Our office is small but very efficient, you'll actually get to speak to a real person and not a machine. Our office is open 9am-5pm week days and 9am-2pm Saturdays but when the office is closed, calls are forwarded directly to the Owner's mobile phone! You will always be taken care of immediately, 24 hours/7 days a week. In addition to plumbing, we offer customized water treatment options, such as water softeners, iron breakers, purified water systems, bacteria removal systems and well services. We also do bathroom renovations. No job is too big or too small.

"Just like some the other comments….Extremely unprofessional customer service person who answers the phone, interrupted several times and hung up on me. If you have a problem with their work won’t help you. Even when I inquired about warranty of their work I got a rude attitude.DO NOT RECOMMEND"

Company offers services including but not limited to: General excavation and demolition Land clearing Forestry / tree removal Grading Landscape construction / repairs Driveway Construction / repairs Pool fill-ins / removals

"Mike Trotta (the owner) came and removed my deck personally and was great to work with. He was prompt and reliable and had the deck removed and hauled off to the city dump by noon. His asking price was extremely reasonable and he was very quick and cleaned up all of the deck plus removed the anchoring beams even though they were concreted into the ground. I was extremely pleased and would recommend his company Viking Earthworks to anyone looking for similar services!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

The main difference between a mound septic system and a conventional one is that the drain field in a mound system is built up into a mound composed of sand and gravel to increase the filtration time the wastewater sees before it is returned to the aquifer. There’s also a significant cost difference, with mound systems typically costing far more than standard septic systems.

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.

Neither system is necessarily better or worse than the other, but one of the two might be better for your needs. For example, anaerobic systems are less expensive than aerobic ones and don’t use power to run. On the other hand, aerobic septic systems don’t take up as much space and are typically more efficient than their anaerobic counterparts.

A septic tank needs to be pumped once every three years on average. However, every septic tank has different needs, and the proper service interval for your system may be every five years, or as frequent as an annual pump-out. Consult with your installer about the proper interval and what to expect regarding the cost of septic tank pumping.

Your toilet will still flush if the septic tank is full, but it might flush more slowly. It may make gurgling sounds as the wastewater slowly drains through the pipes. You may also notice the toilet clogs up more frequently when the septic tank is full, although this can also be a sign of other plumbing issues, like a clog in the pipes.
