Gary came out promptly, gave us an estimate, explained the different types of drain fields he could install, and then did the job for us. There was very little mess and no damage to any other part of our yard. I would use Whitt's again and would not hesitate to recommend them.

Whitt's did not service Lakeland but referred me to Quality Pumping, Inc.,who came out the same day and located the tank and pumped it out. The job took 2 hours and they charged exactly what they estimated on the phone. This was my first experience in a new home with my first septic tank, and I was very pleased.

Whitt's Septic was highly recommended by one of my neighbors, and they lived up to their recommendation. The owner was prompt and professional from the estimate to the end of the project and was on-site for all of the work. They replaced the drain field, made an extra effort to make sure it was covered in time for the weekend, and did a nice job of raking up the debris (rocks, roots, etc.) that was turned up. I did not have any problems with them, and was very happy with their service.

We used them the last time we needed the septic tank pumped so I called them again this time. They were early for the scheduled appointment, and the cost was actually $10 cheaper than I anticipated. He even gave me some advice on something I could do to avoid having to call him again in the future.

Our septic tank was full and the drain field was not working. The owner was to come out and look at the problem and give me an estimate. We have never seen nor heard from him. I asked that they send the truck to pump out the tank. He came the next day but said he did not have enough hose (required 120 feet.) He said he would get more hose and return the next day. He called the next day to say his truck had broken down. We did not hear from him the next day. The office said he called several times but got no answer. We were home all day. If he called he did not leave a message. Since we were desperate, they referred us to another company. We called another company who was here within a half hour and got the job done. The owner still has not called to give us and estimate.
Description of Work: Pump out a septic tank ($200). Give us an estimate on repairing the drain field. The owner has never called or come out. Other estimates for the job are around $3500.

The man arrived 30 minutes before the scheduled time (which was okay). He did a great job. We had not had a pump out for 9 years. He was very thorough and explained everything as he did it. He was very knowledgeable about septic systems (which, being a city boy, I am not). I was thoroughly satisfied, and know a lot more about septic systems now. I would definitely use this company again. Cost: $190.00 -- very good value.

GARY WHITT IS FROM THE OLD SCHOOL. HE DOES EXCELLENT WORK AND IS PRICED MODESTLY. OVER THE YEARS WHITT HAS PUMPED OUT OUR SEPTIC FOR $165 AND NOW HE'S DONE THIS MAJOR JOB FOR US. GARY ALSO SHOWED US A FEW YEARS AGO THAT THE PREVIOUS COMPANY I USED NEVER TOOK OFF THE SEPTIC TANK COVER, BUT DRAINED WHAT THEY COULD FROM THE OUTFLOW PIPE. IT WAS OBVIOUS BECAUSE 2 PVC PIPES FOR OUR SPRINKLERS RAN RIGHT OVER THE COVER AND HAD TO BE CUT AND REROUTED TO GET TO THE TANK. WE ARE FOREVER GRATEFUL TO HIM FOR THAT.

ALL OF WHITT'S SEPTIC TANK SERVICE PERSONNEL ARE VERY ACCOMMODATING PROFESSIONAL PEOPLE, FROM OWNER GARY GRIFFIN, TO SECRETARY TAMIE GRIFFIN, TO SERVICE TECH ROBERT AND ALL OF THESE FRIENDLY FOLKS WILL BACK THEIR WORDS WITH POSITIVE & PLEASING ACTION. THE PRICE I ENTERED ABOVE, INCLUDED A SENIOR'S DISCOUNT - THE PRICE QUOTED FOR PUMPING A NORMAL TANK WAS $200.00. THEY'RE RESPONSIVE, PUNCTUAL, RESPONSIBLE, PROFESSIONAL, RELIABLE, POLITE, HIGH QUALITY AND REASONABLY PRICED - AND THEY'RE GOOD FOLKS TO KNOW. I'LL USE THEM AGAIN - - IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, YOU SHOULD GIVE THEM A CALL. NOTE: ONE MIGHT WONDER WHY IT TOOK ME FROM 06/07/05 'TIL TODAY TO REPORT MY EXPERIENCE WITH WHITT'S. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SERVICE PROVIDER OR ANGIE'S LIST . . . IT'S MY BELIEF THAT WHEN I GOT TO THE VALIDATION PAGE BACK IN JUNE, I DIDN'T FOLLOW UP WITH THAT ACTION - THEREBY DROPPING ALL OF THE INFORMATION. OH WELL, THIS REPORT IS ON THE MONEY & I STAND BEHIND IT.
Description of Work: DRIVER/TANK SERVICE TECHNICIAN ''ROBERT'' WITH 16 YEARS EXPERIENCE BACKING HIM, ARRIVED ON TIME TUESDAY (06/07/05) & DID SOMETHING NO OTHER COMPANY HAS DONE IN THE SEVERAL TIMES WE'VE HAD OUR TANK SERVICED SINCE MOVING HERE OVER 30 YEARS AGO. HE DID NOT DRIVE HIS TRUCK OVER THE YARD TO GET TO THE TANK BESIDE THE HOUSE, BUT POSITIONED HIS TRUCK IN THE DRIVEWAY ON THE OTHER SIDE OF OUR HOUSE, & USED ALL OF HIS DRAIN HOSE TO REACH THE TANK. HE FOUND THE TANK, DUG TO THE COVER, REMOVED IT, PLACED HIS DRAIN HOSE INTO THE SOLID SLUDGE AND PUMPED THE TANK CLEAN - FLUSHING WITH WATER. AFTER A COUPLE OF TEST FLUSHES TO CHECK THE LINE FROM THE HOUSE, HE SHOWED ME A TRICK: WHEN REPLACING THE COVER, HE PUT ONE OF OUR BLACK PLASTIC BAGS BETWEEN IT & THE TANK TO PREVENT DIRT & ROOTS FROM ENTERING THE TANK, THEN METICULOUSLY REAPPLIED THE SOIL. HE DID THE BEST PUMP JOB WE'VE EVER HAD AND I'D USE WHITT'S SERVICES AGAIN IF THEY'LL JUST SEND ROBERT. ROBERT MADE OUR DAY!
