"These guys have been great so far. When they came out, they informed us of our county's requirements for septic systems, did a thorough inspection, and answered ALL my questions (new to septic systems, so I had a lot). They came back to complete some needed repairs. They're prompt, courteous and reasonably priced. Definitely recommend."
"Dwayne is incredible. Previous home owners did not disclose that the septic was collapsed and within a few months of living here the system would immediately backup into the house with the smallest amount of water, you can imagine the smell and mess that made. I called other septic companies and had trouble even getting them to show up and when they did most either wouldn't take the job because of challenges with replacing the system or would quote ridiculous amounts. I lucked into finding Dwayne and Total Septic and he showed the day after I called him, immediately started looking for solutions to the challenges my house had and quoted me the best price by far. After placing the system in, my general contractor abandoned our project because he had not submitted for any permits for the job he was doing and took off with about 60k of our money. Without permits Dwayne was not able to complete the install and the tank set exposed in ground for 6 months while I dealt with the city and legal. In that time, the hole flooded floating the tank and and snapping the piping. Once the permits were in, Dwayne came out immediately and pulled the tank out fixed all the pipes and had it working perfecting and buried in a day. For this extra effort that was no fault of his, he charged me 500 dollars. He could have charged pretty much anything at that point and I would have had to pay, but that is not the kind of guy he is. Since installing the system I have had two issues come up and both times they were out to fix either the same day or the next day. I could not recommend more Total Septic for any septic project you have. I am a lifetime customer and in a world like ours right now where 75% of the contractors are unreliable or just flat crooked, it was such a relief to find someone I could trust."

"Charleys came out on an emergency call on a Saturday night and he took his time, went above and beyond to make sure the tank was clean, found the actual problem, called a plumber at 10 pm to make sure he could come first thing in the morning. I will definitely call him again."
"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!"
"Since then I have had another electrician who has looked at the SAME box and he pointed out everything that was wrong. Multiple wires going into a breaker (for several of them), the ground not being grounded etc. Some serious issues that were observable by simply opening the breaker box. I had a third electrician out to the house to give me a third opinion and he agreed that there are many things wrong with the way the breakers are wired. I was terribly disappointed by JBL electric when I realized that he hadn't really LOOKED. Nice folks, but I won't use them again. "
With proper maintenance, most types of septic systems—including mound, evapotranspiration, and constructed wetland systems—can last up to 40 years. To keep your system running as long as possible, follow basic septic tank upkeep guidelines, like pumping your septic tank every three to five years and only flushing human waste and toilet paper.
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.
Having a well means that a household’s water supply, including water that comes through faucets, showerheads, and appliances, is supplied through a private source rather than from a city. The well pulls fresh water from an underground water supply, such as an aquifer, and the well pump pushes the water from the well to your household.
Concrete septic tank risers are heavier and more durable than plastic or fiberglass ones, making them suitable for long-term use. Installing a concrete riser differs from installing plastic or fiberglass risers primarily in the materials and methods used. The process involves cutting the concrete risers to the required length and then stacking them, using concrete sealant or adhesive between sections for secure attachment. Due to their weight, extra care is necessary during leveling and the attachment of sections. Concrete sealant or adhesive may also require a curing before the riser is ready for use.
Most homeowners know there’s a septic system problem when they can smell one. However, this isn’t exactly a scientific deduction method. Consider some of the other signs: standing water or constantly damp earth in the drainage area, toilets and sinks that won’t drain or frequently back up, and loud plumbing. You really need to be on top of routine maintenance with septic systems in order to avoid such unpleasant symptoms of a septic issue.
