"Designed and installed new septic. Job was challenging (water table, very rocky digging). Did an excellent job, and worked with me to use rocks and boulders dug up to finish grading/landscaping nicely. Very happy with work."

"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."

"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!"

"This is the 3rd time we've had Stephen over to fix something, the previous two being a drain clog after our septic tank was pumped and a leaky copper pipe in our basement ceiling (waste line from the kitchen).  All three times he has responded to my calls at least on the same day if not answering directly, and was great about scheduling.  I don't think the guy ever takes a break.  He checked out this leak on a Saturday after we called on Thursday evening (it was a slow drip that was collecting under our shower that we didn't deem an emergency) and after finding the cause of the leak, came back Monday after a full day and did the valve rebuild at around 5:30 pm.  All three times he was extremely professional, prompt with responses, punctual, and personable (the 4 P's), as well as offering competitive pricing.  We couldn't be happier with the services he has provided us with.

"We initially called on Friday and were advised to contact a local septic pumping company before they would come out.  This was a bit surprising but it had been a couple of years since our last pump and we were probably due.  We had the tank pumped by another company, but that did not resolve the issue (and the septic guy said the tank was not overfilled), so we called Diffley back.  They promptly sent out 2 techs who cleared out the pipe and restored our system to normal.  They were prompt, quick and professional.  I do wish they'd come out when we first called but since we probably needed a pumping anyway it was not a big deal.  We will call them again if we experience any future issues.

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Baking soda does very little to nothing for a septic tank, but it can help unclog a drain or clean out a garbage disposal. Rotten tomatoes and yeast are the best ways to increase the bacteria in your septic tank naturally. You can add these to your system once every three months.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

You can add three rotten tomatoes or 1/4 ounce of yeast to your septic tank to speed up the decomposition of sludge. You can add the tomatoes by way of your garbage disposal and the yeast by way of your toilet. You can do either of these additives once every three months as needed.

The septic installation company must follow several steps to put in a new septic system and leach field. The installer will study your property and determine the best place for the tank and leach field. The site should be away from existing structures, be free of trees, and have proper drainage and grading. Preparing the site for the tank and leach field will require significant excavation work.

To determine the right size for your submersible well pump, find your well depth, water demand, and well casing diameter. The pump should match your well's specifications and meet or exceed your drawdown and pressure requirements. 

For precise sizing, make sure to research the different well pump sizes, consult the manufacturer's recommendations, or seek guidance from a professional well pump installer.
