Woke up one day to my septic alarm going off outside. Opened the lid and found the pump had stopped working. After calling a few different companies and struggling to find one that did the work I needed, Ericson was suggested. Rick came out the next day and figured out the problem. Not only did he figure it out, he walked me through how our system worked. It's my wife and I's first septic system so we weren't too familiar. Did fast work and fair priced considering the work completed. Will be going through this company in the future.

Service was outstanding and fair price. Septic was backed up into house. Eric and his crew showed up same day. Located septic, dug it up (no above ground access, it was waist deep), pumped it, jetted in line from house to tank (badly clogged), installed riser for above ground access, and placed all the dirt back.
