"I went through Universal Septic to completely replace my septic field. Let me start with, Eric is very good at telling you everything you want to hear. He gave me an over the phone estimate that was much lower than other companies. When he ran the final estimate, the price went up more than double his over-the-phone estimate. His price was still a little better price amongst other companies I had called. He was very pleasant when I met him and I had no doubts or worries that he would go above and beyond to keep his clients happy. They reconstructed the septic field back in February 2022. On the first day, I was home and I heard a big crash and felt my house shake. His men hit my chimney with one of their trucks and took a good size chunk out of one of the bricks. The job itself took about a week to complete. The men said they would be back out in March or early April for the regrade. Eric also said he would have someone out to repair my chimney. His guys were NOT back in March or april for the regrade. Instead, I had to hound company with emails and phone calls to get them to come out and finish the job they started. Again, they were good at telling me what I wanted to hear. I was told countless times that I was next on the list or they would be out the following week but they did not fix my backyard until mid JUNE. At this point my backyard was a mess! The land was filled with weeds, ruts from the trucks and small sink holes from all the rain we were getting. It was very dangerous to walk on and yet I had to deal with it for months. After the regrade, I had a fence guy come out to help fix the section of fence they took down to get their equipment through. All the hardware that was holding the chain link fence in place was missing and the fence was damaged beyond repair. I had to replace the section completely. Eric warned me they would have to take it down to get their equipment through. He said there would be minimal damage but did not warn me I would have to replace that section completely. It has now been 8 months since the septic field had been replaced and I am still waiting for someone to fix the damage done to my chimney. I am beyond frustrated and hate writing bad reviews. I really wanted to like this company, but I am very unhappy with how the job went and how long it took for Universal to finish the job they started. If you are looking to contract someone out for a bigger job, not just pumping the tank, I would look into other companies."

"Had them come out for a fluctuating water pressure. They came to the conclusion that it was my pressure tank. I had them put it in 4 years ago so it was under warranty. Still cost me $750 for labor under warranty to put in a new one. WOW. They said the old one was no longer available so they tried to get me to pay the $197 difference between the old tank and new one. I voiced my opinion and they did cover the difference. Fast forward 2 days and the problem is still not fixed. Water is still fluctuating and I’m out $750. Was it the tank really?"

A septic tank lasts 20 to 30 years and can extend its life up to 40 years with disciplined maintenance. Regular pumping, annual inspections, and careful use of the system ensure long-lasting performance. Proper care—including flushing only approved materials and scheduling professional cleanings—protects your septic system and maximizes its lifespan.
Leach field failure can often occur due to a lack of proper maintenance, hydraulic overload, or environmental factors. When too much water enters the septic system—like running multiple large laundry loads back-to-back—it can overwhelm the leach field. Regular professional inspections, ongoing maintenance, and spacing out high-water-use activities help prevent failure.
A septic tank shows repair needs when noticeable symptoms arise around your home. Noticeable signs include strong sewage odors at fixtures, recurring pipe blockages, pooling water or damp patches near the leach field, and areas of unusually bright green or spongy grass. These indicators confirm that deteriorating components or clogs exist. Monitoring such signs and scheduling timely professional inspections prevents further costly damage.
Adhering to a strict, scheduled maintenance plan prevents septic system repairs. An annual inspection and a pump-out every three to five years safeguard your system’s performance. Additionally, only flushing waste and toilet paper, installing drain filters, keeping nonapproved items out of the system, and avoiding excessive water use help maintain your septic system’s health and efficiency.
