"Very impressed with this company. Emmanuel came to our home, he was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, cared about quality work and wasn’t leaving until he got our problem to a good spot. He cleaned the septic, and dug up the filter cover which was seized up. He had a new one on his truck and had to bust up the old one to get it out. He found no filter, but found a clog in the line going away from the septic tank. He sucked that clog out and knew there was probably another one. He set us up for that repair to be done soon as well. We are having a cover put over this area too. That will be done soon too. He explained how the system works , then told me what they would need to do to correct our problem, which was to run a camera and probably clear another clog out to prevent our system from certain backup problems. I am just so impressed with the service Emmanuel did and how sweet he was. It’s nice to have an honest company who cares about the service that they do."

"Jettie Excavation did a great job and was accommodating. Cody, the owner, was communicative, realistic about timelines and logistics, and accommodating of our evolving timeline on a new residential build site. Although a new septic system is pretty regulated in Vermont, I gleaned that Cody is also creative and proactive at problem-solving. Overall, he was great to work with on this project."

"The technician emptied the freezer, which was in the basement, to work on the part that needed repair. Then he neglected to put anything back into the freezer, including a turkey I had bought for Christmas and a rack of ribs. Two days after he left, I went out of town for two weeks. The turkey actually exploded and spewed its liquid all over everything, which had to be discarded. I let AHS know and they couldn't even bother to call me or follow up on this. I'm considering not renewing my contract with them because of the quality (or lack thereof) of many of the providers they send."

Septic Tanks FAQs, answered by experts

Your septic tank may be full or clogged if you notice household drains that are backed up, draining slowly, or gurgling; greener, lusher grass around the septic system; pooling water in your yard; or smelling sewage odors outdoors. You can contact a local septic tank pro to inspect your septic system and pump your tank.

The average three to four-bedroom home typically uses a well pump rated for 8 to 12 gallons per minute (GPM). To find the most accurate size for your specific needs, a common rule of thumb is to count the number of water fixtures and appliances in your home and aim for that number in GPM. This calculation allows for about one gallon of water per minute per fixture. Because estimating the correct size can be challenging, it's best to have a professional technician make the final determination. A professional can ensure your pump provides sufficient water for your home, especially during peak usage hours.

Bladder and diaphragm well pressure tanks are usually pre-charged at the factory. Even so, it’s important to check the air pressure in the tank using a tire pressure gauge on the relief valve. The instruction manual usually calls for 28 psi. Use a hand pump to add more air or release some air from the tank to reach the desired number. Check the pressure periodically to see if you need to add more air to the tank.

Talking with a septic pro before planting trees near your tank is best to ensure the roots won’t interfere with your septic system. However, there is an easy way to figure out where to plant a tree—but you’ll need to know how tall it can get when it’s fully grown. For instance, if the tree can reach 50 feet, plant it at least 50 feet from your septic system.

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.
