I've used Loudoun Septic for routine support and repairs. Every period, the staff had been polite and professional. I am unable to brief review on their repair prices as I did certainly not shop around. When presently there is a threat of a septic backup in to your house, there isn't a great deal of time to store around or haggle. The two times, I received same day service with zero wait time. The fixes were thorough, complete, and the crew cleaned everything up very well. I know they also used a high quality Zoeller pump when I had to have one replaced. It was expensive, but I know it will last. Only 4 stars because I actually can't say for sure how their prices compare. Quality is very good and they are quick to get repairs.

Waste that is not decomposed by the anaerobic digestion must eventually be removed from the septic tank.
