"Our septic system suddenly backed up into the house early one morning. A call to A-Affordable Septic Service was made based on Angie's list reviews and a one hour window was obtained for a service appointment that same morning. The office staff was upfront and clearly stated that a $110 hourly charge would apply to locate and excavate the septic system, to which I agreed. This was in line with what competing service companies were quoting. The tech (Marty) arrived 30 minutes into the estimated 1 hour service window. He was very professional and quickly assessed the situation. The septic tank access cover had not been excavated prior to his arrival so he located the tank and hand dug the hole. He was careful to remove the sod separately and neatly pile the dirt. Our soil is infamous for random rocks from fist sized to boulders. He was again careful to pile them separately so they would not be used in the back-fill and impede future excavations.
Unfortunately our tank orientation and an inferior, home made riser installed by the previous owner required Marty to spend several hours to gain full access to the septic tank. After nearly 7 hours of work that continued into the dark evening, Marty persevered until he had pumped and cleaned the tank, found and removed the blockage and then confirmed free flow from the septic clean-out access point near the house to the septic tank inlet. The work site was cleaned up plus made safe and secure in preparation for a second crew to come the next day and install a properly sized riser. Marty said he would not leave until our septic system was functioning properly and he delivered. The cost for the amount of work provided by Marty was extremely fair and I unreservedly recommend his services.
A two man crew arrived in a clearly marked company vehicle the following day as expected to install the new riser. Robbie patiently answered my many questions about the installation and possible options. The installation went as explained and was completed in a little over an hour. The crew groomed the site until I was completely satisfied with the appearance. They were definitely aiming to please. Again, A-Affordable provided excellent service.
The total cost for both services was very reasonable, especially when considering the amount of services provided and the quality of work.
