Can you build a box around the access cover so it doesn't need dug back out again for further sucking?

Yeah they call them risers and it's a great idea. This has an "over sized hole"
so the guy couldn't give me a price but said they could do it. I think he said the normal size ones are $150. But I was thinking why couldn't I just lay up bricks or pavers with a nice big rock over the top...Or maybe a fake well or planter or something so no one falls in

I put a rock as a marker. This way it's the only spot you need to dig.

I was thinking this as a minimum

We've got a concrete bird bath over ours - just move that & start diggin.

AND I have actually been wanting a bird bath...even was shopping for them in the past month!! Great idea.


BUT, I still do have an issue. There is a restriction in the pipe where it enters the septic. Not sure yet if it's roots, a nasty plug, or a collapsed pipe, but it is working well enough for right now. I'm going to hit it with acid here at bedtime and let that brew all night. So I might be replacing a section of pipe. Might just rent an excavator for a week and do a new perimeter drain around the house, and blow out my out concrete steps....Make a regular ol' project out of it!

And my hearing aids are fixed, hallelujah !!

Ugh, I gotta get to bed. :eyesmoke:

Morning, super hazy here today and yesterday from forest fires on the other side of Lake Superior. They're recommending people stay indoors today.

Stupid shoulder pain came back this morning. Same as last time like there's a golf ball under my shoulder blade and it hurts like hell to lift my arm above my head or sit up straight. Think I need to set up a doctor's appointment.

Trimming arm? Oh no, hope it's just a stress injury. Good luck

The Mrs. had a "Knot" in about the same spot for years. A chiropractor of all people told her she needed to have her Dr. check her Gall bladder. They removed it (full of gravel) the next week.

Hope it's nothing. Do you ever get pinched nerves? Very bad ones stop motion. Does it hurt while you're still?

Hope it isn't gallbladder! Eeeeek

Not that I recall. I had this exact same pain several months ago and it lasted about a week and went away on its own. It's doesn't hurt if I sit still. If sit normally with my back straight it's uncomfortable so I'm slouching lol.
