"We bought our house 2.5 years ago and started having septic issues within the first 6 months of living here. We were pumping our septic tank about every 9 months. Since COVID and quarantine, we have been pumping every 3-6 weeks. We have been told by many that our field lines are blocked and we needed to replace them. We had hired a company in July and after having little to no communication from them for two months we decided to find another contractor. I checked Angie's List and called a couple more companies with one of them being Rapid Rooter. I called Rapid Rooter on Sunday 8/30 and Shane called me back Sunday evening, then came out on Monday 8/31 to give us an estimate. Shane offered to try and repair the lines and save us money (no other company offered to repair the lines). Shane gave us two estimates, one to repair ($3,800) and one to replace ($5,800) if they couldn't repair. We hired them Monday, they called all the utilities on Tuesday 9/1 to mark their lines, and we were on Shane's schedule for Thursday 9/3. Shane and his crew came out and completed the job. What I thought would take a couple of days, took hours for them and with extreme efficiency. They started at 8:30am and left at 3:00pm. They did try to repair the line but once it was dug up, it was discovered the old field lines went uphill (huh?) and into the forest, and were not salvageable. They communicated and showed us, and we approved the full replacement of lines. The new field lines had to be relocated to the front yard which went downhill (gravity, duh!). Our baffle in the tank had also deteriorated to nothing, so they replaced that as well. They did end up cutting through our main water line (only because it wasn't where we all thought it was), and replaced that with better material than what we previously had at no extra charge. I highly recommend Shane and Rapid Rooter. He communicated via phone, text, and constantly while here on the project. He had our project done less than one week from my first call. He was straightforward with our options and even purchased materials for two new hose bibs that we wanted installed if repair of field lines was possible. Since we had to replace and relocate the lines, we couldn't do the hose bibs at this time, but we will sure be calling Rapid Rooter out again soon, to put in the hose bibs. Lesson learned from this project is that the cheapest isn't always the best. If you want your job done right and be able to get it done promptly and on time, call Rapid Rooter to take care of you. They will have all my future business and references."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

The ideal depth of a septic drain field is 18 to 36 inches below the surface. The trenches must be deep enough to allow proper wastewater distribution and filtration while remaining shallow enough for oxygen to reach the soil, promoting bacterial activity that helps break down contaminants. In areas with high groundwater or poor drainage, shallower systems like mound drain fields may be required.

Over time, your septic tank can accumulate a buildup of sludge at the bottom of the tank. If left unpumped and uncleaned, the sludge will back up into your pipes and home, causing failure and extensive (and smelly) damage. Repairs to your septic system can be costly, which is why regular maintenance is required. It takes about 30 minutes to pump a septic tank that’s 1,250 gallons or less or 1 hour for larger varieties.

While abandoning a tank without treating it and following strict rules is illegal, there are several other ways to dispose of an old septic tank. One standard method is to pump out and crush the tank where it rests and bury it in the soil. Another is to remove it and transport it to a landfill. Finally, if abandonment is the best option, your contractor must pump out the tank and fill it with inert material, such as sand or concrete, depending on local regulations.
