We do all aspects of plumbing: installation, renovation and repair to include but not limited to: kitchen sinks, toilets, water heaters, shower fixtures, pressure regulators, sewage pumps, sewer service lines, water service lines. We are certified, licensed, and authorized to cut the public street and install your sewer tap if needed. We will also transfer your sewage system from Septic (on site sewage management system) to your local municipal at your request. Polybutylene pipe replacement or repair, gas lines, garbage disposals, dishwashers, bathtubs, handicap fixtures, ADA fixtures, approved disabled fixtures, Jacuzzi, fancy fixtures and specially designed plumbing parts.

Over time and depending on the quality of installation, sewer lines can develop a host of problems to include but not limited to: Broken, cracked, offset, off grade or collapsed pipe due to shifting soil, frozen ground, settling and sometimes poor installation. We can accurately pinpoint and fix these problems. This also contributes to leaking joints which allows water to escape into the area surrounding the pipe. It is estimated that at least 10% of all sewage water seeps back into the soil before reaching the local purification plants.

Your pipes may suffer from blockage due to grease buildup or a foreign object that is restricting or prohibiting proper flow. Pipes can also dislodge, crack and cause root infiltration. This is where tree or shrub roots have invaded the sewer line system and have damaged the line. This type of invasion by roots can and will contribute to bowed or bellied piping which will hold water and cause sewage to collect in one spot and clog the entire line.

We have all the necessary equipment to clear clogged drains as well as perform video camera inspection of sewer pipes. We have the technology to locate and outline the exact path and depth of your sewer system. We also offer service in water leak detection and water line locating. We detect and repair gas line leaks. We do low flow housing certification for compliance with new low flow fixtures for water conservation and consumption. We also provide a full written report of septic tank inspection letters. We also provide a full sewer line diagnostics and recommendation of installation procedures or repairs. YOU NAME IT WE DO IT.

We specialize in sewer line video camera inspection. This process eliminates the guess work in giving estimates to fix or replace any sewer line system. This process also gives the customer a piece of mind because they can see and better understand what the plumber is talking about. In many instances, after the customer views the live video they better understand what the best avenue of approach should be.

There is absolutely no substitute for a video camera inspection of a sewer line system. We caution anyone who is purchasing a home be it new or previously owned, to get a video camera inspection of the system. This process also works for homes on a septic tank system as well. This small investment saves thousands of dollars and headaches later on.

Understanding the old saying that "all water flows downhill" relates to the installation of the sewer pipe to the septic tank. Except, you do not want a fast flow into the septic tank from the pipe. This condition can cause the water to flow too quickly, leaving the solids behind to clog the drain pipe over time. By following a few basic procedures you can install a sewer pipe into a septic tank at the correct "drop" for proper flow of water and solids.

Use the transit level and shoot the level of the sewer pipe exit point and the septic tank entrance for the pipe by holding the measuring stick at these two points. Calculate the difference of the two measurements. The septic tank entrance level must be lower than the sewer pipe's exit from the home. Understand that the proper "drop" or fall for the sewer pipe into the septic tank should be approximately 1/4 inch for every 10 feet of piping. This amount of fall or drop will properly conduct the solids that are included in every sewer to septic system.

Use the shovel to adjust the angle or drop inside the trench with the shovel. As an example, if the sewer line were to run 100 feet from the home to the septic tank entrance, the amount of fall would be 2 1/2 inches.

Use the transit to properly adjust every piece of pipe as it is placed in the sewer line trench. You can begin at a "zero" point with the exit from the home and add a negative 1/4 inch to every section of pipe. In other words, at the end of the first 10-foot pipe section you should have a negative 1/4 inch. At the end of the second pipe, the transit should read a negative 1/2 inch and so on.

Install the sewer pipe one section at a time and check the amount of fall with each pipe section installation. Adjust the trench depth with the shovel by adding or removing the soil.

Wipe each section of pipe with the rag to remove any dirt and debris where the pipes will mate into each other.

Use the pipe cleaner and apply a generous amount of the solvent to thoroughly remove any printing and dirt that the rag did not remove. Allow the cleaner to dry before proceeding to Step 3.

How to Install a Sewer Line to a Septic Tank | eHow

When people refer to sewage treatment, they almost always refer to all of them as septic tanks. While this is usually incorrect, septic tank and field line systems are still the preferred method of sewage treatment in areas conducive for that type of treatment. For clarity, field lines refer to drain fields and leach fields since some people refer to them that way. Septic tank and field line sewer systems work best in areas of sandy soils and in this article we will describe the method of properly installing one.

The Westport Weston Family Y is moving ahead with preparations to install a septic system for its new complex planned at the Mahackeno Outdoor Center after the Board of Selectmen on Wednesday approved establishment of an emergency reserve fund for the wastewater facility.

The fund will consist of cash and/or cash equivalents totaling about $300,000 -- an amount financed by the Y. That reserve is intended to cover 100 percent of the "anticipated replacement costs" of all the septic facility's equipment and materials, as mandated by a wastewater treatment ordinance passed in 2006 by the Representative Town Meeting.

Y officials will also have to secure the Board of Selectmen's approval to create an operational and maintenance fund for the Mahackeno septic facility. Both of those accounts must be set up before the Y builds the septic system.

"In this case here, you're typically going to have a couple of components that are going to go, get hit by lightning, have an explosion, have motors, have pumps, things like that that would go," said Public Works Director Steve Edwards. "Those are all items that would be easily covered with $300,000."

During his 25 years running the town's wastewater treatment plant, Edwards said he did not recall any "catastrophic event" that had cost $300,000. He also expressed confidence the town could cope with the prospective failure of the Mahackeno septic system.

"This is a recreational facility, and if we have to shut it down, we shut it down," Edwards added. "Worst case scenario: They could truck 30,000 gallons (of wastewater) down to my treatment plant on a daily basis for probably six months for $300,000."

The selectmen's approval of the emergency reserve fund is the latest step in a lengthy approval process for the construction of an on-site wastewater treatment facility to service the Y's planned 54,000-square-foot center at its Mahackeno campus in northwest Westport. That septic apparatus -- also known as a fixed activated sludge treatment system -- has also been approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission, the Conservation Commission, the Flood and Erosion Control Board and the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection.

Y officials earlier this year submitted an application to the town to connect the Mahackeno campus to Westport's public sewer system. That proposal would have required changes to the municipal sewer network's boundaries and attracted vehement resistance from a number of town residents. The Y subsequently withdrew the application.

Despite the furor provoked by the Y's sewer proposal, Westport Weston Family Y Chief Executive Officer Rob Reeves has not ruled out the possibility of eventually connecting the Mahackeno complex to the town's sewer system.

"We would prefer to be added to the town's sanitary sewer system and would entertain any request from the town to consider that, but are moving forward with our plans for a septic system," he said in an email Thursday.

Y wins approval for Mahackeno septic reserve fund

GOOD HOPE A major sewer line extension is in the works after officials received word the city has landed a grant to help fund the project through the Alabama Department of Community Affairs (ADECA).

The grant, a $330,000 award the city had sought but failed to obtain in years past, will fun roughly half the project, expected to total approximately $700,000.

Good Hope Mayor Corey Harbison said the new line will run east of Alabama Highway 69 through a residential area where many homeowners not currently served by a public sewer have had problems with their septic tanks.

Right now, theres probably about 100 residents that this will affect, said Harbison. The line will run from [Ala. highway] 69 off Lindsey road back to a subdivision on Buettner Drive. It's something the city has known about for a while and tried to pursue. Weve recognized that there was a problem; that people have had problems for years in this section of the city with septic tank failures, having to have their tanks pumped sometimes twice a year.

Once work on the project expected to take a year is finished, Harbisons hopeful the new line will offer prospective homebuilders an incentive to locate in Good Hope.

The good thing about this is that there's a lot of raw land in between Lindsey Road and Buettner Drive where we have spots for potential future residential development, he said. But, there has to be a sewer infrastructure there if we want to have that opportunity.

The project will install a gravity sewer line, which transports sewage without the need for pumps used in low-pressure sewer systems. The city will have to fund the balance of the projects total cost, most likely by taking out a bank loan.

Albertville-based CDG Engineers & Associates, which had provided preliminary site planning and cost estimates for the expansion, will also serve as project engineer once the work gets underway.

Grant clears way for major sewer extension in Good Hope

Contractors for the Fox Metro Water Reclamation District are grinding and patching rough spots on roads in Oswego's Cedar Glen and Windcrest subdivisions this week.

Beginning next week, contractors will install an asphalt overlay on the streets in the two subdivisions if weather conditions permit, Jeff Humm, engineering supervisor for the agency, said Monday.

Over the past year the two subdivisions located east of Ill. Route 25 and north of Waubonsie Creek, have been a construction zone as contractors have installed sanitary sewer lines in the right-of-way adjoining the streets.

Fox Metro hired Len Cox & Sons of Crest Hill last year to complete the project at a total cost of $1,892,867.

The agency is financing the project through a low interest loan obtained from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency.

The agency undertook the project to make sanitary sewer service available to approximately 190 homes in the two subdivisions that have been served by private septic systems since the 1960s.

If their septic systems are functioning properly, Humm said homeowners are not required to hook up to the new sanitary sewer lines.

However, Humm said, homeowners will be required to connect to the new sewer lines in the future when their septic systems require repair or replacement. The Kendall County Health Department, he said, does not issue permits for repair work or replacement of septic systems if a public sanitary sewer system is available.

Many Cedar Glen and Windcrest homeowners have already decided to disconnect their septic systems and connect to the new sanitary sewer lines.

As of last Sept. 28, 50 homeowners had connected to the new sanitary sewer lines and six more connections are pending, Humm said.

DURHAMVILLE Some Durhamville homeowners will vote Tuesday whether they want to borrow money to build a $4 million system to pipe their sewage to Oneida.

If passed, the proposition would provide for the establishment of the Durhamville Sewer District in the hamlet.

The resolution provides for the construction of a sanitary sewer collection system at a maximum estimated cost of up to $4.1 million.

This will be financed through a hardship loan from the state through the Environmental Facilities Corporation. The terms of the loan include no-interest financing, payable over the next 30 years, and could save the town nearly $1 million in interest payments.

Town officials say there have been issues with septic systems in the area for years.

Durhamville, bisected by Oneida Creek, is typically wet, and Town Supervisor Owen Waller has noted in the past that septic systems fail frequently, causing raw sewage to go into open ditches and other water sources. This causes health issues.

In addition, many properties in the hamlet do not have room to install a proper leach field for septic tanks.

If the project is adopted, each homeowners in the district will pay $471 per year, whether or not they choose to hook into the system. If they do hook up, they will pay about $300 per year in fees related to pumping their sewage to Oneida for treatment, said Waller.

There will also be a one-time connection fee and a DEC-regulated septic tank disconnection fee for those who choose to hook into the system.
