"We had just purchased our home and after a few days found that the septic system was having a problem - it smelled terribly. A septic contract was a required part of the purchase, however, after 2 months that company was making no headway in getting it fixed and we were unhappy and our neighbors were becoming annoyed with the smell too (understandably so.) We decided to try Total Septic upon recommendation of another neighbor. They were able to schedule our service for the next day. After a few minutes diagnostics, their technician felt confident he knew the issue and went to go get parts. That same afternoon, he replaced the air pump and verified aeration of the tank and explained it would take about 4-7 days to clear the smell. It did and we are extremely happy. I'm not the greatest fan of "star" ratings, but to explain my own below: 1) Work Quality 4.5/5, could it have been better (how it was mounted, setup, etc, yes, but for the price, I think they did a great job and anything more, probably would have required more time and more planning, nonetheless, those options weren't presented, so as close to a '5' as you can get. 2) Customer Service - Absolutely a '5' - Hands down excellent. They did not require a bunch of coordination or paperwork before coming out, they just made the appointment and fixed the problem asking for payment immediately after. We also chose to sign a support contract with them so we can continue to enjoy their excellent service. 3) Value for the money - I had priced replacement pumps and thought that was the problem, but I would be taking a gamble that my uneducated diagnosis from internet information was wrong. I received expert service and experience as well as same-day replacement for nearly the same price. In summary, I could not be happier with the service and people at Total Septic!"

"The services and work that Francisco Albaran offers to his clients is outstanding, extremely professional, respectful and friendly! I had a problem with my water heater and my plumbing in one of my showers. He was able to fix it and complete it thoroughly, which other companies couldn't and seemed like a big problem, he was able to do it! The service was quick, easy and inexpensive. You can't go wrong with it! Highly recommended !!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Unlike an urban sewer system that runs wastewater into a central drainage system, septic tanks are a house-by-house system. They are the ultimate destination for all your house’s wastewater—from bathtubs, showers, sinks, toilets, and washing machines. Wastewater flows into a tank buried in the ground outside your home, and then water runs from the tank to a drainage field using sloped pipes.

The best times of year to empty or pump a septic tank are spring and fall. Many professionals recommend spring because the ground has thawed, making the tank easier to access and the waste less likely to be frozen. Pumping before summer also helps avoid conflicts with vacations or outdoor gatherings. Fall is another great option, as contractors may be less busy, and servicing the tank can reduce the risk of overflow from winter and spring precipitation. While summer is also a suitable time, winter is generally not recommended due to frozen ground.

Yes, a septic tank can get full. If this happens, you might run into issues flushing your toilets or draining your sinks. You may also notice your pipes making gurgling noises or the smell of sewage floating around your house. Other signs of a backed-up septic tank include water pooling or fresh, healthy grass growing above your drain field.

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.

Although air in your water lines won’t affect the overall quality of your water, it will lead to problems with your well water system if not addressed. Over time, too much air in your water lines can create blockages in your pipes, cause insufficient water flow to your taps and appliances, loosen pipes, and potentially damage important components of your well including your well pump and pressure tank.
