Our house dates from 1949, as did the septic tank, a galvanized tin container about 6' in diameter,…read moreno leach field. As the tank had caved in recently, we no longer had a functioning system (which indeed backed into the house at Christmas time.) After we trenched out the old system and at least got liquids flowing, we sought out bids to replace. Not only did the whole system have to get rebuilt to code, but we also had to deal with shale rock inches below the lawn and a wooded area leading down the hillside for the site of the leach field. Given the scope of the project, the first contractor we spoke to was never heard from again. J&R Contracting, headed up the the father and son team of Rick and Rick, arrived 2 days after we called, sized up the project, gave us a realistic estimate given the challenges of the site (e.g. assume an extra day to jack hammer through the shale to create a pit.) We said, "Sure!" Rick took a deposit to pay for the construction of a low profile holding tank, said they'd be back to do the job when the tank was ready. Sure enough, 3 weeks later, the team showed up with two backhoes, a dozer, trucks to transport in sand and topsoil, and chainsaws. We mapped out an area for the tank and leach field, and then they got to work. Over three days a level area was created for the leach field after removing some scrub trees. Specimen trees were tagged and left alone. The big project was jack hammering out the pit, as deep as I am tall. The tank was lowered in, piping connected and soil smoothed over. As J&R already had all the equipment on site, we asked for two days of extra work to bring in ten loads of sand and topsoil to regrade the lawn, reshaping to direct rainfall and winter melt away from the house foundations. The final step in late April will be to distribute shade tolerant grass seed across the new lawn. The final bill matched the original estimate. The added time and materials for sculpting the lawn was, of course, extra. The results far exceeded our expectations.

We had a septic/main line clog emergency, and they got someone out here the same day. They gave us a broad timeframe, and they also sent a text when they were on their way, which we appreciated.

They were friendly and informative, and explained everything they were doing. They were patient (I had a lot of questions) and they didn't talk down to me or overcharge. They showed me exactly what was happening in the drain (on their camera). As they used the snake, I could clearly see on the screen what was going on. They were diligent, worked very hard, and I would definitely recommend them to family and friends.

After taking all my information over the phone, the man with whom I spoke said they could send someone that same afternoon. This wound up being Jean, about whom others have given favorable reviews, to which I'll add this one. The whole experience was very professional. I was given advance notice of when he'd arrive, including a photo of him for recognition. He arrived right on time. There was a charge to do some work to determine the exact problem, and I was at first concerned about the cost. But it was worth it. Not only was he thorough, but he cleaned up afterwards, and it was just as clean as before he arrived. The work required a significant amount of time, for which I was given the chance to indicate when. I decided on the very next day. He again arrived on time and worked nonstop for over 5 hours to get the job done. The final cost exactly matched the estimate I was given the previous day. This was the best plumbing experience I've had for work on my house, and I'll definitely consider them again in the future.
