"Prompt and professional, answered our questions and gave good recommendations for future maintenance. We initially scheduled a septic cleaning using Angie's List coupon, but added the additional cleaning of station since needed. It was not pushed on us! We chose to get everything brought up-to-date at this time. We'll certainly call them in the future for any needs!

"I had an outstanding experience with Apollo Septic, LLC and can’t recommend them highly enough. From the start, Apollo was honest, knowledgeable, and straightforward about what needed to be done—no upselling or unnecessary work, just clear explanations and real expertise. What really stood out was his reliability. He showed up exactly when he said he would, which was greatly appreciated when dealing with something as stressful as septic issues. His pricing was very reasonable, especially considering the quality of work and attention to detail. Rather than destroy a field of daffodils, he moved them to the side so I could replant. He truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was done right, taking the time to answer my questions and ensure the system was working properly before he left. It’s not often you find someone who combines skill, integrity, and great customer service like this. If you need septic work done, just call Apollo Septic and be done with it. Simple."

"I had a mess! Right before Christmas my guest bathroom was a disaster there was a leak that was causing mold and damage to my bathroom ceiling. Tiffany stepped right in and made miracles happen! Her people came in found the source of the leak in my shower repaired it professionally in a timely manner and for a more than reasonable cost considering the damage. My bathroom looked great when family and friends came over for the holidays. Thank you for your hard work! I can not wait to refer you to friends and family!

"Rather than fix the issue the first 2 calls, more refrigerant was pumped into the system. This cost me $75 for each call plus the cost of the refrigerant. The 3rd time, they fixed a valve and refilled the refrigerant and I am monitoring to see if this really fixed the problem. So I am out $225 for service calls fro the same problem and the cost of the refrigerant. I think they take this approach intentionally."

FAQs for septic system repair projects in Dunn, NC

You should have your septic tank inspected at least once every one to three years. Regular inspections help catch minor issues before they become major problems, ensuring your system operates efficiently and extends its lifespan. You can also have your pro take care of routine septic system maintenance tasks at the same time as your inspection.

A septic tank must be inspected before buying a home to ensure the system is sound and compliant with local regulations. A comprehensive inspection evaluates all critical components and detects hidden faults that could lead to expensive repairs. This detailed review protects your investment by verifying the system’s integrity and reliability.

A septic tank's leach field fails when it encounters system overload and deteriorating conditions. Excess water usage beyond the field’s capacity and environmental stress lead to hydraulic failure. Aging infrastructure and insufficient maintenance further contribute to failure. Distributing water use evenly and scheduling regular maintenance, including enzyme treatments when necessary, preserve the leach field’s integrity.

A septic system lasts between 20 and 30 years. Steel tanks function for 15 to 20 years, concrete tanks operate for 20 to 40 years, and fiberglass or plastic tanks remain durable for 30 to 40 years. Consistent maintenance, including regular pumping and inspections, extends these lifespans by preventing buildup and structural damage, ensuring reliable long-term performance.

A failing septic system presents clear signs such as slow-draining fixtures, foul odors at or around the leach field, and overly green patches of grass. Additional indicators include persistent toilet flushing problems, standing water near the system, and noticeable gurgling noises from pipes. These symptoms reveal blockages, structural damage, or leaks. Immediate professional evaluation is essential to address these issues and prevent extensive repair costs.
