Get matched with top drain clog or blockage clearers in Banks, OR

"Technician quickly found the problem and cleared the clogged drain. Be prepared that the cheapest work will cost over $500. They were the first to respond to my problem."

"

First I want to say that the prior owner of this home did not put in adequate drain field for the size of this home or properly account for how many people would be living in this home.  This is no fault of speedy septic & I do not hold them responsible for prior home owner errors.

 

That being said Speedy Septic did diagnose problem and installed a new drain field that was supposed to accommodate the size of the home and the people living in it.  It didn't work.

 

Speedy suggested we decommission the current sand filter & replace it with a commercial grade filter.  Again this did not work.

 

Our home has the capacity of over 3000 gallons of septic waste with tanks installed by speedy.  Currently these tanks have been converted with the city of Portland's approval and with necessary and required permits to a holding pond situation.  We currently have an approved plan by the city to connect out home with the sewer.  Design took eight months to complete and an additional 2-3 months while speedy sent or took bids for work to be completed.  Speedy claimed that delay was the fault of the city, claiming that design had to be submitted and resubmitted multiple times.  Speedy provided no documentation of delay and very little communication with us.   Whenever WE contacted speedy we were told "it's almost done" or city this or city that.  Final estimate is upwards of $68000. We have not determined what course of action we are going to take.

 

As my wife and I run an adult care foster home from this location our options are somewhat limited. Issue will ultimately be resolved. What form resolution will take remains to be seen.

I must say I have looked on other websites and was very surprised at the rating speedy was given.

 

This issue has been one of incredible frustration & I posted this review in a period of venting.

While venting I did not fully take into account the cities role in this problem. Currently policy is for homeowners to exhaust all other options before they will consider homeowners to connect with city sewer.  This policy is the policy of the city not speedy septic.

 

I have been in contact with Speedy & I am very impressed with their willingness to resole this issue after reading my posting and review.  In addition I am more than happy to adjust my rating & review and look forward to working with Speedy to completely resolve this issue.

"Clean job! Very professional. I would highly recommend. Very pleasant to transaction business with. Thank you Legacy Plumbing and Excavation."

"Called on a Friday afternoon with sewer backup and Owen & co-worker arrived within a couple of hours and unclogged the line. They were very professional and friendly. I was pleased with their work but not with the news that tree roots were the cause and would require an expensive repair (excavation/partial sewer line replacement). Merry Christmas!"

"Grumpy's Drains was the only company who could get us on their schedule within a week. A half hour before our appointment time, Keith called to let me know he was on his way and then showed up exactly on time. My husband had tried to snake the drains multiple times with no success. Keith was able to clean the clog out of the tub in less than 10 minutes (water balloon and hair clog). He then went to work on the pedestal sink. That was a much more difficult clog while working in a tight space. Keith was cheerful, funny and kind the entire time. The first clog cost a flat $178 and the additional drain was $88. It was money well spent and I would absolutely call on this company again in the future."

"All work was done well and efficiently. Unprompted, Kent noted a kitchen sink drain deficiency during the proposal phase that explained drain problems we had experienced. Proposal pricing was in line with the lowest submittals. Simpson was pleasant to deal with, punctual, and addressed my proposal questions promptly. Simpson Plumbing was a very good choice for my plumbing projects."

"First visit: Ryan came to see what work would be needed. Gave recommendation for water heater as well as 'booster' to provide more hot water. Did not go into crawl space under house to investigate bathtub plumbing needs. Explained steps we needed to take to prepare bathroom and floor for installation. (Total visit: almost an hour.) Second visit: Ryan performed jobs 2 and 3 easily and efficiently. Replaced earthquake straps on water heater; they had not been installed properly 10 years ago. Finally entered crawl space and realized he would need a second person to do plumbing bathtub hookup from below and above floor at same time. Arranged for a 3rd visit with an apprentice a week later. Third visit: Ryan and helper cut waste line and installed branch line to new tub location, plus install new water supply lines for tub as well as hook up tub to new branch line. Worked efficiently and thoroughly. [NOT MP Plumbing's fault: hose bib had hidden damage which began leaking a few days later; Seth called and explained function and design of hose bib, but when he was informed that it was still dripping at end of explanation, he immediately said something was wrong and he'd be by in 20 minutes. Arrived quickly (forth visit), removed part and discovered mis-manufactured part. Replaced immediately, and made note that it was too soon to have been our fault so there would be no charge for the part or the visit.] Ryan, Seth and apprentice were all very friendly; they took the time to make sure we understood what they would be doing (and in some instances why). They worked well and efficiently and were very careful and considerate of our space. Easy to talk to and we never felt they were talking down to us; when they used in-house 'lingo', they made sure we knew what was meant. Overall a very pleasant experience. While we had been told on the phone when we made the initial appointment that the first visit was a chargeable service call, Ryan discounted that first visit as he had not discovered the need for a second person and thus he had to come for the third visit with the apprentice. We felt that we were treated exceedingly fairly in those circumstances. Total cost includes water heater, booster and plumbing fittings."
