"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

A septic tank with a 1,500-gallon capacity is good for larger homes with up to 6 or 7 bedrooms. The average home can go with a smaller tank, about 1,000 gallons, which supports a home size of up to 2,500 square feet, or a home with about three bedrooms.

A household of four can easily fill a 1,000-gallon septic tank within a week. It may be 10 to 14 days for smaller households. But the reason why you don't need weekly pumping is because the tank's contents eventually reach the overflow pipe. They flow down this pipe to the absorption area whenever water is used in your home. The tank keeps working at this full level until it's pumped again.

Installation necessitates professional expertise due to complexity and to ensure safety when handling waste.

A properly installed and maintained septic drain field (also known as a leach field) can last up to 50 years, though the average is around 20 years. However, factors like poor soil conditions, heavy usage, or improper maintenance can significantly shorten its lifespan to 15-20 years.

To extend the life of your drain field:

  • Schedule Regular Inspections: Have the entire septic system, including the drain field, inspected every two to five years to catch problems early.

  • Protect the Area: Avoid driving heavy vehicles or placing heavy structures over the drain field. Plant only grass or other lightweight vegetation with shallow roots over the area.

  • Maintain the Septic Tank: Proper care of the septic tank, including regular pumping and avoiding harmful chemicals, prevents strain on the drain field.

Be aware of signs of failure, such as strange odors, standing water, or unusually lush grass over the field, which indicate your system may need professional attention.

Expect to take at least a day to drill your own well by hand. For a 500-foot well, this could take even longer, depending on the makeup of the soil and the terrain you are drilling through. Other factors include your physical strength and overall fitness level and the weather conditions you’re working in.
