Lentz Septic Tank Services
Septic Tank Services Near Me
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 30, 2014
“We had our septic tank to back-up last year and was so worried that we were going to have to replace it or that something really BAD was wrong with our plumbing. My husband asked a few people around work who he should call and I did the same at my work. We were both told "Call Lentz Septic Services". So we did. They came out the next day and the weather was bad (cold and beginning to sleet), but the gentleman didn't complain at all. He pumped out or septic tank and told us everything that we should and should not do going forward. Gave us pellets to flush down the toilets once a quarter and left us with no worries or concerns at all. We were so grateful for them working so quickly to take care of us and the professionalism of this company even in the bad weather. It is a locally owned and operated company and we are more than happy to give the best review we possibly can! I know, being in customer service, that relationships with your customers is VERY important! We know that we WILL be going to them in the future for any needs we may have that are septic related. Thank you for such GREAT service!!!!!!”
Action Septic Tank Service
Septic Tank Services Near Me
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 15, 2015
“Action Septic Tank Service is only as good as its owner, Matt Banta. I've known him for over 2 years, I know he masters his profession and that (despite life's challenges) he comes thru time after time. Not only do you want Matt on the job as for his service, but you want him for his dependability. Thats rare, not that many don't have what it takes, just that Matt is another "sure thing." If you're a homeowner in need of a dependable Septic Tank Service man, Matt Banta is the truth.”
