I used their services in June of this year. Excellent service and Neil and his partner came to pump our septic in the pouring rain. That's dedication. Thank you once again.

Report
I called in the morning worried sick about a seriously blocked septic tank and the technician was there within a couple of hours to "pump us out" and avoid sewage pouring into our back yard. It was obvious it had not been pumped for many, many years but he tackled the job cheerfully, professionally and most thoroughly. He gave us helpful information on how to prevent further problems and what to look out for should the tank still be blocked further down. So far, so good. We can not thank them enough. Needless to say we are now booked for regular pumping.
