Contractor did not listen to my directions. Did not install the floor as I requested. Installed the same grout on the wall tile as the floor tile because he did not follow my instructions. Stated that he would come back to fix his mistake, but he didn't.

This will be our first experience with such a system as we have always lived within city limits that provided City Sewer Service. I found Jerry Thigpen Septic Tank Svc in an online search. I called and left a message on the answering machine at noon and received a call back within 35 minutes. Spoke to Mr and Mrs Thigpen, they both were very professional and pleasant to speak to. Very informative as to what steps we need to do before he can give us an estimate for a new system. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Thigpen we look forward to doing business with you.
