I called the Friday before Easter with unreasonable expectations that they would be able to pump my…read moreseptic. The waste water plant was closed and Pile's trucks were full. "Tuesday," he said. I pleaded for earlier and he said he could maybe schedule Monday. "Great." I had located and dug up the tank cover. Two phases were executed by Karly Pile's men. A worker arrived to install an access cover, consisting of seriously heavy-gauge ribbed PVC and a screw-down plug with gasket. With the piles of hand-dug dirt and as quickly as reasonably possible, he re-buried the hole. The access was at ground level with the cover placed on top. Nobody should have the huge problem finding it I did. The second gentleman arrived not long afterward and pumped the tank, including back-washing it to get some stubborn bottom sludge. He inspected the interior and gave me some excellent advice and insight. He screwed down the cover screws, loaded up his rig and left. "We will send you the bill," he had told me. All professional. You'd think someone working in this line of work might be bitter but both gentleman exhibited upbeat attitudes, intellect, and professional efficiency. Highly recommended.

Chris in the Office was wonderfully informative; she knew the story of area septic companies and…read morethat Pile's had records of our property going way back. Ryan, one of the two drivers of the Pile's trucks we had long seen passing our house, knew exactly to move past our 7.5 check-out PVC cap to the concrete septic lid underneath. He was cheerful, friendly, and informative. He advised 3 to 4 years before calling again. I hope he and Chris will still be with Pile's then! The amount we paid was slightly less than the estimate, based upon what Ryan actually found to pump. Very straight ahead! Pile's is a real find!

That diagnosis was wrong. Hendrik, a Master Plumber and co-owner/field manager, came out first -- honest, clearly experienced, and knowledgeable from the first conversation. He gave us a fair quote and was flexible with us throughout, never pushing or pressuring. The next day, technician Tyler found the actual problem almost immediately: a blockage 10 feet further down the WSSC-maintained line than the other company ever assessed. Both Hendrik and Tyler jumped on reporting it to WSSC right away and called it correctly as an emergency -- WSSC had a crew on site within about 2 hours, faster than we expected, and their independent findings matched Tyler's exactly. The part that really won us over: once it was clear this was WSSC's responsibility -- no paid job for Service Force -- Hendrik and Tyler didn't disappear. They kept helping until it was actually fixed, with zero financial stake left in the outcome. Tyler had every chance to push more paid testing first. He chose honesty instead. True integrity, respect for our home, fair pricing, and top-tier expertise from ownership down to the field crew. Service Force Plumbing has earned our trust and all of our future business.
