"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

The smallest standard septic system uses a 500-gallon tank, which costs between $875 and $1,150 installed. This size works well for single-occupant dwellings with minimal wastewater production. However, many local regulations specify minimum tank sizes, so check with your building department before committing to this compact option. Some jurisdictions require at least 750 gallons regardless of home size to ensure adequate waste processing capacity.

The installation timeline varies based on site conditions, permit processing, and contractor schedules. The process includes obtaining permits, conducting soil tests, excavation, tank placement, leach field construction, and final connections. Weather conditions, soil challenges, and inspection scheduling can all affect the overall timeline. It's wise to begin planning well in advance of when you need the system operational.

The most economical approach is to install a conventional anaerobic system with a plastic tank. To minimize costs while maintaining legality, obtain multiple quotes from licensed installers, consider scheduling during their slower seasons, and handle basic site preparation yourself. Never skip permits or required testing to save money—illegal installations can result in significant fines and mandatory removal, ultimately costing far more than doing it right initially.

Regular pumping helps prevent system failures and extends operational life. Most small systems require pumping every three to five years, though frequency depends on household size and usage patterns. Pumping services cost between $290 and $530, making this maintenance expense relatively minor compared to potential repair costs ranging from $500 to $2,600 for neglected systems. Establishing a regular maintenance schedule based on your installer's recommendations helps avoid costly emergency services.
