Master Plumber's license # 224991. Bonded and insured. No sub-contractors are used at Mike Ingrilli Plumbing; all employees are full-time and work directly for Mike.

"Don’t ever use this company! First, they overcharge! And, they will not come back and fix something they installed that should be warranted. We used him several times and every time they had to go back and fix what they installed. They wanted to charge us for the work that they Installed incorrectly. We are still dealing with this issue a year later. Obviously, we stopped using Ingrilli and we are with a more professional, reliable, plumbing company. Save yourself the headache and stress because there are plenty of other, qualified plumbing companies out there to use and Mike Ingrilli is not one of them! He is very rude and unprofessional!"

"The remodeler I am working with had recommended Riverside and spoke very highly of their services... so I called for help with my 2 water heaters that were both not working. I am so appreciative of the quick response and the quick fix. I had questions too about how those were configured and everything was explained to me. This was so helpful and I now have a company that I will continue to call for whatever plumbing needs I have in the future. I highly recommend Riverside. Thank you!!!"

FAQs for septic system repair projects in Milwaukee, WI

Leach field failure can often occur due to a lack of proper maintenance, hydraulic overload, or environmental factors. When too much water enters the septic system—like running multiple large laundry loads back-to-back—it can overwhelm the leach field. Regular professional inspections, ongoing maintenance, and spacing out high-water-use activities help prevent failure.

A septic tank shows repair needs when noticeable symptoms arise around your home. Noticeable signs include strong sewage odors at fixtures, recurring pipe blockages, pooling water or damp patches near the leach field, and areas of unusually bright green or spongy grass. These indicators confirm that deteriorating components or clogs exist. Monitoring such signs and scheduling timely professional inspections prevents further costly damage.

Adhering to a strict, scheduled maintenance plan prevents septic system repairs. An annual inspection and a pump-out every three to five years safeguard your system’s performance. Additionally, only flushing waste and toilet paper, installing drain filters, keeping nonapproved items out of the system, and avoiding excessive water use help maintain your septic system’s health and efficiency.
