Core and Main

I put in my own Septic ...and
I put in my own water Well ( dug with a backhoe 16 ft down)
For a remote property.

Who are they:

They sell water, sewer and drain products
Cast iron , abs, hdpe, copper, aluminum.

Why would a home owner need them.

If you are a do it yourselfer! That's why!

Paying a contractor, an engineer, etc to put in a septic could cost 15-25,000 in anchorage.

F()k that!
I was off the grid.
But wanted a legit septic.

Core and main sells schedule 40 plumbing pipe.
French drainpipe. Manhole covers...

I picked up 10' pipe
90-45 degree fittings
Splices , valves, t's, caps and glue.

Geo textile fabric to keep dirt from my French drain to keep my property dry

The best part.
I wanted a 20' section of hdpe for a well.

Holy Moses. This stuff is like gold in
Alaska.
It's a thousand dollars plus...and is sold like hot cakes.

Road construction sucks it up.
I wanted 36 or 48

Hard to acquire sizes.

Ferguson..... special order.
Another place..... special  order.

I'm not totally sure who the main customers are here .

Subdivision creators?
The state?
Cities?

They were so accommodating to this small ( not to me) customer.

Helped me load, smiled , asked questions.
Answered questions.  

I was incredibly surprised this low overhead, outdoor lot , construction focused , PROFESSIONAL, outfit.

Held me by the hand and
Sold me what I needed...,NOT what I asked for !

My review scratches the surface.

They sell
From what I can tell.

Anything for your business.  
Where the utility stops.
From hospital to home built cabin in the woods

With 10 star customer service.
