Nobody likes to talk about that dirty little secret sitting in their yard, but if the wastewater system for your home is a cesspool, talk about it you must. Since it collects all of the water that you flush down your toilets and drains, it’s a pretty integral part of your home. Just like any other part of your house, your cesspool needs to be maintained.
Here’s a look at some of the top reasons why having a Long Island cesspool company maintain your wastewater disposal system is an absolute must.
Imagine when you’re taking a shower, you end up standing in a tub full of water up to your ankles. Picture the stench of raw sewage filling your home and property. Visualize flushing the toilet and instead of going down, the water (and everything in it) comes pouring back out.
These are just some of the scenarios that could become a reality if you fail to maintain your cesspool. Though a septic tank can accommodate a good bit of water, there’s only so much that it can hold before it reaches capacity. Plus, all of that muck that gets flushed down the drains can get clogged in the pipes that lead to the tank. There’s also the risk of tree roots pushing their way through one of the components of your system, causing extensive damage that would require a new Long Island cesspool installation. By having your septic system professionally maintain, you can avoid total chaos and the inconvenience and expense that comes along with it. You should schedule yearly inspections and arrange for a pumping every three to five years.
Your Home will be a Safer Place
You may be your castle, but you definitely don’t want a moat of wastewater around it! Not only is it gross, but it’s also highly dangerous.
When you fail to maintain your septic system, a backup is pretty much inevitable. When your system overflows, you and your entire family are at risk of harm. The wastewater and sewage that your cesspool holds are extremely volatile. Anyone who is exposed to a cesspool backup is at risk of suffering serious health problems.
Not only will having your cesspool maintained to reduce the chances of a backup, but it will also minimize the chances of a collapse. Though septic tanks are very durable, with age, constant use, and improper maintenance, they can collapse. A cesspool collapse is a serious hazard that has the potential to be fatal.
By having your system inspected and maintained, you can avoid these complications, thereby improving the safety of your entire family.
You might be avoiding cesspool maintenance because you don’t want another bill to pay; however, by avoiding service, you’re going to end up spending big bucks in the future.
Poorly maintained septic systems overflow, and cleaning up the mess can cost a small fortune. If it fails or collapses, Long Island cesspool installation will be necessary, the price tag of which can be quite high. Having your septic system professionally maintained, you’ll actually end up saving yourself a good chunk of change in the long run.
Plainview is a hamlet and census-designated place (CDP) located near the North Shore of Long Island in the town of Oyster Bay in Nassau County, New York, United States. The population of the CDP as of 2010 was 26,217. The Plainview post office has the ZIP code 11803.
Plainview’s origins date to 1648, when Robert Williams, a settler from Wales, bought land in the area. The land was considered desirable for farming because of a small pond named the Moscopas by local Native Americans, meaning “hole of dirt and water”. The remainder of the land in the area was purchased by Thomas Powell in 1695 as part of the Bethpage Purchase. The name “Mannatto Hill” had already appeared on the 1695 deed of the Bethpage Purchase, and the settlement came to be called “Manetto Hill”. Manitou was the Native American word either for “god” or for “spirit”.
The 1837 arrival of the Long Island Rail Road to nearby Hicksville brought a boom to local farming. In 1885, residents of Manetto Hill petitioned the United States Postal Service for a local post office, but were turned down because, according to several accounts, a similar name was already in use upstate. The hamlet was then named “Plainview”, for the view of the Hempstead Plains from the top of the Manetto Hills.
Plainview remained a farming community, famous for growing cucumbers for the huge Heinz pickle factories located in nearby Farmingdale and Hicksville. In the early 1900s blight destroyed the cucumber crop and many farmers switched to potatoes. After World War II, a potato blight combined with the desire of many returning GIs to leave New York City for the more rural Long Island, convinced many farmers to sell their property, leading to massive development in the area, giving rise to so-called suburban sprawl. Between 1950 and 1960, the hamlet grew from a population of 1,155 to more than 35,000. Most of the available land was developed during this period or otherwise designated as parkland. While overall development declined it did continue sporadically as smaller remaining parcels of land were also developed. In recent years, some of the few large remaining parcels have given way to gated communities, which are in contrast to most housing in the area. Some of these developments include “The Hamlet on Olde Oyster Bay” and “The Seasons at Plainview”, a residential community focused on over age 55 residents and first time home buyers.
