"We Need Each Other"
BrentInord
Let me tell you something the majority of septic companies won't: there are two types of people in this life. Those who think septic systems are merely "buried containers for waste," and those that have had raw sewage gurgling into their backyard at 2 AM. I understood this reality the difficult way in 2005—waist-deep in mud, trembling in a Washington rainstorm, as my brothers and I aided a veteran installer fix our family's collapsed system. I was 14. My hands blistered. My pants were wrecked. But that evening, something changed: This ain't just digging. It's people's lives that we're preserving.
Here's the dirty truth: nearly all septic companies just pump tanks. They act like temporary salesmen at a chainsaw convention. But Septic Solutions? They are special. It all started back in the beginning of the 2000s when Art and his siblings—just kids hardly tall enough to lift a shovel—assisted install their family's septic system alongside a grizzled pro. Imagine this: three youngsters waist-deep in Pennsylvania clay, understanding how soil porosity affects drainage while their buddies played Xbox. "We did not just dig ditches," Art told me last winter, warm coffee cup in hand. "We understood how earth whispers truths. A patch of marsh plants here? That's Mother Nature screaming 'high water table.'"
