Additional Contact Name - Kathleen Lesavage. Cost is determined by the job. Additional fax - (715) 686-7676.

"Several years ago we were told we needed to replace our quite old septic system. Asking around we were referred to Lesavage Plumbing & Heating, we signed a contract and they did the work. Then the system started clogging. I called several times and finally Chris came out and said we needed to clean a filter monthly, even though the man who tried to snake out the pipe said the problem was toward the cabin. So this year I cleaned the filter regularly. This fall, when we had house guests, the system totally clogged, and could not be snaked. I called Lesavage Plumbing & Heating at least 8 times on both published numbers, couldn’t get through, left voice mails, but they refused to return my calls. I then contacted Schmidt & Sons Plumbing, they diagnosed the problem and, as I was told earlier, where the old and new systems were connected the pipe had dropped down 4 inches. They corrected the problem caused by Lesavage’s incompetence. To summarize: Lesavage incorrectly installed the septic system, refused to stand by their work, made up a “solution” that did not work and refused to return phone calls."

"Always late or never turned up, he gave every excuse under the sun. Workmanship was very poor, he always left a mess that we ended up cleaning up afterwards. Still not finished the job after 4 months and we ended up hiring someone else to finish and redo the poor remodel and trim."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can adjust your well pump pressure relatively easily by yourself. You’ll need to remove the cover from your pressure switch and adjust a nut that controls cut-in pressure. Learn more about how to adjust a well pump pressure switch with a step-by-step guide to setting your water pressure.

There should be a red button or an on/off switch on or in your box. Press the button or flip the switch, then turn it back on by doing the same action again. If this doesn’t work, reset the breakers inside the box by flipping them off and back on again. After this, your alarm should stay off if there’s nothing wrong with your system. However, if the alarm is still sounding and there’s still a red light on, it’s time to call a pro for a diagnosis.

To determine the right size for your submersible well pump, find your well depth, water demand, and well casing diameter. The pump should match your well's specifications and meet or exceed your drawdown and pressure requirements. 

For precise sizing, make sure to research the different well pump sizes, consult the manufacturer's recommendations, or seek guidance from a professional well pump installer.

The precharged pressure tank should start at around 28 psi. The two pressure settings of note are the cut-in and cut-out pressure. The well pump starts when the tank reaches the minimum cut-in pressure. It turns off when the tank reaches the maximum cut-out pressure. The desired water pressure in the household is usually a few psi above the cut-in number. The difference between the cut-in and cut-out pressure settings should be 20 psi. Typical settings for household applications include 20/40, 30/50, and 40/60.

The price you’ll pay for service from a septic tank company will depend on the specific service you need. Here are some common services, along with average pricing:

  • Anaerobic septic system installation: $3,000–$8,000

  • Aerobic septic system installation: $10,000–$20,000

  • Septic tank pumping: $250–$550

  • Percolation test: $700–$2,000

  • Leach field installation: $2,000–$10,000

These numbers vary based on your septic system size, property layout, and more, so the best way to get an accurate estimate is to contact a septic tank professional for a custom quote.
