I need to share with you something the majority of septic companies will not: there are two categories of people in this life. Those who believe septic systems are just "buried containers for waste," and those who've had raw sewage erupting into their yard at the dead of night. I understood this reality the tough way in 2005—knee-deep in muck, trembling in a Washington deluge, as my brothers and I aided a veteran installer restore our family's failed system. I was a teenager. My hands ached. My clothes were destroyed. But that evening, something crystallized: This is not just digging. It's people's lives we're protecting. Let me share the harsh truth: the majority of septic companies just service tanks. They act like temporary salesmen at a chainsaw convention. But Septic Solutions? They're different. It all began back in the beginning of the 2000s when Art and his siblings—just kids hardly tall enough to shoulder a shovel—helped install their family's septic system alongside a experienced pro. Imagine this: three pre-teens waist-deep in Pennsylvania clay, learning how soil permeability affects drainage while their friends played Xbox. "We never just dig trenches," Art told me last winter, hot coffee cup in hand. "We learned how earth whispers truths. A patch of marsh plants here? That's Mother Nature shouting 'high water table.'" https://convivea.com/forums/index.php/topic,14374.0.html
