"I cannot put into words how thankful I am to have hired Delfino (Robert & Ariana) to level a section of my yard and add a gravel pad for a shed being built. They are super responsive, friendly, and more than fair. Saying I have a complicated yard is an understatement. I’ve had ridiculous quotes in the past and some who have told me what I needed was impossible. Delfino proved them wrong….and for much less money! They even surprised me with doing some work on my (also impossible) driveway at no extra cost because they had enough extra in materials. If you’re looking for kindness, fairness, and honesty..do yourself a favor and hire this incredible family business. You’ll be so thankful you did!! Thank you so much Robert & Ariana Delfino ❤️"

From a very young age, John Lemme grew up next door to his grandfather's well business. He began working for the family business in 1987 and continually learned from his grandfather. He decided after 30 years in the family business, to open his own well and water service company, J Lemme Well and Water Systems. He is by far, the most sought after well/water diagnosis expert, in Rhode Island. We offer well water pump and tank install, filtration systems, well drilling and so much more. No water? 24/7 service phone, please call 401-385-3330.

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

A septic tank lid is often 1 foot underground, but it could be just 4 inches from the surface or 4 feet deep. For septic tank lids that are closer to the surface, you’ll have an easier time locating them just by looking for signs in the yard or using a metal probe. But for septic tanks that are buried deeper underground, you’ll need to hire a pro with specialized equipment to track down the lid without risk of damaging utility lines.

Septic systems can last anywhere from 15 to 40 years and even longer with proper care. However, accidents caused by weather or fires can drastically shorten this lifespan, and it may not reach its full potential without regular inspections and proper maintenance, like pruning back overgrown tree roots.

A shallow-well pump can pull water up to 25 feet deep. A deep-well pump can pull water up to 90 feet deep. A deep-well submersible pump can pull water up to 300 feet deep. Make sure to consult a pro to find out how deep your well is and get the right pump for your needs.

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.

A septic tank riser features a base ring that you need to install flush to the opening of the septic tank. After thoroughly cleaning the opening of the tank, fit the base ring over the opening and use a butyl sealant rope to create an airtight seal with the tank’s rim. Cut the riser rings to the appropriate height and stack them on the base ring. Then, install the riser lid. This task might be taken on by an experienced DIYer, but you should always call a septic tank professional if you are unsure of your skills.
