DO NOT HAVE YOUR WORK DONE BY ALPHA SEPTIC!!! I recently had to replace my septic system. The contractor on my Hurricane Irma damage used Alpha Septic. I caught the supervisor diverting the underground electric service to the wall out in front of my property and told him he couldn't "steal" electric from that permitted job as it cost me a small fortune. He said he was doing it anyway because he needed to finish his job that day, and that the contractor, Assist2Build would have to put in a new circuit. The circuit has never worked and is constantly tripping the breaker. The septic pump has an alarm that depends upon the electric circuit, and the pump has never worked anyway, which means my shower backs up after a short shower. How does this happen you wonder since the permitting process is so strict on a new septic system?
THE COUNTY CHECKS THE WORK PRIOR TO THE DRAINFIELD BEING COVERED, BUT DO NOT CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONS PROPERLY OR THAT THE PUMP WORKS.
Alpha Septic does not stand behind their shoddy work and can't be trusted on your property (if they are going to divert electric service from another source).
Also, they chopped down branches from a gorgeous arching oak and a worker had stolen the staghorn fern off the branch, but returned it when I began furiously digging in the pile of dirt under where the branch used to be. The arching oak tree wasn't in their work area and didn't need to be bothered at all. They could have put their temporary piles of dirt just about anywhere else, but they thought nothing of destroying my landscaping. Piles of gravel were left along the area in the grass that were dug up from the old system. The site was left lumpy and full of roots and litter. It took me several months to get it cleaned up. This was a HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. How could this possibly happen? It was the contractor paying the tab, and they knew it, because I would have withheld payment until the damage that could have been mitigated was ... but nothing will bring back my beautiful tree. Also, there was a huge, wide, and deep pit left right in front of my shed such that I can't get my lawnmower into the shed or use my shed since the pit is too difficult for this disabled senior to navigate. I'll take a photo and add it...
