Don and his crew showed up and replaced the tank from start to finish about 4 hrs . Totally satisfied with the work . I would recommend them for any septic work that needs to be done . And very reasonable on the cost . Testimonial written by Robert on this site.

On 6/9/2026 Elizabeth Dewey had this to say:
Don Thomas saved our entire project! We were digging a new in-ground pool and hit the septic system. Our pool guy called Don and he was at our house in 30 minutes. He gave us excellent advice on moving forward - he even helped us get a perc test for the new system the very next day. We won't ever use anyone else.

On 6/5/2026 Allison Hellmann had this to say:
I'm not one to leave reviews because it's hard to get my act together and actually remember to do it... so when I DO leave a review it is because we got a 5 star situation going on! Haha. Don and his crew came to our rescue when our septic tank backed up. They were prompt and went above and beyond to fix our issue with as little nonsense as possible. He was honest and was able to fix our issue within our budget without telling us we needed to spend a ton of money replacing the whole tank. It was a huge relief after having a big chain septic company quote us a lot more (and charge us for just coming to tell us their ridiculous quote). Call Don Thomas and you won't be disappointed. We will be calling him for any future needs.

On 5/28/2026 Isaac Butler had this to say:
Josh was absolutely phenomenal. I didn’t feel like I was being intrusive watching them and he explained to me everything that was wrong with the system and how to maintain it going forward. He serviced my house in the New Market/Huntsville area and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the job done!
