JR's EXCAVATING INC

After purchasing our home in 2010, we found out, a few weeks in, that we were the new owners of a failed septic system.  The previous owners had employed a different firm to do a septic system test to fulfill the requirements of the sale.   That company did an outside test that did not test the entire system, merely created a scenario where it passed the minimum tests.  New to septic systems, we were not present and we did not know what to expect or demand as part of that experience.  Long story with lots of research, we ended up calling JR's since, upon lots of research, we learned that JR's had been here before in 2008 to test the system (it failed then, too, but we didn't know that at the time of purchase, unfortunately).  Eventually, we somewhat successfully resolved our problems with the seller with a lawsuit.  That's outside of JR's realm, of course. 
What I still applaud, now four years later as I reflect and write this review, is JR's commitment to honesty, timeliness and clear explanation of septic systems and septic system testing.  If you are buying a home, require that JR's do the complete septic system test.  Be there and understand why your system passes or fails.  Allowing for any other company to take on this responsibility could result in a lot of headaches for you, along with a whole lot of extra costs (new septic system is between $10 and $15,000) when you take on your "new" home.  There probably are other honest companies out there,  but we learned the hard way that there is at least one company willing to take shortcuts that favor the seller.  Avoid that risk and just hire JR's.  

Excellent experience from scheduling the appointment, thru the service and repair call, to the receipt of a very thorough and profession inspection report.  Service techs were friendly, knowledgable, professional, polite, efficient and helpful.  Explained what they were doing and why.  Educated me to the workings of the systems, what to watch out for and how to add life to them.  Showed me, in detail, specific repairs that were required, provided options and pricing in advance.  All work was done promptly, at a high level of quality.  Will use JR's again in a heartbeat and will arrange for their horizontal boring services as well.  I give them the highest level of recommendation.
