We’ve been solving these exact problems for South Huntington families since 1998. The difference is simple—we fix the actual problem, not just the symptoms you’re seeing.

Our repair services cover the full range of cesspool problems South Huntington homeowners face: damaged pipes, broken covers, structural settling, and system malfunctions that cause backups and slow drainage.
Many local systems present unique challenges. South Huntington has numerous pre-1970s homes with original cesspools reaching the end of their design life. These older systems often develop pipe disconnections, cover deterioration, or structural cracks requiring specialized repair approaches.
We handle everything from simple baffle replacements to complex structural repairs. Whether your system needs minor adjustments or major reconstruction, our team has the experience and equipment to restore proper function without unnecessary complications or delays.
Key warning signs point to repair needs beyond routine maintenance. Persistent slow drainage after recent pumping, sewage odors that won’t go away, wet spots in your yard, or frequent backups typically indicate structural problems requiring repair work.
Other red flags include gurgling sounds from drains, toilets that won’t flush properly, or visible ground settling around your cesspool area. These symptoms suggest damaged components that prevent proper system function regardless of how recently it was pumped.
During our inspection, we quickly determine whether you need actual repairs or if pumping and cleaning will solve the problem. The key difference: pumping removes waste buildup, while repairs fix broken parts that stop your system from working correctly.
Pipe damage tops the list, especially in older South Huntington neighborhoods. Inlet and outlet pipes crack or disconnect due to ground movement and age, causing backups and slow drainage throughout the house.
Cover problems run a close second. Older concrete covers crack, shift, or deteriorate completely, creating safety hazards and allowing debris into your system. We replace these with modern, durable alternatives that last decades longer.
Structural settling affects many local systems due to Long Island’s soil conditions and the age of area cesspools. We regularly repair wall cracks, address foundation shifting, and fix baffle damage in systems that have them. Each repair is tailored to the specific problem and system type.
Most repairs finish within a few hours to one full day, depending on complexity. Simple fixes like cover replacement or minor pipe repairs typically take 2-4 hours from start to finish.
Complex repairs involving structural damage or extensive pipe replacement may require a full day or occasionally extend to a second day if significant excavation is needed. We always give you realistic timeframes upfront so you can plan accordingly.
Emergency repairs that restore basic function often happen quickly to get your household back to normal. Any additional work gets scheduled at your convenience. Our priority is minimizing disruption to your daily routine while ensuring the repair is done properly.
Not necessarily. We always start with the least invasive approach and only recommend excavation when it’s truly required for a proper, lasting repair.
Many repairs—cover replacement, baffle work, certain pipe fixes—happen with minimal or no digging. When excavation is necessary, we minimize the affected area and restore your landscaping as much as possible after completing the work.
Before starting any project, we explain exactly what’s required and how it will impact your property. If digging is needed, we coordinate timing to minimize inconvenience and ensure you know what to expect throughout the entire process.
Repair costs depend on the problem type and extent, but we always provide upfront pricing before starting work. Minor repairs like cover replacement or simple pipe fixes typically cost a few hundred dollars, while major structural work can reach several thousand.
System age, accessibility, and repair complexity affect pricing. We provide free estimates and explain all options, including whether repair makes financial sense versus replacement based on your system’s overall condition and long-term needs.
Most importantly, you get honest assessment from experienced professionals who won’t oversell unnecessary work. We’ve built our reputation on fair pricing and transparent communication about what repairs are actually needed versus what would be nice to have.
Absolutely. We stand behind every repair with warranties that give you confidence in our work quality. Specific warranty terms depend on repair type and materials used, but we guarantee our workmanship on all jobs.
Major repairs involving structural work or pipe replacement come with extended warranty coverage that protects your investment. Smaller repairs also include appropriate warranty protection to ensure your complete satisfaction.
Our warranty isn’t just paperwork—we’re a local, family-owned business serving South Huntington for over 25 years. If something isn’t right, we return and make it right. That’s how we’ve built our community reputation and why customers continue trusting us with their cesspool needs.
