Everything went great. Joe came exactly the time he said he was going to and he worked hard for a few hours in my yard in the heat and got the job done. Joe left the place neat as possible. Highly recommend. Very professional very polite very friendly. He told me everything that he thought should be done prior to doing anything which I appreciated. He didn't just go ahead and do it and then bill me.He got my approval first. Would definitely hire again and highly recommend his service.

The Honest Cesspool Company was fantastic from start to finish. Joe answered my call within minutes, showed up right on time, and his team worked quickly while keeping everything clean and professional. He took the time to explain the process and made sure the job was done right — no surprises, no upselling, just honest, quality work. It’s nice to find a company that truly lives up to its name. I’ll definitely use them again and recommend him to anyone who wants reliable service they can trust.

Joe was very prompt with a call back , was able to come right out and aerate the tanks and chemically treat the two cesspools , with the tanks properly aerated and treated the pools both went right down to the bottom and are functional once again. Thank you Joe .

Joe was excellent! I have had other Cesspool companies service my Cesspool over the years. The last time I had my cesspool serviced by was a supposed very reputable company, I was told my Cesspool was an original block pool and that it would more than likely need to be replaced very soon. I was charged over $600 for it to be pumped and less than a year later was left with the same problem. Joe did some investigation and verified that I in fact have a septic tank with an overflow. Joe further explained if they’re only pumping the septic tank, it does no good, the overflow needs to be pumped, which is where the majority of the solid waste goes. He located the overflow put a cap so we know where it is going forward. All is good. What could’ve been close to a $10,000 job round up being 1/10 of that cost. Excellent experience, Joe’s company lives up to its name. Would highly recommend!

I recently hired Honest Cesspool Company for cesspool service and was thoroughly impressed. From the initial consultation, the owner, Joe, demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism. He walked me through a few different options for the project, making sure to explain each one clearly so that I felt completely comfortable and confident moving forward. His patience and deep knowledge of the work were evident. He answered all of my questions and was incredibly informative, never making me feel rushed. Beyond the excellent communication, the team's work was meticulous. They showed great attention to detail and, most importantly, left the work area cleaner than they found it. This level of cleanliness and respect for my property was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Honest Cesspool to anyone in need of their services. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to a clean and tidy job site are top-notch.

I cannot say enough good things about Honest Cesspool Company. From the very first call, their professionalism and kindness made me feel completely at ease. They took the time to listen to my situation, explain my options clearly, and guide me every step of the way. What impressed me most was how they went above and beyond to make sure I received exactly the service I needed — not trying to oversell or push unnecessary work, but truly focusing on what was best for me. Their prices were fair and affordable, which is rare these days, and their team treated my home and property with the utmost respect and care. It wasn’t just a service; it was a genuine experience of comfort and trust. Honest Cesspool Company lived up to their name in every way possible, and I am deeply grateful for the peace of mind they gave me. I highly recommend them to anyone in need — you won’t just be getting a service, you’ll be treated like family.

I called for a non-emergrncy service of our system. They communicated before the appointment and the day of, showed up promptly on time, quickly located my cess pool and got to work. Through all steps of the service they informed me of what they found, and what the next steps were. When complete they fixed the hole in the lawn very nicely and cleaned up everything after themselves. Great service, communicative, and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend.
