They listened to our preferences and offered valuable insights, delivering a strong and beautiful fence that exceeded our expectations. Their craftsmanship, problem solving abilities, and genuine dedication to customer service made them a joy to work with. I am truly delighted with the final result.

"Faucet installation"

"I would give 5 stars for their pump out service (Mike was awesome, very professional and expedient in servicing our septic cleanout—overall GREAT!); 1 star for the poor customer service by Sharon. Details: A&M Septic Service has been servicing our home for over 25 years. In fact, they installed the current floats and pump back in 2011. Our negative rating/comment is focused more on when we had issues with our recent pump chamber. Mike recommended I contact their electrician who knows septic systems and could raise our electrical box to code (it was partially buried). When I coordinated with the electrician, he said I should replace the floats since it was too short on slack cord to raise and you can’t splice inside the chamber--I was fine with that. As for the pump, there was enough slack wire (approx. 5 feet confirmed by another electrician) to raise the line inside of the chamber 6 inches to re-splice outside of the chamber into a new junction box. Bottom line: we were not going to splice anything INSIDE of the chamber. The electrician recommended I call Sharon at A&M to setup the float install and tell her about the troubleshooting of the pump working in HAND mode only because of the possible float issue. Here’s where it gets interesting. I called Sharon that Friday (I said it was not in an emergency but “urgent” situation) and informed her that I was having issues with my floats, only able to pump out the chamber in manual mode, and confirmed with her electrician sub-contractor after troubleshooting. Before I could explain my issues and desire to raise the junction box and replace 3 floats, she began telling me what my septic problems were BEFORE hearing the full story or steps we took with her electrician. Before I could really speak, she ended the call to contact the electrician who I had been talking with to get the real info instead of giving me, the customer, a chance to explain what we had done. After 30 minutes, she calls me back telling me the solution vs. understanding root cause: "you need 3 new floats, a new pump which will cost $2500 plus whatever work the electrician needs to do to raise my junction box." I tried to tell her that there was enough slack on the pump to work with and that it was working fine. Instead, I got an earful on county codes and regulations on no splices in a box, and A&M won’t touch my system unless we change out the pump with the floats. Very upsetting and it felt like a “one-way transmission” from her—too directive. I told her I would call her back at 4PM with my decision since I had a 1-hr work call. She said to call or text her after and they could start work as early as the next Wednesday (3 business days later). So, I called her line at 4PM and ended up leaving a VM stating we would have them do the floats and pump but asked for an onsite assessment. I then texted her as per her instructions our "ok" to schedule for Wednesday and followed up with a call and left another message on Saturday (they were closed but checking VMs). Thinking surely she will call me on Monday AM, I waited. Nothing. Tuesday—Nothing. By Wednesday, the day they were supposed to start work, I got a call by the electrician at 12:30PM asking if I was going forward with the work. Sadly, he was caught in the middle and as of this feedback, A&M has NOT returned any of my calls or texts. The most irritating of all? Sharon knew we were in a pickle and needed their help...they were the first company we called because we were loyal customers to them who have been servicing us for years. Regardless of her perhaps having a bad day, it's also about voice of the customer. Sadly, we went with another company who did an OUTSTANDING job and elected to change out the floats and a pump for peace of mind. Again, pump out service, no issue—Mike and team are awesome. Scheduling and working with the front office?--Sharon was not easy to work with and no follow-up to a loyal customer/home for more than 20+years….because of this experience, A&M has lost our business."

"Called ahead, showed up on time, and performed service as requested."

"Great, I had additional questions about a faucet repair and Chris advised me to call the manufacture to get the parts under warranty. I appreciated his honesty and that he didn't try to up sell me. The toilet repair was quick and no mess left behind. I will definitely call again for any plumbing needs. On a side note, the office personnel were helpful, friendly and accommodating when I called to schedule my appointment."
