"We were very happy with the response and service. Frank & Sam came same-day to diagnose our problem. They diagnosed & cleared a clog in the drain line and cleaned our sump basin to remove the odor. Once the clog was cleared, they also ran the drain camera throughout the lines under the house to check the integrity of the pipes. They were professional, personable, and efficient. They cleaned up thoroughly after they were finished. We'd definitely hire them again."

"The entire team did a great job. They were responsive and worked to my timeline. Main supply line replacement is not pleasant but they made the best of a difficult situation."

"John replaced our sewer line in the fall of 2013. What struck us about John when we first met him was his honesty. He treats his customers like he wants to be treated when someone works on his home. He doesn't overcharge or offer things that aren't needed. There are no hidden costs. He will go out of his way to make sure he helps people, agreeing to do our job in Virginia even though he usually only worked in Maryland at that time (he is licensed in both states). We felt his quote was fair and reasonable and he answered all of our questions in detail. Having a sewer line replaced can be a bit traumatic, just in terms of the destruction it causes in the yard. But John's work was excellent. He used up-to-code materials and when our water line broke in the process, he handled that emergency with grace and did not charge us extra. We thought the guy who did the back hoe work could have made our yard a bit more level when putting the dirt back, but we've had landscaping work done since then, and everything looks good now. That is something you'll want to plan for though in terms of cost. You'll definitely need to put in grass seed or sod, and maybe some creative bushes, flowers, etc. like we did. For our next plumbing job, we will definitely hire John again. He is an all-around great guy, very knowledgeable and we trust him with our home. We've also recommended him to a family member in Olney.

"Robert Boccia, the owner of the company, came to my rescue within about an hour of when I called. A rental property had a complete blockage in the waste line. He rearranged his schedule so they could do the line replacement the next day. His crew began working around 9am. The waste lines for all the other houses in the neighborhood line up with the front bedroom window. That also lined up with where waste water lines were found in the house. The crew worked hard to minimize damage to the tree that my late father had planted and loved. When, after several attempts, the waste line couldn't be found, calls were made to the City offices to determine where the line actually was. While time and effort could have been saved by calling ahead, in most cases, it wouldn't have been necessary because waste lines are typically buried in a predictable fashion. My house proved to be the exception. Finding out where the waste line was actually located turned out to be good news and bad news. Instead of being to the left of the walkway to the house, it was on the right UNDER a concrete parking pad. This significantly changed the scope of the job. Again, the crew found a solution that minimized damage: instead of breaking up the entire parking pad to dig out the old line, they took out the rightmost portion of the pad, which, happily, came away cleanly, and dug a trench to the right of the clogged/collapsed portion of the line. They found the waste line close to the house, attached new pipes and then ran a new line to the right of the old line, essentially doing a bypass. I had previously spoken to another company about my waste line problem, and they didn't know their right hand from their left. I'm so glad I called Glenoak Plumbing to do this job. It needed to be done immediately and correctly. It was."

"We needed our water heater replaced. It was somewhat complicated because we wanted to upgrade the tank in size, but we had limited room for it. There was some back and forth in finding the appropriate tank, but the salesperson and technicians were very pleasant to work with throughout the whole process. When the pipes were moved and the tank was installed, it was done efficiently and professionally. We are very happy with our experience and the final product."

"Mr. Eagle came out next morning to look at site and discussed what his plan would be to add new drain field in. He took care of working with county and inspections, even laid out a different option that dug less of my yard up! He and his son got to work and had it done in a days time. Very nice family to deal with, good value, great response and quick work!"

"Last night we found out toilet backing up. Crazy overflowing water. We were lucky we had a wet vac.... Searched all night and don't sleep easy. Called first thing in the am. Answered right away. Had great pricing and was willing to come immediately. Offered various payment options. Were friendly and masks per covid-19 protocol. Finished the job in about an hour. Cleaned up and rolled out. Turns out we needed our main line snaked and toilet seal replaced. They removed the whole toilet to do the job. Would definitely use them again!! Thanks guys!"

"If looking for someone to do the job quickly or special color.  I wouldn't recommend, otherwise use them.  I broke my toilet on the 13th of November, it took the firm until 3 December tp replace.   Granted there was a holiday in there but the time limit was horrible The replacement went well and I have no complaints about the final product.   I would recommend that they keep in stock a couple of standard colors as not to take as long.
 
It will cost me between $8,000.00 and $14,000.00 to replace the ruined drywall and electric in my dining room.  Plus I had to threaten once to get the firm to reply.

FAQs for septic system installation and replacement projects in Middle River, MD

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.
