"I call the company to get the septic tank cleaned out. Septic works stated they couldn?t locate the tank but could find it for $225. I paid the $225 and 3 minutes later they found the tank. A $400 septic job changed to a $675 job because they would have had to dig a hole to clean the tank. So I told them that?s ok because I see where this was going. I just located another company and they found the tank and cleaning it for the price stated without telling me a an extra fee for locating a job that they are about to get paid for.

My company has focused mainly on servicing investment properties managed by large property management companies and we currently maintain around 3,000 rental properties not including all the private home owners we work for as well. Most of the homes we maintain were built before 1960, so when it comes to repairs, we have seen and repaired it all. The benefit of this is that repairs that some of our competitors would consider to be a full day's project, we are able to complete in hours not days. We have six services trucks on the road on a daily basis and we keep all our service trucks stocked with standard service parts at all times. My goal is to offer you the same quality of service you would get from one of the larger home service companies but at a price you can afford.

We no longer support Angies List (AL)! Why? We were recently called by AL telling us that we had some complaints that we needed to address. When I called AL back about these, I was informed that no there wasn't any complaint but I needed to advertise with AL. I have entered 2 different complaints via the AL web site with out response. Just like my customers I choose who to do business with and based on this I choose NOT to do business with Angies List. Randy Anderson

FAQs for septic system installation and replacement projects in Birmingham, AL

Most septic system replacements require several days to complete, not including permitting and preparation time. The process begins with site assessment and testing, followed by excavation, component installation, and final inspection. Weather conditions, property accessibility, and inspection schedules can all affect your project timeline. Your contractor can provide a more specific estimate based on your property's unique characteristics.

Standard homeowners' insurance policies don't cover septic system replacement due to age or normal deterioration. Coverage may apply if damage results from specific covered events, but routine maintenance and eventual replacement are generally considered homeowner responsibilities. Review your policy details or speak with your insurance agent to understand your specific coverage limitations.

Look for multiple indicators such as slow-draining fixtures, unusual gurgling sounds in plumbing, sewage odors inside or outside your home, or wet spots in your yard. Unusually lush grass over the drain field area, frequent backups, or recurring repair needs might signal system failure. Addressing these warning signs promptly can prevent property damage and health hazards.

DIY septic installation is not recommended and may violate local regulations. Professional installation ensures compliance with health codes, proper design for your specific site conditions, and appropriate safety measures. The specialized equipment, technical knowledge, and permitting requirements make this a job best left to licensed professionals who can guarantee the system's safety and effectiveness.

With proper maintenance, including regular pumping, a drain field lasts 20 years. Various factors influence system longevity, including household size, water usage patterns, and soil conditions. Regular professional inspections can help determine when replacement becomes necessary. If your system requires increasingly frequent repairs, replacement might be more economical than continuing to address individual problems.
