Allow me to share with you something most septic companies refuse to: there are two categories of people in this world. Those who think septic systems are simply "underground boxes for waste," and those that have had raw sewage gurgling into their backyard at midnight. I discovered this difference the hard way in 2005standing in mud, freezing in a Washington downpour, as my brothers and I assisted a weathered installer fix our family's failed system. I was 14. My hands were raw. My pants were ruined. But that moment, something clicked: This isn't just manual labor. It's folks' lives we are preserving. Here's the dirty truth: the majority of septic companies just maintain tanks. They act like quick-fix salesmen at a disaster convention. But Septic Solutions? These guys are special. It all started back in the beginning of the 2000s when Art and his brothersjust kids barely tall enough to carry a shovelassisted install their family's septic system alongside a grizzled pro. Visualize this: three pre-teens buried in Pennsylvania clay, discovering how soil porosity affects drainage while their peers played Xbox. "We did not just dig trenches," Art explained to me last winter, steaming coffee cup in hand. "We learned how earth whispers truths. A patch of marsh plants here? That's Mother Nature shouting 'high water table.'" https://www.wikiwicca.com/forums/topic/can-i-extend-the-life-of-my-drain-field/ |
