Recent Septic Tank Service Reviews in Santa Barbara
- Pump Daddy SepticIncredible service, great people and fast! It’s nice to finally deal with reliable , hard working people!
- Russ Clutter Backhoe ServiceRuss is a rare gem, its hard to find quality honest people these days, and Russ is good people. He was accommodating and high value. He knows his trades and then some. After his first job for our property i hired him immediately for a second related issue on our hillside, he is skilled and brings experience that will save you big. I could not recommend a better human being to manage your underground/excavation/ secptic solutions
- A Team Plumbing Services IncExcellent! Robert and his entire team is what I call on point. For me a good company is one one that communicates what needs to be done, gives you a clear and competitive quote, and finally follows through with what they say needs to be done by doing it correctly and on time. I have used them for small and big projects and their consistency is impeccable. I have multiple buildings and I need reliability. They’re my go to vendor for anything plumbing
- True Blue Plumbing and RooterI really can’t say enough good things about True Blue. Juan and his guys were A+ start to finish. First and foremost I received four separate quotes and Juan was far and away the best price. Now I’m usually a firm believer in “you get what you pay for.” With that said, I couldn’t be more satisfied with the services I received. I was outside with the guys almost the entire time because I was working on other projects in my house. Watching them work was awesome and impressive. Please let this review be a deciding factor if you’re looking for a plumber. I’m highly critical of people who do work for me. I feel like if I paying for a service I should get exactly what I want. With Juan and his guys, that’s exactly what you
- Great Falls Septic Service IncHe did a good job. Very responsive and he found solutions that other septic tank service providers did not find, it saved me a lot of money in the long run.
- Clay County Master Plumbing LLCExcellent in all respects. If you are in St. John's County, the department will try to discourage your using this company because "they are just a plumbing company" and will try to delay the permit process. Harold has all of the appropriate licensing needed for the drain field construction, and in the end, the County was very happy with his work. He used the newest in construction materials for the job, which promise to be longer lasting and will require less maintenance. He installed the equipment with minimal damage to the yard. He reseeded the yard and covered the seed appropriately to prevent erosion. I am thrilled with the work, and it was done at a price much lower than other quotes
- DARRELL'S PUMPINGGreat! Darrell was awesome! Honest, reliable service. Highly recommend. Will always use this company in the future. ☺️
- A AFFORDABLE SEPTIC SERVICE LLCIt went quick and easy. We had another company in here the week before that tore things up then told us that it would cost $8000 to fix it all. Affordable Septic was great!
- YB Cleaning ServicesYB was able to make some adjustments in their schedule to come to my property and perform the needed work on short notice. The person who answered the phone in their office was professional and pleasant, and explained to me what the options were before the work was scheduled, so I was able to make an informed decision. All in all it was a good experience
- DARRELL'S PUMPINGFair appraisal of issues to be resolved, good workmanship of actual services, and prompt resolution to a problem that included a rework of installation at no additional charge.

"I had ongoing problems and had used a well known "rooter" company but the problem kept coming back. Went to Angie's list
<br /> to find a local company actually in business rather than a national company who had a bunch of independent plumbers on speed dial. Chose Red Lilly and hit the jackpot. Giovanni came out promptly, snaked the drain from the clean out to the sewer and ran the camera through to show me the forest growing there in my 50 year old drain pipes. Gave me an estimate of between $5500 and $6500 because of several unknown factors. My house is not on flat ground so a lot of the work had to be done in very awkward positions. Also, they had to cut through artificial grass before starting to dig.
<br /> They were incredibly careful cutting the grass, then pulling it up along with the zillion nails that were holding it in place. They pulled up a section big enough to expose the area needed to be excavated. They folded that section back onto the existing lawn and covered everything around the area with a tarp. All of the dirt and the broken pipes with their fabric-like roots were dumped onto the tarp so that all the mess was very well contained.
<br /> They replaced the exposed pipes and relined the pipes going under the street to the sewer. They got to work on time, had a full crew, got in and out with very little noise or mess. When the crew came to work, they were neat and clean and even their trucks were clean. When the job was done, the hole was filled and the grass was returned to its original position, nails were replaced and it looks perfect. They even brought in the same special sandy gravel for the top layer just as the original supplier had done so the nails held better.
<br /> While doing this job, Giovanni brought to my attention that the horizontal pipes were not in very good shape under the house.
<br /> Bear in mind, these are also 50 year old, cast iron type pipes which are exposed to the elements. I was able to see that a number of them were leaking and many were rusty. Since we had the ground dug up, it made a lot of sense to go ahead to
<br /> replace them rather than waiting for another year or so and then having to re-dig to attach new ones to the new drains.
<br /> The price was $4000 for this part of the job. In the meantime, we settled the bill for the first part AND THE PRICE WAS
<br /> THE LOW END OF $5500 , NOT THE HIGH END.
<br /> Replacing the horizontal pipes required the crew to work on scaffolding which is not easy but they were very efficient and did a great job.
<br /> Obviously, I am very pleased with the work and the efficiency. I have compared prices and experiences with some of my
<br /> neighbors and know that I got a fair deal price wise and much better service.

"A year ago Drain Master replaced the sewer from front of house and did a fiberglass lining to city sewer. Great job and no issue since.
However a few days ago an issue happened with the sewer from guesthouse: Drain Master had apparently condemned it not knowing we had a guesthouse. Back then we were new owners and I didn’t know the guesthouse had its own sewer line. I reached out to Drain Master and they were quick to respond, own the issue and fix it in 2 days at no cost. Very professional. I would use them again.

"On a scale of 1-10, Red Hat Plumbing gets a 12! Amazing performance and skill. Could not be happier! And if you think I'm happy, you should see my wife! Long story short, they arrived Monday morning, dug a 2'x3' inspection hole 4' deep and installed an inspection clean-out by 11:30. Video revealed all central drain cast-iron to be totally worn-out. Going through the center bathroom slab, they dug a cavity and removed all drain plumbing by Tuesday afternoon. They replaced all that with ABS pipe by Wednesday afternoon. Passed inspection, refilled cavity, poured concrete beautifully (with rebar) and were done completely by Thursday afternoon. Waited for concrete to cure 48 hours, put toilet back in. Ready for this? Everything was spotless when done. And that really did it for my wife. Can't say enough wonderful things about Red Hat Plumbing. As we used to say in the Navy, "Outstanding!"

Septic tank companies that service Santa Barbara
Septic Tank Service FAQ
-
What are the signs your septic tank is full?
Answer: There are several signs that indicate your septic tank could be full. These include standing water over your septic tank, a strong odor coming from your yard, gurgling water, slow drains, or a sewage backup. While many of these signs could also be indicative of a clogged system, they should all be checked out by a professional ASAP to avoid costly damages. In the absence of any of these signs, it’s recommended that septic tanks be emptied every 3 to 5 years on average.
-
How often should a septic tank be serviced?
Answer: On average, septic tanks should be serviced every 3 to 5 years in the absence of any worrying signs that the tank is clogged or full. The size of your septic tank, the number of people living in your home, and your average water usage will all impact how often your septic tank needs to be serviced.
-
What are the most common causes of septic tank failure?
Answer: The most common cause of septic tank failure is improper maintenance. Failing to pump a septic tank on the appropriate schedule will cause septic tank failure and likely result in a costly septic tank repair or replacement. On average, septic tanks should be pumped every 3 to 5 years, but the size of your tank, the number of people in your home, and your average water usage may shorten or extend this timeframe.
-
How much does it cost to pump a septic tank?
Answer: The cost to pump a septic tank is $400 on average or about $0.30 per gallon. The size of your septic tank, as well as local labor costs, will impact the cost of pumping your septic tank. Most septic tanks are between 600 and 2,000 gallons in size, meaning the average cost range is between $180 to $600.
-
How much does it cost to install a septic system?
Answer: The cost to install a septic tank system is between $3,060 and $9,810, on average. The size of the septic tank you choose, the land you’re installing it on, the type of system you choose, and local labor costs will all influence the total cost of installing a septic system. Anaerobic septic tanks (those that don’t need oxygen) typically cost between $3,000 and $8,000. Aerobic systems, which utilize oxygen to activate bacteria and are popular on smaller properties, usually cost between $10,000 and $20,000.
-
How long does a septic system last?
Answer: When septic systems are well maintained, they can last up to 30 years or more. If a septic system isn’t properly maintained, such as when it isn’t pumped regularly, it may malfunction and require costly repairs or a premature replacement. In general, septic tank pumping is recommended every 3 to 5 years to ensure the septic system lasts as long as possible.
