Great service. Hired Advanced Septic to pump my parents septic tank. They responded quickly, serviced and inspected the tank. They showed up on time, and neatly did their job. read more

Wow, Glenn sold out to Clay. Didn't see that one coming. Glenn was a local legend in in the San Luis Obispo county septic underground as well as the local real estate community for about 30 years. The company started out in Los Osos in the mid eighties, eventually moving to Atascadero. In a world full of pretenders, Glenn was the real deal. A peculiar man to some, he followed the beat of his own drummer. Truly the end of an era. Advanced Septic will be missed. read more

See all

FYI The owner has closed the business as of 10/02/15. The phone calls are being forwarded to another septic company located in Santa Barbara County. read more

Very professional! Our tank hasn't been emptied for over 13 years, plus we were unsure of the location (so it was a longer process than unusual & it was around Thanksgiving)! Shawn was awesome, our tank was 5 feet & a bit difficult to locate! We will definitely use Advance Septic again as well as highly recommend them to others! Thanks for all your efficient, hard work! read more

These folks do great work. Pumped our septic tank, helped us find the tank in a "non-traditional" location, and gave us great advice on how to fix some pipes that had settled and were at risk for blockage. We will definitely call them again for septic service. read more

Everyone was friendly , professional and very accommodating. I can't recommend this company enough. Thank you to all of you at Advanced Septic Ruby Roth Four Seasons Farm read more

Get a second opinion. These guys have a track record of recommending ridiculous repairs when they are used for real estate transaction inspections. read more

Called this company to have tank pumped. They had record of location from previous pumping but wouldn't tell me location ("company policy") so I could uncover lid but said the could charge me to come locate it. Really! Hope that business practice works for them. It doesn't work for me. read more

First off they showed up ab hour and a half late and it wasn't Advanced Septic it was Clays Septic, no one mentioned that when i made the appt weeks in advance. i arrived at the time the truck was out on the street, for some reason they seemed confused (Eugene), (he was looking at his phone) he was the guy in charge. The other guy i thought was in training because he didn't do much but be on his phone the whole time. After much time and speculation for Eugene as how to proceed my friend and i finished out digging the second tank that was already 90% dug out. Eugene went to move the truck in the driveway. Did i mention the other guy was looking at his phone... Needless to say after hearing about the last job they were on that had 10 boxes (tanks) he got started. I had to leave because they arrived late and my job only let me off for an hour and a half. I asked Eugene how much it was going to be and he said between "$700 $ $900". He asked me to leave a credit card number so he could bill me. Really, i can't imagine how that would have gone... As it was i got charged $925.00 for pump at $635.00, xtra person $55 (this must be for the guy on the phone) Environment $70.00 and tech $165 (this must also be for guy on phone). Did i mention on the invoice it stated "i left before flushing the toilet" which he never told me to do while i was there. I would like to get a refund adleast for paying the guy to be on the phone, but i know that would never happen.. if there was a zero rating, they woud get it. I forgot to say they left 6 oil spots on my driveway and put dirty on it. Really did they not think i would notice. kathleen f. read more

Thanks to Glenn and his crew for a great job on our septic... They were here when they said they would be... Left the job site nice and clean.. We really appreciate the nice work you did... read more

I was extremely pleased with the service I received from Advanced Septic. They responded quickly to my call and though their schedule was full for the next three days, they said they would try to come out sooner if their other jobs finished earlier. Andrew was able to come later that same day. He dug down to locate my tank lid and checked the tank to make sure things were okay. It was getting late in the day so we scheduled a return visit. When he came back, he and Robert put extensions on the tank lids for easy accessibility for future maintenance. The tank has been pumped and the filters cleaned all for a very reasonable price. Andrew and Robert were very professional and efficient as was Annie back in the office. Thanks for a great job! read more

We hired advance septic to pump our septic. They were friendly on the phone, Annie was very accommodating with the dates available. They called before arriving and the two young men that did the work, Andrew andRobert, were friendly and informative. They answered all my questions. They worked hard and finished in a timely manner. When my daughter returned home was surprised that you could not even tell where they had dug up. Would definitely hire them again. read more
