"Prior to installation, my water heater was old but compliant with local laws and passed inspection. After installation, it failed inspection, and Raider Rooter refused to address the issue. They claim I need an electrician to install a shut-off valve, citing a “new law,” but this requirement has existed since 2011—something any reputable plumber should know. I offered to split the cost; they declined, leaving me with a water heater that now fails inspection. Their contract did not disclose this potential need, which would have changed my review. Instead, they left me with a non-compliant water heater."

"ALERT: I BELIEVE THIS COMPANY IS AFTER INSURANCE DOLLARS AND WASN'T CONCERNED ABOUT CORRECTING THE REAL ISSUE. Drain King Plumbing in Pompano Beach came to my house to provide me with an estimate because the land next to the side of my home felt like a sinkhole was forming. Steven McKeehan, owner of Drain King Plumbing, diagnosed me with a leak. He stated that it probably would be an insurable claim. I was clear with him that not everything is an insurable claim and try to prevent an insurance claim. After my comment he ran a “test” on my indoor plumbing and asked my husband and I to leave the room, my kitchen and laundry room ended up flooded and I was forced to call in a restoration company. He called in his recommendation, Restoration 1, because it was 6PM in the evening and he told me it had to be taken care of now (I will do a review for them because their business practices are horrible too). Steven sent me a quote for $50,000 and wanted the 25% deposit of $12,500. His quote was written expressly for an insurance claim. The bill was 97% access and egress which insurance companies are obligated to pay. We didn’t sign his quote because we got a second inspection and estimate. It turns out that Steven misdiagnosed the issue for my house because I don't have an indoor leak (we had one minor leak on the outside plumbing), but a terrible backfill issue underneath our home which isn’t an insurable claim. In addition, if I had Steve do his work and ignored the real issue, my house may have gone underground. After the fact, Steven did try to claim that his manager did the quote and it should have been $23,500. I don’t believe him because he is the one who called and asked for the deposit. If he really believed it shouldn’t have been $50,000, then why did he ask for a 25% deposit at the cost of $12,500. A business man should know that $12,500 is 25% of $50,000 not $23,500. By the way, the reason we contacted this company was because a good friend of our family works for the company and is Steven’s girlfriend."

Septic tank cleanings or pump outs FAQs

Wastewater from your home from your showers, toilets, sink drains, and washing machines flows to your septic tank. When wastewater enters your septic tank, it divides into three parts sludge, water, and scum. Outlet and inlet pipe positions and baffles keep sludge and scum from leaving the tank. Wastewater, the effluent, moves down pipes to the drain field.

If a septic tank is not pumped, it can lead to serious issues. The accumulation of sludge and scum will eventually overflow into the drain field, causing blockages and system failure. Pipes may become clogged, leading to sewage backups in your home. Pumps can also break due to excessive buildup, and the drain field may become damaged, requiring costly repairs or replacement.

Signs that your septic tank needs to be pumped include unpleasant odors around your property, slow draining sinks and toilets, gurgling sounds in the plumbing, and sewage backups in your home. You may also notice standing water or damp spots near the septic tank or drain field. If you observe any of these signs, it's important to schedule a pumping promptly to prevent system failure.

Septic tank odors are typically caused by gases produced during the breakdown of organic waste in the tank. If these gases escape, it can indicate a problem such as a crack in the tank, a clogged drain field, or issues with the venting system. Odors can also result from overflows due to a full tank. Addressing septic tank odors promptly is important to prevent more serious issues.

You should pump your septic tank every three to five years, depending on factors like tank size and household size. Larger households generate more wastewater and may require more frequent pumping. For example, a family of four with a 1,000-gallon tank may need pumping every three years, while a smaller household with a larger tank might extend to five years. Regular maintenance ensures optimal system performance.
