"I was very pleased with the people I worked with to complete this project. I had an issue with my septic pipes and JCB informed me of the best way to address it, gave me a very reasonable estimate and stuck to it, even though they had to do more than they anticipated, including drilling through my foundation. I would highly recommend this service!!"

"Woody, Craig, and the team were great to work with and did an excellent job replacing my septic system. They were very responsive and communicated throughout the project. They were transparent about all pricing and honest. They did a great job with the install and the finish landscaping they did was more than I could have expected. I highly recommend them, they are busy for a good reason."

"The technician replaced my bad expansion tank hydronic heating system. He used a drain valve to release the water. The valve leaked afterward, he said that was not his responsibility because it is old. That I understand, but he should have explained to me beforehand that was a possibility. He did not check the pressure of my hydronic system and the expansion tank factory pressure. He installed the tank with the air nipple facing toward the wall and it is harder for me to service the expanse tank. The price was a little high for the work."

"I had a wonderful experience with Delfino construction. They have completely transformed my house and property with a new drainage system and sump pump rendering my basement to be DRY! Also a new septic tank and leech field along with beautiful rock walls and U shaped driveway. The knowledge and attention to detail made our whole experience very comforting we couldn’t be happier with the turnout. Thankyou so much!"

"Steve was great to work with. Easy to talk to, understood what I wanted, knew what to do. Quality of the work is excellent. Price is very fair. I've recommended him to some friends who are also having issues with low water pressure in the City of Newport, RI. (we all live near the high point in Newport, so we get the lowest pressure).
I would recommend Steve and use him again.

"The guys from Dennis Diffley assessed the cause of the issue right away, went above and beyond in helping me locate where the plumbing clean out was located (I purchased my home with a finished basement), and educated me through every step of the process to help me prevent the problem for the future. Given how they needed to snake through the main line of the plumbing, they worked about as quickly as could be expected, and cleaned up after themselves. Their price came in a couple hundred dollars less than a larger competitor. These guys were great!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Well water is often assumed to be hard because of its high mineral content. Hard water can lead to mineral build-up in your pipes and appliances. You can manage hard water by installing a whole-house filter system. These systems can help extend the life of your water-reliant appliances like your hot water tank and dishwasher. 

Having a well means that a household’s water supply, including water that comes through faucets, showerheads, and appliances, is supplied through a private source rather than from a city. The well pulls fresh water from an underground water supply, such as an aquifer, and the well pump pushes the water from the well to your household.

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.

Most septic tanks need to be emptied every 3 to 5 years, but it’s a good idea to monitor the fill levels of your septic tank all the time. You can do this by installing a pressure level sensor to detect the internal tank pressure, or by having a septic tank company perform an annual inspection to let you know when you’ll need to pump the tank.

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.
