I had no idea where the tank was located and was dreading the whole process. With their sophisticated camera equipment they quickly located the tank, and within minutes had it opened up. After pumping and inspecting the system they gave it a clean bill of health. Now the tank has a riser so that it's easily accessible for the future. I could not be happier with my experience and highly recommend the company.

A quote of one price was given and then an invoice for a much higher amount was sent to me. The technician (Loren) came much earlier than the appointment time and left crap in my yard!

I recently had a drain field fail, & thought I was going to need a whole new septic system. Modern came up with an excellent alternative that saved me a lot of money, and solved the problem. WIN/WIN!!! I really appreciated the fact that they looked at alternatives that were less costly, when they could have made a lot more money. Modern's staff is wonderful - Amanda is a sweetheart, Michael is really nice & easy to work with, as are all of the other staff that showed up. I can't recommend this business enough. Family owned & operated for many years, they stand by their work, they work with YOU, & they're just truly wonderful people. I'll be asking them to hook us up to the city sewer system when needed. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
