"They truly live by the code of "you get what you paid for". The price was cheaper than expected (and they included a free estimate too). So ultimately, our slow bathtub drain was cleared. However, the technician had terrible housekeeping. After stripping the caulking around the overflow valve, they left the caulking pieces in the bathtub and told us to flush them down the drain (?!). They said the provided bio solution would clear the pieces just fine...but why do that when a trash can is less than a foot away?? Then, they did not offer to reseal the valve they just opened...just left a mess for us to pick up. As such, we will not be using them again next time...free estimate or not. If we wanted the bare minimum, we would have done it ourselves."

"I had another company design my septic system replacement, but Paul re-designed it to avoid having to remove a 50+ ft tall tree and added a drainage system for the water from the gutters. The old no-longer-up-to-code 2-cesspool septic system was replaced by a drainfield and Ecoflow septic tank. The work was done on the days I was told workers would be here (unlike the company that drew up the first set of specs), and Paul and Jon were always friendly and great to work with."

"John Gordon, GGI Construction, is a nightmare. He went into a livable house and turned it into an unlivable one. He started the project by attempting to circumvent the cities permit process. Once the city caught him he pulled the wrong permit. Soon after he had the property with 2 violations. He removed all copper pipes and heating system, and that wasn't part of the contract, and in doing so he cut a main electric line to the kitchen that will have to be replaced. And we had to put a new HVAC system in the house. He destroyed the water main, which leaked for about 6 months, flooding parts of the basement. He removed bathroom fixtures on the 2nd floor without turning the water supply completely off, flooding, and destroying, beautiful hardwood floors on the 1st floor. He installed new windows improperly making them inoperable. He left mountains of trash and debris in the yard. He destroyed newer kitchen cabinets he was supposed to refinish. He had a new roof installed that was deemed worthless and has to be done again. His crew urinated into open drains making the house smell like a sewer. His crew smoked in the house extinguishing cigarettes on, and burning, the hardwood floors. These are just the highlights. He finally abandoned the contract, and project, leaving us with a property that is unsellable, and stealing $80,000 from us. He has a criminal past for a weapon violation. DO NOT HIRE THIS PERSON. You will regret it."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

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 tank should be emptied approximately once every three to five years, though this frequency will vary depending on your water usage, the size of your tank, how many people are in your home, and other factors. A maintenance plan for your septic system may be useful for professional emptying and inspection of other important parts.

The efficacy of a drain field depends on a wide variety of factors, though a well-maintained one can last as long as 40 or 50 years. Of the different types of septic tanks on the market, concrete and plastic tanks tend to last the longest—upwards of 40 years if they’re pumped regularly—while steel tanks have a tendency to rust over time and may need to be replaced after 15 or 20 years.

Saving money on property taxes and having direct control over your waste system are both pros when buying a house with a septic tank. However, it’s easier on the house and the yard if a home can be hooked up to a municipal system, which is why septic tanks are best for homes where that isn’t an option. Expensive repairs, potential odor issues, and regular maintenance are all cons of septic systems. 

Installation necessitates professional expertise due to complexity and to ensure safety when handling waste.
