"They listen to what I had to say. They went to check the system with no obligation. They worked on an alternative that was less costly in the long run for me. They also discovered that my septic tank (solids tank)and was almost full, they said it had probably not been emptied for about 8 years! I used a long time Septic drainage company in the local that claimed they did empty it, but should be emptied every two years. Wish is hard to believe because we are only there about 6 month of the year, were only 2. I believe they solved the true probably that I have spend thousands to solve."

"

They had a year’s guarantee on their work, but that just ran out and I am now past the window. They charged me $985 since it was a very involved plumbing job and not a simple problem. There was another plumber who came out to my house and told me that these guys weren’t even plumbers and shouldn’t have done that kind of work. They had a nice advertisement and they came in a very nice truck with the logo on it as well. I thought Mr. Rooter Plumbing was a professional outfit and they were, but they weren’t actually plumbers. They don’t actually have a plumbing certification. I explained the problem to Mr. Rooter Plumbing. I knew that it was going to be a big expensive thing and I had about $800 in my mind. So, I wasn’t mad when they told me that it would cost $985. Their pricing was fair. They had a notebook with everything that you could do. They could check it out and do it. It looked like they were a professional organization. They are using a similar name of a franchise. They came with all their equipment. They cut holes in my ceiling between two levels in my house. So, it was a really huge thing and I thought that most plumbers wouldn’t be able to do it. They got it done and so far it has been good. They did do a good job, but it wasn’t cheap. Their work is still intact and it has been over a year. They did know what they were doing even though they weren’t plumbers. They just didn’t have a plumbing certification and the other plumbers in the area don’t like that. However, they did the service that they came to do and they did it well. They showed up in a large truck with all kinds of plumbing equipment on it. I think they had about $50000 to $80000 worth of equipment on their truck. I thought the price was high, but I had an emergency. They came out the same day I called them. Whereas the others said that they would come out in 2 or 3 days. I would probably not use their services again and I am going to use a master plumber for any other plumbing problem. I am going to use someone who is actually a plumber. I don’t know if Mr. Rooter Plumbing would have stood behind the guarantee if something bad would have happened.

"So far when Choice Home Warranty is needed they are right trying all there mite to complete what need that I have. I call about my heating system today and they started right then trying to locate a technician to repair or as they say replace. I just know it's very cold and we need the heat very much there is small children in the home. I believe the CHW will do what they say they'll do and more."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

FAQs for septic system installation and replacement projects in Moravia, NY

Most septic system replacements require several days to complete, not including permitting and preparation time. The process begins with site assessment and testing, followed by excavation, component installation, and final inspection. Weather conditions, property accessibility, and inspection schedules can all affect your project timeline. Your contractor can provide a more specific estimate based on your property's unique characteristics.

Standard homeowners' insurance policies don't cover septic system replacement due to age or normal deterioration. Coverage may apply if damage results from specific covered events, but routine maintenance and eventual replacement are generally considered homeowner responsibilities. Review your policy details or speak with your insurance agent to understand your specific coverage limitations.

Look for multiple indicators such as slow-draining fixtures, unusual gurgling sounds in plumbing, sewage odors inside or outside your home, or wet spots in your yard. Unusually lush grass over the drain field area, frequent backups, or recurring repair needs might signal system failure. Addressing these warning signs promptly can prevent property damage and health hazards.

DIY septic installation is not recommended and may violate local regulations. Professional installation ensures compliance with health codes, proper design for your specific site conditions, and appropriate safety measures. The specialized equipment, technical knowledge, and permitting requirements make this a job best left to licensed professionals who can guarantee the system's safety and effectiveness.

With proper maintenance, including regular pumping, a drain field lasts 20 years. Various factors influence system longevity, including household size, water usage patterns, and soil conditions. Regular professional inspections can help determine when replacement becomes necessary. If your system requires increasingly frequent repairs, replacement might be more economical than continuing to address individual problems.
