Good point. I had the old, rusty 750 gallon tank replaced about 20 years ago with a 1000 gallon fiberglass. I think it was around $2,500, including rerouting some of the piping since they couldn't remove the old tank as it was under the deck. The deck was off the 2nd floor of the house but they were afraid of compromising the structural integrity of the posts. I shudder to think of replacing the leech fields. My next door neighbor had it done a few years ago. I'm sure I can't be far behind as all the houses were built at the same time / same construction company. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about it like a started dough for bread, but just a different type of yeast. 🫣🤢 We have something similar to what Jim suggested that we buy it at TSC. I like the product Jim posted. Hope everyone had their dinner by now...Before we sold our house in NJ we had to have the elbow type fitting replaced that goes to the Grey water tank. The guy actually had to climb down into the tank with a ladder and make the fix. Also he had no mask on, I don't know if he held his breathe or what. What a shitty job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I‘ve done my best to forget how much the system cost, but it was a lot. 🤯 I guess it is better than an outhouse and leaves. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have city sewer, not septic, but we have had a backup of our main sewer line twice. Luckily, if there can be a luckily, it was contained in the shower pan. We have since found out that our main sewer line has a repair in it, about 54 feet out from the foundation, which was not declared to us when we purchased the house. There is root intrusion into the pipe in that area, which is very common. We now have a drain company come about every two years to auger the line to clear it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I bought land for my house I only considered lots that had sewer and natural gas lines in the street. I grew up in Manhattan and never heard of a septic tank until my married friend bought a house that had one. 1 hour ago, George C said: Have a great trip to my favorite city and please give us updates.

I get a monthly update from Goodreads with all the upcoming mysteries/detective type books coming out. Those keep me very busy.

With The Walking Dead wrapping up in a few weeks, I'll have an extra hour to fill in my TV schedule. Plus, I can join the conversations! In 2023 there will be 4 new shows with members of the Walking Dead cast. One will star the characters Negan and Maggie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy that owned the house before me was the original owner when the house was built in 1964. Let's just say he thought building codes were a suggested guidelines, kinda like Royals chair hog policy.😆 Back then, everyone knew everyone in town, played in the same dart & bowling leagues, kids played on the same football team, etc. You get the idea. There was a lot of looking the other way, one-hand-washes-the-other kinds of thing. Took forever for us to close on the house while brought all the permits & Certificate of Occupancy's, etc somewhat up-to-date. Or paid off a few town employees. I can't wait to see what road blocks I hit when I sell the house. BTW, the new tank is mostly out in the open.
