"Scott replaced the water heater, and also cleared our basement floor drain that another very popular plumbing company (that supposedly specializes in drain clearing) could not clear. This other company had quoted me $1300 to excavate our basement and clear the drain. More if they had to move the furnace to get at the drain. Scott from Expert had the drain flowing freely in about 10 minutes, for $185. He also recommended the installation of an expansion tank on our new water heater, as he felt the pressure is what caused premature failure of our previous water heater. Would definitely call this company again."

"Mr. Dutson was a dream to work with. From the very beginning, his communication was professional and he responded immediately to any questions and to setting up an appointment. At the tank, he was amazing to get the access cover off, even though it had problems with it. The tank hadn't been pumped in several years, which made the job more difficult. However, Mr. Dutson handled the job like it was easy. He was efficient and thorough, including washing the tank down. There was even something that looked like old construction debris in the tank that he was able to get out--something that the previous pumping company had left behind. Mr. Dutson was so friendly and professional. He was patient to answer all of my questions regarding septic tanks and additives. His wealth of knowledge was impressive. I would recommend him to anyone. I will always use him for my septic tank needs."

"I bought a flipped house (I know!) and they had installed my shower handles wrong. They wouldn't get hotter than tepid while the rest of the house has scalding hot water. They came highly recommended from a friend. The service was prompt, timely, clean, and efficient. The service tech was very mindful of COVID safety, and very polite. He fixed my problem and now I can bathe in the fires of ****. Thanks Salt City Plumbing!!! :D"

"We hired Clic to build a detached garage in our back yard. My family is in commercial construction, so I knew the lowest bid is often not the best bid. I paid a little more than I could have with other contractors, but I have no regrets. Gary, the owner, and Steve, the superintendent, were great to work with. If you want a quality end result for your project, Clic is going to satisfy!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

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.

Septic tanks and cesspits are both types of sewage and wastewater systems, but they differ in key ways. The main difference between the two systems is that septic tanks separate sewage from wastewater and allow the latter to flow into a drainage field to filter and disperse into the soil. Cesspits don’t have outlets and instead, store sewage until it needs to be pumped by a professional.

Needing to pump the tank as soon as it “looks” full is a common myth about septic systems, as wastewater will eventually drain into the leach field. Instead, it’s better to determine how many solids have accumulated. A septic maintenance technician near you can test this to find out whether pumping is necessary.

Yes! Toilet paper can be flushed if you use a septic tank. While unique toilet papers designed to be used with septic tanks are available, many people have no problem flushing regular toilet paper with a septic tank, so long as you don’t flush too much toilet paper all at once. Do not flush any type of baby wipes or bathroom wipes, even if they say “flushable.”

There are a lot of issues that can cause a septic tank to collapse. Those include failing to regularly pump or service it every three to five years, placing too much weight atop the system—by parking your car on top of it or because of a heavy snow buildup for instance—or because of structural damage done by overgrown tree roots.
