I assume they tank was pumped, although they weren't here very long and everyone says it should take at least 30-45 minutes to get the job done.
I was told they would call 30 minutes prior to arrival, time that I needed to make sure my dogs were in the house. They didn't call, just showed up stating they were in the neighborhood. Fortunately the dogs ran to the front door when they heard the doorbell and I dashed to close the patio door so they couldn't get back into the yard.
Once they left, I opened the patio door so the dogs could go back outside. I finished what I was doing on the computer, then went out to the yard to check the area they were working on. I freaked out when I saw they had left my back gate standing wide open. My dogs are like family and if they would have gotten out and gotten hurt there would have been h*** to pay.  The dogs were busy sniffing the area that had been dug up so fortunately they didn't notice the open gate. I also wasn't happy to find they had dragged my garden hose into the yard by the tank and just left it there.
They did come between 9 and 12 as they said they would, and the price quoted was exactly what I paid but I don't think I would use them again based on my comments above.
Response from Reliable Septic & Services
"(member name removed), Thank you for taking the time to inform us of what happened during your encounter with our company. Having 8 rescued dogs myself this really hits close to home and I too would have been upset if my gate had been left open at my home and any one of my dogs (babies) would have gotten out. With that being said I want you to know that it is with my deepest apologies that my crew did not do the few key steps that are the most crucial part of our service. The first step would be to call you letting you know when our estimated time of arrival would be. This step is very important in our line of work due to unforeseen emergencies that often come up and as a professional courtesy to our customers. The driver has been made fully aware that this is the expectation on every job. The fact that you did not receive your phone call helps me see where we need to improve when it comes to our customer interaction and service. The second area of concern you addressed was the hose being left out by the tank and the gate being left open. Unfortunately, that was plain and simply a case of them not going back and checking over the work area before they pulled out to leave. I cannot stress enough that this step is the most important to me, I take pride in my business and on a daily basis this step is being reiterated with my entire crew because it is very important that when we leave a job, no matter how big or small, that we leave it as it was when we arrived or better. As far as the ”C” ratings you gave us on Responsiveness, Punctuality and Professionalism I do hope you take into account your entire experience with us from the beginning to the end. When you reached out to us through Angie's list you immediately received a response from us, followed by a phone call and then another follow-up response letting you know that we have called so we could schedule your appointment. When you called back to schedule your appointment you actually received a $20 discount for being an Angie's list member rather than the typical $10 off. And as you already mentioned we arrived in the time slot we provided as well. All demonstrating our quick response time, punctuality and professionalism. As far as the amount of time that it takes to pump out your septic tank, that all will depend on the size of the tank you have, how many tanks you have and if you are experiencing any problems that need to be addressed during your visit. However, our truck pumps 110 gallons per minute and for a typical 900 gallon septic tank it should take approximately 7-10 minutes to pump out the tank, that does not include digging time etc…we have two guys working in tandem and the best trucks in the industry allowing us to efficiently take care of 20-35 homes across three counties per day. Over all, I want you to know we take every review we receive as a learning experience and an opportunity to improve our quality of service. You notated that the reason you chose us was due to our reputation and the reason we have a good reputation is because we always take care of our customers and learn from our mistakes. I hope you consider re-evaluating us and use us in the future. Sincerely, Bruce McCullers Owner/ Operator"

They did a great job. I have a newer septic system that has a filter. It was clogged. They pumped the tank and cleaned the filter. My system is working fine now. They were very professional and courteous. When they dug out the grass to access the tank they made a perfect circle and carefully removed the sod. When they replaced it, you could hardly see where the grass had been removed! The lawn looked just like before the work was done - no mess!
I was given tips on how to maintain the system. I also purchased a $50 treatment to prevent problems. This was optional. I definitely will use Reliable again.

Paid deposit on Jan. 14th My yard was dug up in a pouring down rain a few weels later.  It was several days before the work was done and my sprinkler system was damaged  It took several more phone calls and a visit by the owner to get the sprinkler system reconnected the right way since they connected one of the heads to the wrong zone and when they came to fix it the right way the repairmen didn't even have plumbers glue to seal the connections, my husband ended up giving them some so they could finish that mess,  I feel quite sure if we weren't here that connection would not have been glued.  Also, we had one of their representatives take care of ordering and installing new sod.  That was just done Feb 24th after many more phone calls he subcontracted it out to a sod company that dropped off 5 pallets of sod on our street with no communication from them.  The Reliable representative wasn't here to supervise the installation of the sod and the yard and sod look horrible.  On Feb. 25 after another phone call to the office the rep. from Reliable came to the house and told us he would make our yard right, which hasn't happened.  So far they have billed my charge account without my permission for the balance and I am not happy and exploring other options to get my yard looking half way decent.  The 3500.00 was for the drain field, plus 875.00 for the sod
Response from Reliable Septic & Services
"[member name removed], As you know there was a lot of issues that have since then been resolved to your satisfaction and our deepest regrets that anything less then the best service was given. The owner made it very clear to all parties involved of the errors that were made during the progress of your job and corrective action has been taken. Our service is normally top notch and we strive to take care of every customer with the highest integrity and highest standards in septic repair in the Indian River County, so it is with deep sincerity that you had a below average experience with us and we hope in the future you can count on us to deliver a much better one. Thank you for your business. Reliable Septic"

We had contacted another company, Not Reliable Septic and Services, to have our septic tanks pumped. After excuses ranging from they overbooked, to emergency calls, to truck broke down and waiting 5 days for the other company to pump our tanks we fianlly decided to call someone else. We looked on Angies List and chose RELIABLE SEPTIC AND SERVICES. They arrived within 1 hour and 30 minutes. They went to work immediately and were done in approximately an hour. GREAT fast, friendly and "Reliable" service.  SOmething that is not possible from the companies located locally in brevard county.

On Christmas day (2013), my wife and I noticed our downstairs toilets were overflowing after flushing and there was food waste coming through the tub drains in both bathrooms.  I called a local plumbing/septic company to come out and assess the situation.  The following day (12/26), a represenative arrived at my house and proceeded to dig up the access point to my septic tank system.  After breaching the opening to the septic tank, the represenative immediately said I needed a new drain field and provided me with an estimate which exceeded 5,000.00 (drain field / sod replacement).  I told the representative that I wanted to get a second opinion.
I talked to some of my neighbors and they all recommended Reliable Septic.  I called Reliable that same day and the following day (12/27) Bruce and two of his employees showed up at my house.  I repeated the facts of the situation and Bruce went right to work.  He asked if my distribution box was dug up by the other company for troubleshooting.  I told Bruce that the other company only looked inside the access point to my septic tank.  One of Bruce's employees dug up the distribution box and it was clear what the problem was.  The pipes running from the distribution box to the drain field had separated and the distribution box had collapsed.  The employees dug up some of the drain field and the gravel and soil appeared to be unused and like it was put in yesterday.  (My home was built in 1989 and I moved in on 5/23/12).
Bruce obtained a permit from our county and installed a new distribution box. In addition, he blasted/jetted my drainfield pipes as a precaution.  He installed manhole rings and risers on the tank access point and at the distribution box.  The work was completed on 1/7/14.  He kept me advised throughout the entire process and his crew left my front yard as they found it. 
I can't say enough good things about Bruce and his crew.  They were prompt, professional and above all, honest.

They did a very good job for us.  They were on Angie's List.  I have no suggestions at all.  Their people were fine.  They were articulate and explained everything which was the biggest thing I found important.  I really have nothing to compare their price with.

They were great. They were prompt and friendly. They did exactly what we wanted them to do for the price they said it would. It all went very smoothly. We had a coupon from Angie’s List and we paid $165 and it was normally $175 for the service.
