your septic tank company to ask if this is necessary before carrying out the work. Permits are not typically required to have your septic tank pumped, so provided your septic company is licensed, you can move forward with the work as needed.

DIY is not recommended due to safety and technical requirements. Hire professionals for accurate diagnosis and repair.

With proper maintenance, most types of septic systems—including mound, evapotranspiration, and constructed wetland systems—can last up to 40 years. To keep your system running as long as possible, follow basic septic tank upkeep guidelines, like pumping your septic tank every three to five years and only flushing human waste and toilet paper.

Most professionals recommend that a deep well pump shouldn’t run more than 10 hours consecutively before cycling off. Overworking the well pump beyond the recommended amount can prematurely wear out your pump and burn out the motor, which means replacing it more often than you otherwise should need to. Your well pump should also come with the manufacturer’s use and maintenance recommendations that are specific to the model.
