"They called us right back and came to service our house that day. We opted to replace our water heater instead of repairing it because it was close to 15 years old. They purchased and replaced our water heater that day. They were professional, and we appreciated there timely response. We would recommend them to family and friends."

"Extremely pleased with the service. My massive shared septic tank was clogged with grease and over-flowing into the yard so It needed pumping. It was done in a timely manner and in rough weather conditions at a very affordable cost. Also great communication from Sherrill. Highly recommended!"

"Excellent service! Showed up when expected, very professional, courteous, (Funny :) ), knowledgable, did an excellent job on a tank not serviced since installed (23 yrs). The cover did break due to age, but they came back and replaced it without any issues. Reasonably priced, and will definitely recommend this company to anyone needing Septic services."

"I had a blockage that was at the septic tank inlet. Chris came out on Memorial Day and took care of my issue. Chris did not charge an extra $200.00 like the other listed vendor quotedor a $50.00 charge to find the lid to my tank. He saved me over $300.00. I am very happy."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re going away on vacation or leaving your home for a long time, it’s a good idea to switch off your well pump and pressure tank before you go. This way you can prevent any damage from unexpected leaks that may occur or unforeseen electrical issues while you’re away.

Yes, a septic tank riser can replace a concrete septic tank lid. Risers are designed to replace various types of septic tank covers, including concrete, metal, and fiberglass, to provide easier access for pumping and repairs. While a plastic riser makes future access more convenient, the initial replacement can be difficult because concrete lids are very heavy, so it is a job best left to professionals. Once installed, you will need to be cautious around the riser during yard work, such as mowing, to avoid causing damage.

Bladder and diaphragm well pressure tanks are usually pre-charged at the factory. Even so, it’s important to check the air pressure in the tank using a tire pressure gauge on the relief valve. The instruction manual usually calls for 28 psi. Use a hand pump to add more air or release some air from the tank to reach the desired number. Check the pressure periodically to see if you need to add more air to the tank.

Yes, it is generally okay to oversize a well pressure tank, and it will not harm your well system. The primary advantage is that a larger tank reduces frequent pump cycling, leading to longer, slower cycles with fewer startups. This can result in less wear and tear, potentially increasing the lifespan of the pump and conserving energy. However, there are drawbacks to consider. Oversized tanks have a higher upfront cost and require more physical space. While not necessarily a bad thing, opting for a tank that is appropriately sized for your well is often the most efficient choice in terms of cost and space.
