"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."

"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. "
Normally, when your well pump turns on or off, you’ll hear a small click. This isn’t anything to worry about, but it can be a problem if it’s clicking continuously. This can indicate that the well pump is short cycling—the pump continuously turns on and off.
This can wear out the motor and provide uneven water flow. If this happens, you may need to get it looked at by a well pump professional to see if you need to repair the switch or pump.
A septic tank riser features a base ring that you need to install flush to the opening of the septic tank. After thoroughly cleaning the opening of the tank, fit the base ring over the opening and use a butyl sealant rope to create an airtight seal with the tank’s rim. Cut the riser rings to the appropriate height and stack them on the base ring. Then, install the riser lid. This task might be taken on by an experienced DIYer, but you should always call a septic tank professional if you are unsure of your skills.
You may notice a septic smell in your yard after it rains if groundwater is entering your septic tank and causing it to overflow. If you experience septic odors after rainfall, contact a licensed plumber. They can construct a drain to redirect rainwater away from your septic tank.
While not strictly necessary for your septic system to operate, septic tank risers are a highly beneficial and wise choice for homeowners. They provide easy access to your tank, which makes regular maintenance, inspections, and addressing issues significantly easier and less labor-intensive. By eliminating the need for repeated excavation to locate the tank, risers can save you money, labor, and energy in the long run. This easy access allows you to proactively manage your septic system, addressing potential problems before they become costly and ensuring the system's longevity. Additionally, some local regulations may require risers, and installing them can help you avoid potential fines or penalties.
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.
