Matt was very professional and respectful. I could hardly tell he was here since he replaced the grass after digging it up to pump out the septic tank. I would highly recommend his services.

The technician arrived at the early end of the timeframe I was given. It was a short window, 2 hrs, which I appreciated, can schedule my day better. The gentleman was outgoing and friendly, worked quickly, explained what he was doing. I gave N/A for the price as I don't have a basis for comparison. The company performed this service last did so 3 years ago, so I can't compare to that price. I gave up on them after contacting the owner 3 times.

Larry and Matt were great. I was under a time-crunch, and they were able to move me up in their schedule by two weeks. And, THEY ARE REPUTABLE. I obtained estimates from septic companies in Ballston Lake and Queensbury as well. One tried to convince me that I needed a pumping station (for another $3,500), and the other one tried to convince me that a full engineering plan was necessary (for an additional $1,100). I highly recommend that anyone needing septic work, contact them.

I called them 3 times over a 3 week period. never returned my phone call. have used them before in the past. In fact, in 2012 they replaced my leach field for my septic system. I guess they can't be bothered returning phone calls anymore. The price I am listing below is for the the last time they were here to pump the tank in 2012. I can tell you that I do not recommend them at all.

After many years of frustrating septic problems and being told by two septic companies that I needed an entire new system from the house to the leach field I decided to consult with a plumber. It was difficult to believe that an entire new system was needed as this had been done in 2009 and the leach field redone again in 2010. After making a few repairs the plumber indicated that the septic tank was full and would need to be pumped out. For a household of one this would be the fourth time in six months that a pump out was necessary. He recommended Rotterdam Septic Systems Inc. and they arrived within an hour or so. After emptying the tank they observed, as other septic companies have in the past, that water was rapidly entering the tank from the outgoing drain. Rather than just deciding that the leach field was faulty these young men took a few minutes, determined that the leach field was dry and continued investigating. As it turned they discovered a second tank with an effluent pump and the plug to this pump had inadvertently become dislodged in the garage. Problem solved in a matter of minutes. One would think that the septic company that installed this tank and pump would have had some record of this and not recommended a whole new septic system.
