We are a family business that has been around for almost 50 years. We install residential and commercial water wells, pump installation and repair, water filtration and geothermal boreholes and system installation.

"These ladies came out today (Saturday of Easter weekend) on an emergency call and determined we needed a new relay. They didn’t try to sell us a new pump but given the fact that the pump was most likely the same vintage (37 years old) we asked them to install a new one. They were professional, knowledgeable and fast! We would highly recommend them to anyone needing well work. The price was reasonable too! Thank you ladies!!"

"He is the worst and most dishonest contractor you could ever hire. When he came in to quote us the job he sounded very confident and sound he knew what he was doing. So we finally agreed on a price and a 2 weeks timeline for the job. He showed up only on the first few days, my husband and I gave him portion of the money with expectations of the job being done soon. days went by and he didn't showed up. We were calling and texting him everyday and no responses, once he would respond, was always a different excuses. On top of him not showing up anymore, we bought 27 boxes of tile for my laundry, when my husband and I weren't home, he showed up, took 5 boxes and went to the store and returned to get cash back to himself, which technically he was stealing from us. he was always calling back when he wanted money but no job done. I know my husband and I were stupid to give him the money without the job being even half way done.We hired him in the first week of January, with intentions to be done in 2 weeks. Today is March 29TH 2018 and this deadbeat contractor hasn't show up in 2 months... ignoring phone calls, text and any sort of communication that we tried to established with him. On top of stealing my materials for his own gain, everything that he has done is falling apart, tile floor is popping up for being laid down improperly with wrong material, the cabinets are all "crooked" for not being leveled right, he painted the walls the wrong color, all with promises of fixing it afterwards. I had plans to put my house in the market end of march, but as right now, my house is in pieces and this dead beat dishonest contractor hasn't showed up, so now its not only the house problem, he is affecting my ability to sell my house. PLEASE, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND NEVER EVER HIRE THIS GUY, His name is Jeffrey Owens Sr."

Septic system installations and replacements FAQs

A septic tank typically lasts 15 to 20 years, depending on the materials used, maintenance frequency, and soil conditions. Regular inspections, proper pumping, and careful water usage can extend its lifespan. Professional maintenance ensures your system remains efficient and helps prevent premature failure.

Your septic tank should be pumped every three to five years. In fact, the recommended interval for pumping is every three to five years, as this schedule effectively prevents the buildup of solids and maintains the system's performance. Factors such as household size, water usage, and the capacity of the tank can influence this interval. Adhering to a regular pumping schedule minimizes risks of backups and system overload, ensuring efficient operation and longevity of your septic system.

Your septic system shows signs of failing when you detect noticeable odors and unusual moisture or overly green patches in your yard. In essence, clear indications such as unpleasant smells, gurgling noises from the plumbing, and areas of excessive vegetation or saturation signal that the system may be compromised. Additional symptoms include slow drainage and standing water near the drain field. These warning signs require immediate professional evaluation to prevent severe damage or environmental hazards.
