They initially had me later in the schedule, but the office team was super responsive and accommodating--they texted back quickly, explained they'd try to bump me up, and kept me updated. In the end, they squeezed me in around 10am, which was perfect! The crew showed up right on time, were professional, friendly, and got the job done efficiently and cleanly. No mess, quick pump and inspection, and they left everything spotless in my backyard (even with all the plants and stuff around the access point). Communication was top-notch from start to finish--morning check-in texts, heads-up when they were en route, and a call number if needed. I've dealt with septic services before, but this was one of the best experiences. Honest, reliable, and they really go the extra mile to make it work for the customer. Highly recommend Modern Septic Service in El Cajon--definitely 5 stars!

Was recommended to call John at North County Backhoe. Absolutely thrilled that I did. He came out right away and gave me a very reasonable quote. John told me not worry that he would get it fixed. John and his family started work the very next day and finished at 1:30pm the 2nd day. Now my system is flowing like new. I highly recommend John and his family. When he finished, everything was buried and leveled off and cleaned. Quality work at great value and took the stress off my back. Thank you John. Steve

Our management company said 'A' company was coming out but never said what company. So, as we were nearing 2 weeks since being told, I began to get anxious. With no disrespect to other companies, we didn't want anyone else to service our septic. Rick & Corey have been taking care of our septic (property) with such perfection in our book. But on Christmas Eve mind you, in the pouring rain here pulls up Rick. Talk about dancing in the rain. We were so happy to see Rick (& sad at the same time because it was Christmas Eve & raining). Anyway, Rick was in & out with both ours & our neighbors. I keep saying it, these men do a job I can't imagine anyone doing since it is a 'sh*tty* job & through all weather & holidays. They are AMAZING & deserve top dollar. You can't go wrong with hiring Atlantis Septic for your plumbing services; they are Top Notch. Thank You again Rick for coming out in the rain & on Christmas Eve, you're like family. Hope your Christmas was happy & you were dry.

Cant say enough about these guys.

Additionally, they were willing to defer payment until escrow closed, which was going to be more than 60 days out. So nice to do business with an outfit that is willing to be flexible and understanding and willing to work with us. Bob's rocks!
