Septic tanks need to be cleaned out on a regular basis, where I live, it is required every 5 years by county ordinance. This is the second time I have had The Septic Doctor perform the service. Once again, they did a very thorough job, checked the tank to make sure everything looked good, and did not leave a mess. The technician today was Bill, who is experienced, explained everything, and did a great job. With proper maintenance, a septic tank can last a very long time and can be very economical.

From the first email to the end result, The Septic Doctor had our drain field issue resolved in just a few days. The first visit, they gave me a quote and put me at ease that we did not have a ‘big’ problem that would require a load of money. They were spot on with their initial assessment, timeline, and estimate. I appreciate the expertise and professionalism that was shown by the crew, 10/10 would recommend them.

When I had an issue with my Septic they were quick to set up an appointment and were able to come same day! They gave me options that worked best and set up the follow up. They were very professional and had great integrity. Will continue to use services in the future and highly recommend.

The Septic Doctor is honest and reasonably priced. All of the guys who came to our house knew what they were doing, went above and beyond, and resolved our issue. I highly recommend these guys for septic/drain issues. They also seem to be the best deal in the area for septic pumping.

This company is honest, fair, fast and reliable. We had a septic issue that left us struggling with both our homeowner's insurance and several other septic/plumbing companies. After hearing about Septic Doctor from a friend, we decided to give them a call. Thank God we did! They came to our Dinwiddie home, diagnosed the problem and provided an estimate within a day of our initial call. The work was scheduled within a week. The work was completed early and UNDER budget. When is the last time you had a home improvement repair come in under budget? I will continue to use these guys and refer these

The employees seem knowledgeable and very helpful, however, I would never recommend doing business with the owner, Mr. King. His company performed some work on an old septic system of a short-term rental we were staying in. We had multiple septic backups at this home (in 8 months) due to what was discovered to be a repair caused by erosion and a sinking inlet. Long story short, Mr. King decided to write an email on the owner's behalf to say we were the cause of the repair (stating he found wipes in the system). Mr. King never came to the property, no wipes were ever found in the system, and per
