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!

This commentary is because of Yelp, not this company's fault at all. So 4 stars with only the…read morededuction for not doing the job. I'd scanned Yelp to find a plumber to replace my kitchen faucet. I contacted RDZ and after a nice call said yes, though of course I felt the price was too high, but where did I go to plumber's school? Then the phone calls started, some impersonating RDZ and some trying tp take the job. At that time I felt there was some scam going on, and eventually cancelled the job. Apparently I cancelled it with one of the usurpers and not RDZ. Thanks Yelp for sharing my number with so many other plumbers, I'd estimate at least 6. So poor RDZ was on their way, on a Saturday as requested and called to confirm, and I told them I'd cancelled the job. We were all upset but I'd found a local plumber who only works weekdays. I had an unusually available friend who drove from San Diego to open the house here in Julian, CA. I believe RDZ would have done a fine job were they not overwhelmed by Yelp-driven competition, to the point that just had to shut down the process. In fact before I post let's just raise them to that 5th star. Thanks for reading and I hope you remember this review of Yelp and their practices. And there's my mistake of not taking notes on who was calling, checking for problems. Acknowledged.

Two guys came from Paul's Plumbing to give me bid to install a Moen Flo leak detection device on my…read morewater supply pipe. Leak detection is a requirement by my insurance company Safeco because they want to leave California and they're coming up with all these obstacles to make me jump through in order for them not to renew me. They were already non-renewing me because I didn't have the Moen Flo installed. I would be providing the Moen Flo device which cost about $600 when I take it off another house where I'm not using it. Paws Plumbing noted that pressure regulator valve that I installed maybe 5 years ago was not working. So if I purchase the parts Paws Plumbing would install it for $800. The Moen Flo requires pipe modifications to be done at my house, because of the picture below, and extra parts. It is not a simple installation. I feel like the price is fair because another plumber, arrived at the same time as pause and he quoted $2,500 even if I provide the part and that is only for the installation of the Moen Flo alone not for the pressure regulator. The $2500 plumber waas the Owner of Core Plumbing in case you want to avoid paying more than you need to. The other plumbers didn't test the pressure regulator. Otherwise it could have made more money because it wasn't working right. And another plumber quoted $950 just for the labor alone to install the Moen Flo alone. So I'm giving Paws Plumbing five stars although I am not at the point to hire them for installation because I might get around it by changing my insurance. A solid 5 star plumber called Open Line, bid $350 to install the Moen Flo, if I provide the part, and later, I ALSO found that Moen has "bundle deal" with my insurance company (Safeco/Liberty Mutual) for $1000 including tax and the Moen Flo, which cost about $600, which means the installatio is aboaut $400. I learned, however, on my pipe configuration pictured below, modifications have to be made that would cost more.
