Jeff Blount and his crew are a great experience. They put a camera down our drain and found a belly in the pipe under the floor. They then mapped out the exact location. Not only did they tell us the location but also the degree of the slope in the belly. These guy's know what they're doing and how to repair it with a degree of professionalism unseen other places. Don't hesitate, call and your problems are on the mend.

They were excellent and they did a very good job with our water heater. We had our water heater blew out and they repaired it quickly.

The technician, Steve, was very knowledgeable and answered the many questions I had about my tank. That was helpful because I had just purchased the property and didn’t know what condition the septic tank was in.

Great job!!!! Jeff knew exactly where to cut the patio so the cutout wasn't any larger than necessary to access the lid on the septic tank. Very clean work. Friendly people

I don't have a choice unfortunately because they're our provider right now. I will change it to somebody else. I never know when they come out. They come every four months supposedly. If I have any problems, I don't call them, I call somebody else. They need to be more front, leave messages that they've been here so I know they've been here.

We're VERY pleased with Blount's Speedy Rooter. Blount did the work a competitor septic company (Y) and their recommended plumber (X) didn't do to our satisfaction.
Prior to purchasing our home one year ago, we called Y to have them pump and inspect the septic. We lived out of town, so weren't there to observe.  So, one month later, we called them back over to show us where the lid was located, as the soil in the backyard hadn't been disturbed.  We just wanted to know where to find our septic system as the plat wasn't specific. Our house is on a unique property, not a cookie-cutter lot. Y couldn't find it again. 
Fast forward one year. Toilets were overflowing in the house, so we needed help. Y told us to call their friend at X Plumbing. X sent cameras down the pipes from the roof and told us we had a broken terra cotta pipe from the house to the septic and it needed to be replaced.  He also found the septic lid and said it had been "years, if ever" since it had been dug up. (He later denied ever saying that, but I took a video of his conversation with me while he dug.) Upon opening the lid, he discovered septic didn't have a Sanitary-Tee. At this point, we weren't impressed with Y, so we decided to call Blount and start all over.
Blount's septic team and plumber (a Blount employee) were faster, better communicators and PROVED they did what they also showed needed to be done, using a camera and video. They installed a "Sanitary-Tee" that should have been installed years ago, but Y never mentioned it when they supposedly drained and inspected the tank a year ago. (Y said on their receipt that the septic was "in working order.") Blount also showed us we didn't need a "broken, terra-cotta pipe" replaced from the house to the septic as X recommended; that pipe is a high-quality PVC and is in perfect condition.
Blount will definitely have our business in the future.

We called and were able to schedule an appointment the next morning. We did not have an emergency, but knew we needed to get the tanks pumped out. The service person arrived a little before the appointment time early the next morning, which was great.
He went to work and had the job completed in an hour and 15 minutes. He was careful not to spill any of the liquids in the yard.  He was very professional.
In the afternoon their business office called to follow up on the quality of our service, and to see if everything met our satisfaction.
We will use this company again if the need arises.  We were very satisfied.

We had a long time of getting the work started. Reason: INSURANCE company repeatedly processed and delayed work.. Once the Insurance company displayed their intelligence of getting payment and paperwork cleared. Blounts was on the job and worked to resolve the problem of repair of my Entire Sewer Line.

Jimmy and Nick Blount were courteous, efficient and displayed excellent work.

Fantastic response time; within 5 minutes from calling the main line a technician called to set up the appointment-a relief for a Saturday emergency such as mine (clogged toilet that no amount of plunging could unclog). The technician arrived within an hour of the confirmation call, looked over the problem and provided a written estimate of $174.88. I showed him a $20 coupon that I had printed from Angie's List and he politely replied that he would be happy to apply it to today's visit.  The technician used plastic shoes and rubber gloves during the work and carefully exited the premises without letting his equipment drip on the floors. A written work order was provided and I settled the amount due with a credit card payment.

Do not call them if you need more than one thing looked at - unless you feel that $500 for less than an hour is a good deal. 
I feel bad not writing a good review about this company- because if they offered fair/honest pricing I would have given them an A+...but they don't - and honestly I feel like we were taken advantage of.  They do "fixed pricing" meaning - it doesn't matter if it is a 2 minute fix or something that takes 2 hours to fix- you get charged the same price. The service man that came was on time, very professional, did an excellent job fixing the repairs, wore booties in the house, and was very clean and polite. He was great- I think it's just the company pricing that's wack.  We did get an estimate before he completed the work- but I thought the estimate was so high because there were several things I asked him to look at maybe he was going to be at the house the majority of the day or maybe he needed expensive parts or something. Nope, took him only a few minutes to fix the things we asked him to look at.  He was at the house for a total of 40 minutes and we were charged $539. What a joke!!! I should have just bought 3 new toilets!!! Honestly I should have just called another company or a handy man because everything (besides snaking the drain) could have been fixed by a handy man but I just didn't want to mess around with finding someone else and this place had good reviews on here. If you need one plumbing need done- maybe consider calling them - they will do a great job. BUT if you're looking to have a few things looked at- I would call a company that offers fair pricing.

Response from Blount's Speedy Rooter
"Hello, Let me first apologize for your less than satisfactory service recently. It is our family goal that you are completely satisfied. From reading your review, I see that you feel like you’ve paid for something twice and that we have not kept you informed. Your satisfaction with our family business is important to us and I will be taking the time to review your service history to make sure I understand. I want to assure you that if we find that you have indeed double paid, we will credit your account, and I will be looking into why you haven’t been kept informed in order to develop a standard procedure to make sure we are keeping everyone in the loop. I will be getting back in touch with you soon. Thank you for your time, Nick Blount, General Manager & Third Generation"
