The Septic Harsh Truth: Why Nearly All Companies Just Maintain (And We Build)

by Howardtah » Mon Dec 29, 2025 6:29 pm

Allow me to tell you something the majority of septic companies won't: there are two categories of people in this life. Those who think septic systems are simply "underground boxes for waste," and those who've had raw sewage erupting into their yard at the dead of night. I discovered this difference the difficult way in 2005—standing in sludge, trembling in a Washington deluge, as my family and I aided a weathered installer repair our family's collapsed system. I was 14. My hands blistered. My pants were ruined. But that night, something crystallized: This is not just dirt work. It's people's lives we are protecting.
Here's the harsh truth: nearly all septic companies just service tanks. They are like temporary salesmen at a demolition convention. But Septic Solutions? They are unique. It all originated back in the early 2000s when Art and his brothers—just kids barely tall enough to lift a shovel—assisted install their family's septic system alongside a grizzled pro. Picture this: three kids waist-deep in Pennsylvania clay, discovering how soil porosity affects drainage while their buddies played Xbox. "We didn't just dig holes," Art told me last winter, steaming coffee cup in hand. "We learned how soil whispers secrets. A patch of cattails here? That's Mother Nature yelling 'high water table.'"
