Services & Process

Dylan and Ralphs Plumbing handles residential plumbing repairs, water heater installation and replacement, and septic system services. On the septic side, this includes tank pumping, system inspections, and troubleshooting problems that originate from the connection between the home's plumbing and the septic tank. Water heater work covers both traditional tank units and tankless systems. Because all these systems connect inside the home, having one crew familiar with the full picture can make diagnosis faster and more accurate.

Service Area

Dylan and Ralphs Plumbing covers Shelby Township and the surrounding Macomb County area. Communities like Sterling Heights, Utica, Rochester Hills, and Washington Township are likely within their service range for both plumbing and septic calls.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a plumber also handle septic system problems?
Yes, when a provider is licensed for both trades. Plumbing and septic systems are directly connected, so a company skilled in both can trace problems from the drain inside your home all the way to the tank and drain field.
Does using a water softener affect my septic system in Shelby Township?
It can. Backwash from water softeners adds salt and excess water to the tank, which can disrupt the bacterial balance and increase the frequency of pump-outs. It's worth discussing with your service provider if you have both.
What plumbing problems are linked to septic system issues?
Slow drains, gurgling sounds in pipes, and sewage backups can all point to a full or failing septic tank rather than a pipe blockage. A provider who handles both can quickly determine which system is the root cause.
How long does a septic tank last in Michigan?
A concrete septic tank that's properly maintained can last 40 years or more. Plastic and fiberglass tanks are also durable but may be more prone to damage during installation in colder climates. Regular inspections help catch problems early.
Should I replace my water heater if I'm also having septic work done?
Not necessarily, but it's a good time to have it evaluated if it's older. Coordinating both jobs with the same provider can save you a second service call and may reduce overall costs.
How do I find my septic tank if I don't know where it's located?
A septic professional can locate the tank using a probe rod, inspection records from the county, or a small camera sent through a cleanout line. Macomb County health department records may also have a site plan on file for your property.
