---Septic Repair---Line replacement, manhole risers, baffle/filter installation

---Backhoe Service- percolation tests, excavation, and more
---Residential and Commercial sewage removal
---Pumping of BAT's and advanced aerobic/nitrogen reduction onsite disposal systems mandated by MD law in new construction after January 1st, 2013
***ALERT: New Maryland state legislation, as of 1-1-2013, requires utilization of Advanced Nitrogen Reduction and Aerobic treatment septic tanks (ATU's), also referred as B.A.T. (Best Available Technology) in many onsite sewage system installations, in all of Maryland. In many instances, this has increased the total cost of replacement or installation of new septic systems by almost 400% to 500% do to the high-cost of purchasing the MD required BAT tank and equipment.
 
***We believe this new law is all the more reason to smartly maintain and pump the existing basic, conventional septic system you already have. The installation of the BAT represents not only higher additional upfront cost but also more ongoing service costs through maintenance contracts for the life of the system, paperwork and additional reporting requirements, electricity bills, and more expensive components that will require frequent replacement***

Getting your money's worth and then some...

   Septic Superheroes

    ---> Plus, our state-of-the-art truck has one of the most powerful vacuum pumping systems in the  local area!
    ---> We will perform a basic, multi-point overview of the tank (to include a visual inspection of the sludge/liquid level, baffles, lids, and flow characteristics)
    ---> We will be personable, honest, fair, and thankful for your business.

   How Can we Offer Such Great Prices?
  We strive to treat everyone as a neighbor-a friend

If you still don't beleive that we can provide the best job for the low prices we charge, read the next paragraph for evidence of Honest and Trustworthy we strive to be-We want you to feel 110% satisfied with hiring us to do your work:

We prefer you to be home at the time we schedule your service. We we want you to observe, ask questions, and learn about the vital part of your home that is your septic system. We urge you to be present and give us your honest opinion of how we are cleaning your tank.  Beware of another company who just tells you to place the check on the door and doesn't seem interested to have you be on-site and take an active role and observe. Being honest is the first rule of our business and something we pride ourselves upon.

We try to take our time and get to know you-and your septics needs

WE KEEP THE SIZE OF OUR BUSINESS SMALL SO WE CAN MAKE OUR IMPACT BIG.

----> In addition, we emphasize educating our customers about their septic system and you will receive a free maintenance booklet published by Baltimore County Groundwater Management-just ask.



---> Don't forget to have your tank pumped every 2 years. You will need to have it pumped annually or more frequently if you have:

***a failing system (drainfields and drywells have reduced ability to absorb water-pump your system frequently and you will extend their useful life)
***garbage disposal or catering service in-home
***high water useage/high occupancy
***frequent houseguests
***use a lot of toilet paper or flush chemicals (bleach, antibacterial soaps, paint, greases, etc.)
***have a limited septic reserve area-take care of your system and it will take care of you.
***live in an area that is prone to flooding
***if you care about the environment around your home
           
Thanks from all of us!

THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AT OUR HOME-MADE WEB PAGE!
 
The Internet is great and all but we wouldn't have anything if you didn't tell your friends and neighbors about us because: 
EVERYBODY ON A SEPTIC SYSTEM WILL REQUIRE ROUTINE PUMPING

***Just as regular oil changes can extend the life of your car and keep it in good working order, regular pumping of your septic tank can do the same.

The old beleif that the solids, sludge, paper, etc. in the tank will fully break down over time are simply false. Into today's septics, we flush anti-bacterial soaps, laundry detergents, bleach, household cleaning agents, paints, chemicals and much more that counteract the digestive action of the bacteria. The material that accumulates must be removed by pumping. Call us anytime to chat or ask us any questions at all. We Love to Talk!
