"I had my sewer hooked up from the septic to the city sewer. I got quotes from 5 different contractors and Anthony gave my the best quote by far. His team came to my house and in less than a day the job was done. I was very pleased with the job they did and would highly recommend them to anyone."

"I asked for proof of license. It was the first thing presented to me. I was told exactly what they were going to do and they did it. Total job about 2 hours including observing the original tank, driving to purchase replacement tank and return with additional worker and finish install and remover old tank. I might of found a lower price to save maybe a few hundred but sometimes you get what you pay for."

"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

Start by finding the septic tank, marked by an access lid near your home. From there, the drain field extends outward in a series of trenches. Look for greener, lusher grass, as drain fields promote plant growth due to moisture and fertilizer. You can also check property records, use a soil probe to detect damp soil, or hire a septic professional with ground-penetrating radar equipment to map the drain field’s location.

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.

The best times of year to empty or pump a septic tank are spring and fall. Many professionals recommend spring because the ground has thawed, making the tank easier to access and the waste less likely to be frozen. Pumping before summer also helps avoid conflicts with vacations or outdoor gatherings. Fall is another great option, as contractors may be less busy, and servicing the tank can reduce the risk of overflow from winter and spring precipitation. While summer is also a suitable time, winter is generally not recommended due to frozen ground.

You can put yogurt in your septic tank, but it will not increase the bacteria in your septic tank. In other words, it won't harm your tank, but it won't get rid of a septic smell or boost the performance of your septic system. While yogurt contains helpful bacteria, you would need to buy an extraordinary amount of yogurt to make any difference. Adding yogurt is not a helpful or cost-effective strategy.

Most septic tanks can handle two to three loads of laundry per day, or a weekly total of between seven and 10 loads. Although septic systems do require homeowners to be somewhat careful with their plumbing systems—for instance, it’s not a good idea to flush a bunch of toilet paper all at once—they can still handle fairly heavy use.
