"I felt J Bar D did what they said they would do and helped me to decide on the best product application. I would use them again. They installed a septic tank for me, however, it is for a home that is not in use yet so I've not been able to use any of the bathrooms to see how well everything works. I anticipate that all will work well and given that is the case I would then rate them with 5 stars. The delay is not due to J Bar D. It has to do with other things. I enjoyed working with the owner. I feel that his input helped me to make a beter expenditure decision."

"We hired Advanced Septic to remove a failing septic system, and install a new one. The work was done timely, and i felt like we got a very fair price. The finish work and follow through was extremely impressive. The site was grated, cleaned up, and prepped for us to replant sod and return our yard to its original beauty (which was so important, because my daughter is getting married in our back yard in 2 weeks!) Mark knew i was on a tight timeline with family coming into town, and how worried i was about the shape of yard for the ceremony. The whole Advanced crew went above and beyond to make sure i was taken care of. Thanks Advanced Septic Solutions. Y'all are the best!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Septic systems typically require servicing every 3-5 years, but frequency varies according to household size and tank capacity.

Most professionals recommend that a deep well pump shouldn’t run more than 10 hours consecutively before cycling off. Overworking the well pump beyond the recommended amount can prematurely wear out your pump and burn out the motor, which means replacing it more often than you otherwise should need to. Your well pump should also come with the manufacturer’s use and maintenance recommendations that are specific to the model.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), septic tanks must be located a decent distance from places subject to flooding or surface ponding. Additionally, septic tanks should be installed on level ground so that the waste can properly settle in the tank. Most tanks are located 10 to 20 feet away from the home. More specific requirements vary by location, so call a local septic pro or your local health department for more information.

To keep roots from growing into a septic tank. However, there are other steps you can take if existing tree roots are getting close to your septic tank. For one, you can install root barriers, which physically block roots from reaching your septic tank. You can also use chemical solutions in your yard or plumbing system to deter root growth.

If you aren’t sure if you have a septic tank or a cesspit, you can check your property records or inspect your drainage system. A septic tank has an outlet pipe that allows liquid to drain into a soakaway or drain field, while a cesspit is a sealed tank that requires frequent emptying. If you notice a manhole cover and no nearby drainage field, it’s likely a cesspit. Signs like slow drainage or a frequent need for pumping can also provide clues. A professional inspection is the easiest way to confirm if your home runs on a septic tank or cesspit.
