Let me share the brutal truth: most HVAC failures happen because someone skipped a step. Didn’t calculate the load correctly. Used cheap equipment. Got wrong the insulation needs. We have fixed dozens of these failures. And each and every time, we file away another lesson. Like in 2017, when we decided on adding remote monitoring to every installation. Why? Because Sarah, our lead tech, got sick of watching homeowners waste money on poor temperature control. Now clients save hundreds yearly.
I need to share with you something most septic companies won’t: there are two types of people in this reality. Those who assume septic systems are just “buried containers for waste,” and those that have had raw sewage gurgling into their backyard at midnight. I understood this distinction the difficult way in 2005—waist-deep in muck, freezing in a Washington deluge, as my family and I aided a veteran installer restore our family’s failed system. I was 14. My hands were raw. My pants were destroyed. But that evening, something clicked: This is not just manual labor. It’s people’s lives we are preserving.
This is the harsh truth: nearly all septic companies just service tanks. They act like temporary salesmen at a chainsaw convention. But Septic Solutions? They’re unique. It all originated back in the early 2000s when Art and his siblings—just kids barely tall enough to shoulder a shovel—helped install their family’s septic system alongside a grizzled pro. Visualize this: three kids buried in Pennsylvania clay, learning how soil porosity affects drainage while their buddies played Xbox. “We never just dig holes,” Art explained to me last winter, steaming coffee cup in hand. “We learned how earth whispers truths. A patch of cattails here? That’s Mother Nature yelling ‘high water table.'”
