APlus Septic replaced our leach field. Here is our story. I have been a facilities manager for commercial and residential properties. I have direct knowledge of septic systems and landscaping. The original quote included installing a temporary road to gain access to our back yard. The day the owner started he used the front lawn and did not protect the soft ground with mating. He rutted my nice front lawn. He did not reimburse the additional money to install the temporary road.
I was not onsite to witness whether or not he properly scarfed the ground prior to installing the leach field. I did not see any equipment to complete this either. He seemed to be in a rush and were not happy being there. It was clear later when he said they were losing money, because he gave us a low price when he was not busy. There was not enough loam put on the top on ground he disturbed. The seed mix was very thin. I ended up having to add my own soil and seed. He threw several large 25 plus pound rocks under my ornamental tree. After the first rain storm his poor grading revealed the low spots and lack of proper drainage. I had water ponding when before I never had for over 25 years! When he spread the hay he drove over it with a hay spreader and his six wheeled truck over the freshly graded ground. Nice job! NOT!!!
We spoke with him and received an unsympathetic harsh reply. read more
