"I had a tankless water heater installed but needed the gas line to be dug from the other side of the house for it to be connected. The job was complicated but Luke and his crew from Mr. Rooter did a great job! I would totally hire them again for any plumbing needs."

"I had standing water in my yard for some time now and I needed someone asap to adress the drainage problem in my back yard. I contacted them through home advisor and Blaine got back to me within minutes. Within hours he was at my home talking me through the work that would be done and the next day I received a bid. He had an operator on the site within a week of initial contact and the work performed was exactly executed to the specifications they laid out for me for the initial bid. The men were on time everyday and took no breaks except to go on lunch. The work afterwards was immaculate, absolutely perfect, the way I envisioned. Blaine sent me an invoice and it was in the range he quoted me for the work. I would highly recommend them for their professionalism, work ethic, and great pricing for otherwise expensive work. I would highly recommend them"

"These guys were exceptional! Brian was responsive, informative and flexible. His guys were nothing short of miracle workers. They took a job that two other bidders said couldn't be done by one company and they did it. And cleaned up after themselves. I hope I never have a job like this again, but if I do, I'm going with Elliott and Son."

"Keith's was punctual, and was able to quickly locate the septic tank. They uncovered the tank, filled it for inspection, inspected it and the back-flow preventer, located the field lines, and pumped the tank. They provided a field-written report with a site sketch showing the location, along with a discussion of the issues found and recommendations."

"I highly recommend Nate and his crew. They gave us a very reasonable price, had great communication, and performed top of the line work. I was extremely impressed with the footers they dug on our new construction home and would 100% hire them again."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

The size of your septic tank plays a role in determining the proper size of the drain or leach field. As a general rule, you should have 1 square foot of drain field size per gallon of septic tank capacity. However, you could install a leach field that’s as much as 2.5 square feet per gallon of septic tank capacity. Most professionals determine the right septic tank size and drain field size by the number of bedrooms in the house. A three-bedroom house needs a minimum 1,000-gallon septic tank, for example.

A gurgling toilet usually doesn’t mean that your septic tank is full. If waste can’t drain into a full septic tank, you’ll see water and sewage backing up into your fixtures, but the air that causes gurgling is a result of poor venting. You are more likely to have a clog in your vent stack or a damaged air admittance valve.

Deciding between an engineered septic system and a conventional one depends on property size, soil quality, local regulations, and environmental factors. If your property has limited space, poor soil, or is close to sensitive environmental features, an engineered system may be required. Professional site evaluations, considering water usage, long-term plans, and budget constraints, can help determine the appropriate choice. Consulting with a septic system professional is crucial for ensuring compliance with regulations and selecting the best system for your property's unique needs.

Most well pump pressure switches have a factory setting of 30 to 50 PSI. There’s some flexibility with this if you’d like a lower or higher water pressure, but remember that it should sit 2 to 3 PSI above your well tank’s general pressure setting.

The inside of your pressure switch cover will usually indicate minimum and maximum settings—going below and above the numbers might damage your well pump.

A septic alarm can sound different depending on your system, but often, it’s a loud, repetitive beeping noise or a steady, high-pitched noise. It may also be a loud buzzing noise. To confirm the noise is your septic alarm, check your alarm box for a red light. You can also silence your alarm with a red button or switch on the box. Look for something that says “Test” or “Mute.”
