"I consulted Angi on Easter Sunday April 20, 2025 after the septic backed up into the shower the previous night. Called several of the listed vendors; however, the only one taking call on the Holiday was Routerproxpress. The only reason I chose this company was because they could come out on Easter Sunday. They told me that they would arrive between 2 and 6 pm. I had a call at 4:30 that their trucks tanks were full and there was no place open on Easter to dump the trucks tanks. They rescheduled to Monday April 21 between two to six. I requested that they come after 4:30 since I had a very important appointment with my bank. They said they could arrange that. At 3:20 I had a call from the technician that he had located the tank and instead of the $500 quoted on the phone It would be $887, due to the large size of the septic tank at 1500 gallons and a large amount of solids. This seemed high but I wanted the problem taken care of ASAP, so I okayed the work. He also told me he thought there was a break in the line between the septic tank and the cross over line to the drainage field. Quoted over $6000 for the repair. I told him I wanted to get a second opinion and estimate before I would approve any further work. I also asked if it would be possible to use the toilets, sinks, and showers for a week or two while I did so. He said that would be okay. I instructed him to put the cover back on the tank and leave the dirt off the top. Later that night, the septic backed up again, this time flooding the basement. I contacted the office who called a manager John. John came out to see what happened at my request. He told me that he would call a water mitigation company and that routerproxpress or insurance would take care of it. A company called Propertymedics called me shortly and came out at 2 am on Tuesday am on April 22. They were pressing me to sign a work contract but I informed him (Claud) that Router pro xpress had called them out and said they would be responsible for the water mitigation. Claud said he suspected a blockage rather than a break in the line. I called the RXP office on Tuesday April22, ultimately speaking to the owner, Jeff. I explained that I was quite unhappy that we had flooded after the technician said it was okay to use the sinks, toilets . I was suspicious that the technician hadn t emptied the tank considering he was gone when I arrived 20 minutes after he had called me. And he had misdiagnosed the problem and given us the wrong information about using the sinks, toilets and showers. I said I would give him a poor review, contact Angi, and was considering a charge back to my credit card. He said the work was already done and he would put a lien on my house if I did. He said he would send a crew to do the repair and I better be ready to pay the $6000 plus bill then. I told him he should come with the crew and I would be there in person. The office said they would be out between 2 and 6 pm. In the meanwhile, I was planning to have another service provider out to diagnose my septic problem and get a quote and to be on hand when RXP showed up."

"We’re open and honest about process and pricing. No surprises. Friendly and efficient men."

"We had an emergency septic tank issue as family was coming in for Mother’s Day. Justin was very responsive. His team could not have been nicer and they saved the weekend. Definitely recommend them. "

"I am leaving a review before the work is even started. I received a quote from another company and scheduled the work. When they showed up, they tried to triple the cost. I told them to get out of my house. I then called Rooter Pro Plumbing to come out and give me a quote. Jerimey Jackson came out and looked over the situation and then put me on a conference call with the owner. They agreed to match the quote I received from the other company even though it was seriously underbid. They are a great company to work with. They are scheduled to come out this week to start the project. I would highly recommend a company with such integrity in the employees and the owner. I look forward to working with them."

"Well, the markings for all utilities were taken, but these guys still decided to bring a bobcat, without hesitation as to what could be in the ground, tore up my sprinklers. Common sense, a shovel should have been used for the first few minutes to determine if any wires, pipes (which isn't ideal location) was next to the tank. I was in a meeting, if only the meeting wasn't taken place, i would have stopped them from using a bobcat to rip into the ground without first carefully checking what's near. There are two pvc pipes sticking out of the ground with no purpose, maybe other than to warn something is near the tank. First these guys thought it was my main water line, with all the water pouring out! Thank goodness it wasn't. Then one of the guys explained my septic tank was between my ranch fence and wanted to get his sledgehammer to break the fence. Mind you, I took the fence down or gate in 25 minutes. End, cost me $2500 for the risers, and will cost Me another $1000 for the sprinklers! To management, ry and get your guys to care a bit more about your potential customers property! I'm not sure why all the positive ratings on Google, but I can't help wondering if there's something ? about my house hold that is different!"

"They are nothing short of fantastic. I was quoted by another company anywhere from 5 grand to 12 grand. Turns out all I needed was a pump out and a blockage cleared for a lot less money. Thomas septic was honest and genuine. Traits so rare lately. I highly recommend them. You won’t find a team more capable or honest. Quality work done without all the bs and unneeded expenses that is Thomas septic! Honestly if I could I would give them 10 stars. Seriously call them first and you won’t need to call anyone else! I am so grateful to have found them!"

"Bradley was very pleasant and helpful. He was very informative regarding the issue that I am facing with my pipes and outdoor tree roots and he let me know what the next steps would be to hopefully resolve the issue."

"Great job!!"

"I contacted Mr. Franklin for what I thought was regular maintenance. I had never had the septic pumped before and was unsure where the tank was located as there were no visible indication of the piping. Mr. Franklin poked around but could not locate the piping so he contacted the County Health Department and obtained a copy of the blue print outlining the location of the septic tank. Turns out the line was inactive and the tank did not need to be pumped. After all the trouble Mr. Franklin went through between the drive out here, the hour he spent poking around trying to find the septic tank and waiting for the county to call back, he refused to accept any money from me. He would not even accept a trip charge. In a world were honesty just doesn't seem to exist anymore, it is so good to know that there are still trustworthy businesses out there! Mr. Franklin's knowledge of what to look for toppled with the time he took just to educate me is just priceless! I wish all businesses was like Franklin Septic!"
