I am only guessing because they haven't returned any calls/texts on my inquiries to schedule the installation. Consequently, our permit has expired and we have FINALLY MOVED ON FROM AMERICAN SEPTIC. While we were waiting for things to get done on their end, they never responded to text message inquiries, or phone messages requesting updates.

When an hour after that time window passed, we called the company, they informed us they were not able to be out that day due to light rain. We had to be the ones to initiate the conservations to find out where this service was. Which means the person who was responsible for being at the residence to be there for the workers, lost a days pay and they did not seem to care at all. Then a second chance was given, when the company provided us with a time and date to be at the residence so another day of work was taken off, again with no pay from their original mistake. Once again, the time block they gave us passes, no show yet again. We then again had to initiate the call to find out what the delay was. They informed me that they made some sort of error that we were not on the schedule, and there is nothing they could do about it. I will NEVER recommend this service again, to anyone at all, unless you have no life and can sit around for whenever they decide to show.

This is after another company was out repairing a broken pipe. Well Rollin showed up within 30 minutes to my amazement. I did not expect him to be there so quick. I asked if they could return the next day, and they did right on time. Rollin and his Son GARY are very nice and pumped out our tank very quickly. No mess and very clean hoses used to pump. They had plenty of hose to reach my backyard from my driveway. Rollin is a great guy to talk to and is very knowledgeable and now know why he is HIGHLY recommended. Also he has been in the service for some time, so he knows how important it is to get the job done right the first time and very professional. As a family owned business, the price was below what you would expect. Also lower than others. If you want it done right and FAST these are your guys, and being family owned, they really care about the job they do. FAST FAST and Fast.

And the reviews also helped me decide to try their service. (Although I did wonder if they could even be real.) I'll update after the work is completed. I'm looking forward to meeting Travis because of all the high praises in the reviews. June 24, 2024 UPDATE: WOW! Travis was everything everyone else has praised him for & so much more! He showed up on time within the quoted time frame. He was polite & respectful. He stayed until everything was completed. What should have been a simple kitchen faucet swap-out of 15 minutes... ended up being closer to 3 hours. NOT HIS FAULT!! It was all my fault due to my inexperience & lack of knowledge on choosing the correct faucet. BUT... he took the time to make it work properly; with multiple trips to a hardware store. And the most amazing part... with all the extra time running back & forth & the extra hours & the extra gasoline burned... (other than the minor extra cost of the actual parts - getting the correct adapters; again MY FAULT)... he DID NOT even charge me a single penny above the original quote!! Now THAT is CUSTOMER SERVICE! I was so impressed, that I have already hired him to come back again on Friday for a bigger project. I can not recommend this Professional any more highly! A definite 10 stars!!! June 28, 2024 UPDATE #2: Had Travis do another job today. I still find it unbelievable in this day & age that there is anyone like him. He is honest, fast, efficient, skilled, polite, respectful, knowledgeable, a man of his word AND very reasonably priced! I'm 100%+ completely, totally, satisfied & now a life long customer of D & L! THANK YOU TRAVIS!

Tony's Drain and Sewer Tried to Drain Our Wallet Instead…read more.. My husband and I called Tony's Drain and Sewer because a contractor recommended them, and we had a stubborn main line blockage. They sent over a technician who attempted to rod the line but couldn't get the equipment in. He gave up and stuck a camera in there. My uncle is a general contractor/handyman with over 30 years of experience, and he's run into this exact issue before with our plumbing. Last time we had this issue, he told us it was likely root intrusion, and that it just needs yearly maintenance. Unfortunately, we didn't keep up with the maintenance, and he lives across the country, so we couldn't exactly fly him in for an emergency toilet rescue. Tony's charged us for a camera inspection and promised to send a quote. The next day? Boom! "$7,500 minimum"... And that didn't even include landscaping repairs. For that kind of money, I was expecting front row VIP tickets to see Dave Chapelle, since clearly, Tony's team thinks they're in the comedy business. Thankfully, we got a second opinion. Another plumbing company with over 20 years of experience came out, scoped it out, and spent about 3 hours clearing the line and doing a full inspection afterward. It was a root blockage and some baby wipes. They got to the root of the problem (yes, pun intended) for just $300. Moral of the story: Don't flush wipes. Also, don't flush your money down the drain with Tony's. Always get a second opinion. 0/10, would not recommend!
