"Gilberto was extremely responsive, day or night, and very transparent about pricing. Helpful, helped us learn more about our septic situation, and his team was able to quickly install some pieces we needed. Will absolutely go to them again for any other septic needs that arise."

"Wayne was so nice & most patient. He easily spent an hour looking for the tank AFTER being called at the very last min to pump out a septic BEFORE the inspector arrived (the next day). He kept searching, checking with me, sending me pics on the progress of the search. I was offsite & the septic map was at home AND I hadn't lived there for 14 years. My terrible memory had Wayne looking all over the place. BUT he didn't give up. He found the tank, pumped it & THEN filled ALL the holes back in. They are the best!! Thank you Wayne for such a thorough job. I tip my hat to you!! à °à  à  à Â"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Most septic tanks need to be emptied every 3 to 5 years, but it’s a good idea to monitor the fill levels of your septic tank all the time. You can do this by installing a pressure level sensor to detect the internal tank pressure, or by having a septic tank company perform an annual inspection to let you know when you’ll need to pump the tank.

The bacteria already present in your septic system should be enough to break down solids in a properly maintained septic tank. However, if you’re in a DIY mood, you can try adding (well-mashed) rotten tomatoes to help the good bacteria fulfill their duty. Just make sure you give them a couple hours to work after flushing them down.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

There are a variety of different types of septic systems that can work in your home—such as conventional anaerobic systems, chamber systems, drip distribution systems and mound septic systems. All of them work using natural processes to break down solid waste and effectively treat wastewater without needing to be connected to a city sewer system. Which type of septic system you need will depend on characteristics of your property like how high the bedrock is or groundwater table is. Different types of systems come at different costs to install.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.
