They arrived a few minutes early and were careful about bringing their big truck onto our concrete driveway. Even though I said it was okay, they preferred to leave it on the pavement.
We are rookies to septic systems, so I had dozens of questions. The 2 guys were very friendly and answered every single one of them, with detail and in layman's terms. There were no surprises or guessing.
Suggestions were made on what we could do to streamline our septic system and keep it running optimally.
They left everything looking exactly as it had when they showed up. Zero mess.
Whole process took about a hour (even with all my questions).
I wrote a check for the exact amount I was quoted on the phone. No extra fees or anything like that.
We will definitely be calling them again!
I had the house inspected before I purchased the property and nothing was mentioned about the system other than it had been pumped in 2009.
Because I was unfamiliar with the care and maintenance of septic systems and all the horror stories I heard about them, I decided to have the system inspected by a professional whose business was septic systems.
This decision was smart on my part because the tank was full, needed cleaning, and the distribution box was in bad shape.
If I had not had Judges personnel out I would have had major problems with my septic systems distribution system in six months that would have cost many thousands of dollars more than the money I did spend.
In addition to putting my system in excellent shape I also received an education and the care and maintenance of septic systems
be out in a week. I called at the end of the week when I hadn't heard
anything, and they let us know it would now be pushed to a week and a
half. They called us the next week and said that the head of the Health
department had been out sick all week so they couldn't get a permit and
needed to push it back yet another week. I called the Health department
and found out the head had been at a conference for only two days and
would be back the next day, so they lied to us about that. The next week
it rained, so they canceled again because we had a large hill they
needed to go down to get to the tank site. The person who quoted said we
had a large hill, but it should not be a problem - this was the first
we realized it would indeed be a problem. The next week they showed up,
the owner decided that the hill was too large for them to go down (after
three weeks, he'd never bothered to come out and look, though we'd been
promised he would) and they canceled, saying they needed the tank
delivery company to say they didn't mind delivering down the hill. I
called all week, as they had stopped calling me, to see what was being
done. Finally the next week (after about 4 1/2 weeks total) they brought in some heavier equipment,
scooped a drive out behind our house and put the tank in. They covered
the drive over, but there are rocks everywhere and it is so uneven we
will probably have to hire someone in the spring to smooth it out to
even try to mow back there. They attempted to charge $2,500 more because of the heavier equipment and putting in a temporary road, and dropped it to $1500 when my husband complained. The stress of them
constantly canceling, then implying they may not even be able to do the
job at all, was pure misery for us. I believe that they did a good job, once they actually worked on the tank and put it in and hope we have no problems as we never want to have to call that number again! Our yard is a rutted mess, but it probably would be that way no matter who we hired.
Found out what the problem was and corrected it.
Checked over the rest of the system and made recommendations.
Additional work was needed that required some parts.
I approved the start of the work needed.
They finished the work later that day for the price I was quoted.
I would/will use them again.
