Septic Tank Service
$1,032,500
I’m not a person that has ever written one these reviews but I feel potential customers should know what I had to endure. I had a full tank and drain field replacement. I started this process in January and they finished the work 06/28, not to mention I didn’t receive the updated invoice until 08/06. Communication, setting expectations, and executed work have all been horrendous. Communication - I’m not going to list all the scenarios but I had over a dozen different times where I had to call follow up on a situation that they could have alerted me to. Setting expectations - Everything ran late with no follow up. Aside from the obvious 5-6 month timeframe, I woke up early, called out of work, and cancelled plans for events this company never showed up to. Executed work - The main driver for this job was to relocate my tank and drain field so I could build a larger shed in my back yard, all of this was explained to them. 2/5 of the drain field was placed in my build area forcing me to change plans with my contractor and I will need to build a much smaller shed. Additionally they killed my plumeria tree, concaved a wall on the existing shed, dented my chainlink fence, severed my internet line and wrecked my yard beyond what I thought was possible. I was reimbursed $250 total, with $100 being the internet cord. I would have never agreed to do business with this company if I know the level of indifference. I hope this review will give new customers pause.

Horrible experience with these guys. They came didn't listen to me as to where the leak was in my plumbing, cut out big hole in my wall that was unnecessary instead of going in the crawl space which he refused to do and didn't fix my problem whatsoever because it wasn't in the wall. Now I paid $200 for them to come out and screw my wall up and not fix my plumbing problem and I have to pay to fix the wall and I lost $200 don't call these guys!!!!

Septic Tank Service
$37,500
Call Brownies Oct 2022 sine they had pumped my septic tank April 2022, told the lady in the phone I didn’t know if it needed to be pumped but water backed up in my showers and drains slow. A plumber had been out a few days before and scoped my lines for any blockage but not any. The guy came and my husband was home and he just pumped the tank told him it might last a week plumbing issue. Charge $375 and it did nothing shower still backed up and when I got the report it said drain field was draining slow. The guy never mentioned it. Very disappointed I paid for a service I did not need.
Response from

"Mrs. [Member Name Removed], I am sorry for your confusion and frustration. You had a plumber come out and they told you that you did not have a blockage and to call a septic company. We came out and our technician pump your septic tank as instructed. Once he pumped your tank he can then diagnose your septic system and he then told you that your drainfield appear to be failing. The only way you can check to see if a drain field is not functioning properly is to pump out the tank first. It cannot be done any other way!!! I am sorry you did not like the news that you septic system is failing and now you want to write a bad review as if we did something wrong. YOU hired us to pump out your septic tank which cost $375. We did that and then checked your system for FREE and diagnosed that your drain field is failing. You are right, it did not fix your problem of slow drainage because that will require a new septic system. But that does not mean you should NOT pay for the service provided. YOU PAID for a service that YOU ABSOLUTELY NEEDED and not you have the answer to what exactly is causing your problem. You can't evaluate a septic system when it is full, that is why it has to be pumped out. Again, we are sorry you did not understand this process. MARC"

This company is a fraud. They pumped my septic system in April 2022. Tenants started to have sewer issues a few month later. I hired another to inspect and they found that the inlet tank was not pumped. Don't use this company for anything.
Response from

"[Member Name Removed], Usually, I try to be polite in responding to reviews BUT never call our company, Brownie's Septic and Plumbing a fraud. You do not know what you are talking about, and it is illiterate. We have been servicing the wonderful people if Orlando since 1948. Over the last 74 years we have helped over 50,000 customers. We pumped your tank 6 months ago. It [Member Information Removed] fill back up in a few days depending on the usage by your tenant. How does one another company know we didn't pump the dosing tank 6 months later. The answer is THEY DON'T, it is impossible to know. Do you know what your tenants flush down their toilets, do they use wet wipes, do you know what they put down their sink, do they dump cooking oil down the drain, do you even know what they put down their drains or flush down their toilet over the last 6 months. NO, you don't have any idea. But now you have a new issue with your tenant's septic system, and you want to blame the company that serviced it 6 months ago and call them a fraud. You don't even live in the residence in question, so you have NO knowledge of what going down their drains or down their toilets, but you immediately assume we did something wrong. What a shame. Your dosing tank should not ever be packed with solids whether it was pumped out 6 months ago or not. So, maybe you should take your frustrations out on your tenants, since that is the only [Member Information Removed] you tank could be in that condition. MARC"

Everything is great! The technician picked out the perfect faucet and fixed a problem that we have had for years while doing it. My mother can't drive so the tech went and got the faucet for her. Will definitely use if I need a company again

Tech was very professional. I was worried because I did not know exactly where my tank was. He found the tank quickly and only had to uncover a small area to find the pump out lid. The tank was pumped and cleaned quickly. I am very satisfied.

I just moved in to a new house and already had plumbing issues in two bathrooms! I immediately called Brownie's and spoke with the plumbing manager who was very pleasant to talk to on the phone. He got someone to come out right away. Thomas came out and fixed my toilet and was nice enough to fix another issue I didn't even know I had. I will definitely call Brownie's again for any future problems!
