"I just had young septic service out to clean out my tanks and lines. I was very impressed with there services. They originally thought I only had one tank which I was quoted for. When they got here they realized I had two. Before they did anything he called me over showed me where I had two tanks and told be the price of two tanks. I was very with there honesty and letting me know the price increase. He also showed me that I had roots around my pump that he cleaned out. He also showed me where to properly put the Aerobic system tablets. They also cared about not tearing up my yard and ask me where would be the best place to park. So my yard wouldn’t get messed up. I highly recommend Young septic services to anyone looking for there septics to be clean. Or any others services they offer there respect for there clients and the work was terrific. He even showed me how low he had cleaned out the tank and my tank was FULL"

"Roel was amazing. He explained and answered all my questions about everything. Unlike most companies, I didn't feel overcharged by any quotes. Being a first time home buyer, I didn't know anything about the septic tanks. He found that I had 3 tanks and cleaned em and advised me on what to do next. I will definitely use them again and recommend em to anyone who asks."

"They were great. They repaired my old septic system and now it works great. They did the work during our very wet Spring and came back in the summer and smoothed it out and made it look good. I would recommend them for all your septic needs."

"I just pay $75 you never know who's going to come out. They do everything electrical. Just about everything is covered except the septic tank. I had an air conditioner replaced. It went great, all I had to do was pay for the freon. He didn't charge e more than what was needed."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

While dry wells can be effective for managing rainwater, they have several disadvantages. They can become clogged with sediment, especially after large storms, which reduces their effectiveness and can be difficult to clean. Dry wells are also not suitable for all soil types; they will not function properly in soil with low permeability. Additionally, if a dry well is not large enough to handle the amount of rainfall in your area, it can overflow. For gravity-flow models, the water may disperse very slowly, depending on the well's depth and the soil's permeability.

It is not normal to smell your septic outside and indicates a problem such as an unsealed manhole or access lid, a clogged septic line, a faulty vent stack, or the need for a septic tank pumping. If sewage is leaking from your septic system, it can be hazardous to you, your family, pets, and the surrounding environment. You can troubleshoot the issue yourself, or contact a septic tank pro who can resolve the issue quickly.

There are three layers of wastewater in a septic tank: scum (solid waste that floats to the top of the wastewater), liquid (the relatively clean liquid wastewater in between the two other layers), and sludge (solid waste that falls to the bottom of the wastewater). The buildup of sludge is one of the main reasons septic tanks need to be pumped. If the tank is more than 1/3 of the way full with a combination of sludge and scum, it’s time to call a pro for pumping.

Over time, your septic tank can accumulate a buildup of sludge at the bottom of the tank. If left unpumped and uncleaned, the sludge will back up into your pipes and home, causing failure and extensive (and smelly) damage. Repairs to your septic system can be costly, which is why regular maintenance is required. It takes about 30 minutes to pump a septic tank that’s 1,250 gallons or less or 1 hour for larger varieties.

There are a couple of ways you can determine the depth of your well. One method is to use a device called a well sounder. This tool has a long measuring tape containing a sensor to alert you once the end reaches the water. 

Or you can DIY it by using a long tape measure with a half-filled bottle of water attached to it. Lower the tape measure into your well. Once you feel tension on the tape, you’ll know the bottle has reached your static water level. This will give you an approximate idea of your well’s depth.
