"They will change the contract, promise a refund and never send it. They also will not respond to inquiries. Promised call backs that never happen. Promised call from manager, never received. We had the work done in May and they are still keeping my money as of August. If they change the work order do not pay the full amount unless you get a new contract. I made the mistake of trusting them."

Septic Solutions and Services Inc is a family owned and operated. We are a septic system installation and servicing business. Anything from new installations to repairing your old system if it is repairable. We are continuing a 4 decade tradition of installing the best septic system you could have. WE ARE THE STANDARD TO WHICH ALL OTHERS ARE COMPARED.

"Tim Bragg and his company Septic Solutions of Adrian, WV was hired in 2007 to excavate a basement for a new home, install a septic tank, connect a water supply line to the house, and install an underground PVC drainage system to carry rain water away from the foundation. A problem was discovered in July 2019 that an important PVC connection had never been glued together and had pulled apart. This allowed rain water to accumulate next to the foundation and septic tank. I contacted Mr. Bragg and his response was that they would correct it some time in August. I also sent him pictures of the separated connection that was found underground. Unfortunately, that was the first and last communication with Mr. Bragg as he no longer took my phone calls or returned phone calls or texts. The lack of response is totally unprofessional and not trustworthy. If you don't want to fix it, can't fix it, or don't want to take responsibility for the mistake, then speak up. Don't hide behind voicemail."

Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts

No, vinegar won't hurt PVC pipes. While vinegar is acidic, it’s not caustic enough to damage PVC. Pouring baking soda and vinegar down your drains is a great DIY solution for clearing minor clogs. If the problem isn’t resolved with vinegar and baking soda, it’s likely time to call in a pro. Avoid using more caustic solutions like drain cleaners, as these will damage PVC pipes, especially if there’s a clog.

You might need a permit to modify or repair any portion of your plumbing system, including drainage lines, depending on where you live. In some areas, simple replacements of existing drain lines don’t require a permit. We recommend asking your drain pipe installer or your local building department about permitting requirements. In many cases, only certified plumbers can pull plumbing permits, so you’ll usually need to leave the permit application to your professional. The fee for the permit will be passed to you on your project bill, though.

Technically, you can put an elongated toilet seat on a round toilet, but it’s not a good idea. Elongated toilet seats are a few inches longer than round toilets, so they will hang over the front edge of your toilet, which isn’t appealing. Additionally, an unsupported toilet seat or portion of a toilet seat is more likely to crack and shift, which could result in injury to whoever uses the toilet. Always match your toilet seat style to your toilet, or replace the toilet entirely if you’re looking to switch styles.

Water pipes will unfreeze once temperatures stay above freezing long enough to thaw. As things warm up, you might hear gurgling and banging sounds from the pipes. It can take a while for the pipes to unfreeze, and they won’t without help if temperatures stay below freezing. Open cupboard doors, turn up the heat, and get out hair dryers, heat guns, space heaters, and heat lamps to speed up the thawing process. If you live where it’s frequently below freezing, consider whether pipe insulation is worth installing.

When positioning a pot filler, you want to mount it above the stove at a height that allows for convenient access without obstructing cooking. Ideally, it should be centered and reach all burners. Ensuring it's properly aligned and at an ergonomic height is crucial for its functionality and aesthetic appeal in the kitchen space.
