"Plumber charged a lot to hack up my house to fix a leaking pipe behind the dishwasher. He didn't hook up the dishwasher drain line correctly and it leaked. Had to fix myself. They used a scrap pipe instead of the proper $2 part. They wanted to charge me a service fee to come out and fix their problem. I would give zero stars if I could. Over $2200 for bad work. Avoid these guys!"

I’m Scott Riddell, the owner and founder of Riddell Plumbing, Inc. I was born and raised right here in Dallas, Texas. At the age of 19, I started working at a plumbing company. I almost immediately knew this is what I love and live for. In 1987, I started with one truck and my garage. Here we are, 26 years down the road and I am very proud to say my company has grown into one of the largest and best plumbing companies in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I give every task my all and I can promise you that you will never receive less than 100% from me or my employees. I still go out in the field every day to check on jobs, meet our customers, and make sure everyone is satisfied with my work ethics. This company was built on a lot of hard work, honesty, and quality. We treat every single job as if it is our own, and we always thrive for perfection, and satisfaction!

"Although this company is very courteous and employees are professional, they lack any common sense and will cost you time and money. I have used this company a few times now and this seems to be a consistent issue. The first time, they installed a leak defense system in the middle of my yard and placed a plastic rock on top, which looked obvious and terrible. In addition to paying the initial fee for install, I had to pay an additional $500 for them to come back out and reinstall it against the wall. Today, I had them come install pop-ups for some of my sinks and they didn’t check to see if the pop-ups had all parts before installing so I had to pay for removal of old drain, install of defective new drain and then reinstall of old drain. They offered no apology or discount so I ended up paying for 1.5 hours of work for NOTHING. I would not recommend this company."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

When your septic system is failing, you’ll probably smell it. Common signs of a septic system failure include sewage odors in the home or around the yard, flooding in the yard above the septic tank or in the leach field, and wastewater or even raw sewage backing up into your home’s drains.

Septic tanks appear full after pumping because the liquid levels have returned to normal. If you can see the pipe, the tank is empty. However, heavy rain can cause septic tanks to fill faster than normal. You might also have leaky pipes or faucets, causing extra water to drip down the drains and into the septic tank.

Your drain field or leach field should be 1 to 3 feet under the ground. It will be a little shallower than the septic tank, although it can be the same depth or slightly deeper. The proper depth of the septic tank is up to 4 feet. It’s possible that your local regulatory agency requires a certain depth for your drain field.

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.

Since vinegar is a weak acid with a pH of two to three, it’s generally safe for septic systems. It won’t eat away at the good bacteria in your septic tank and can help break down the sludge, which is its bottom layer. However, like with everything in life, moderation is key.
