Bowen's is a family and locally owned business with over 35 years of service at the same location. We cover septic tank systems in every way from inspections to large commercial installations. Our service is prompt and professional. We cover the entire Atlanta Metro Area. We offer routine maintenance, backups/emergencies as well as full system repairs and installation. Financing is available.

"Well, the markings for all utilities were taken, but these guys still decided to bring a bobcat, without hesitation as to what could be in the ground, tore up my sprinklers. Common sense, a shovel should have been used for the first few minutes to determine if any wires, pipes (which isn't ideal location) was next to the tank. I was in a meeting, if only the meeting wasn't taken place, i would have stopped them from using a bobcat to rip into the ground without first carefully checking what's near. There are two pvc pipes sticking out of the ground with no purpose, maybe other than to warn something is near the tank. First these guys thought it was my main water line, with all the water pouring out! Thank goodness it wasn't. Then one of the guys explained my septic tank was between my ranch fence and wanted to get his sledgehammer to break the fence. Mind you, I took the fence down or gate in 25 minutes. End, cost me $2500 for the risers, and will cost Me another $1000 for the sprinklers! To management, ry and get your guys to care a bit more about your potential customers property! I'm not sure why all the positive ratings on Google, but I can't help wondering if there's something ? about my house hold that is different!"

"Shady Organization. Long story short, my parents are older, so I manage their rental property for them since they're not really able to do it anymore. On 1/1/2025 I called to make an appointment for the following day to have the septic pumped. When I made the appointment, I specifically stated that for approval for the maintenance they needed to call me and I gave my number. The woman who booked the appointment confirmed that the technician would take a look at the tank and call me with the quote and for approval before proceeding with the maintenance. If I didn't like the quote, they'd re-cover the tank at no cost. I also asked for a rough estimate of the cost I should expect, assuming nothing was wrong and the supervisor told me between $300 - $600, which aligned with the research I saw. The next day, I get an invoice for $1,300; no call, no approval. I called the Company and somehow, they got my aging mothers phone number and called her for approval, even after I told them approval needed to come through me. I don't think she even understood what she was approving, considering she didn't know about the maintenance. I can see that the condition of the tank was worse than expected, but they did not follow proper procedure and then without getting approval from the person with a contractual obligation to manage the property, they went ahead with the maintenance, charging wildly higher than what was expected and a lot higher than the industry average. When I called to complain and get at least a partial refund, I was told that the Operations Manager, Kevin would call me back. He to this day has never called me. Every day they told me they'd call, he wouldn't and when I would call, they would give me some excuse on why he was unavailable. These people gave me the run around for a week and a half. And when he did finally reach him, he was so arrogant and unapologetic for the mistake the technician made. I wasn't yelling or anything, but I brought up being frustrated about having to chase him down because he would never call me when the supervisor said he was going to and he stopped me mid-sentence to say "nobody chases me down", which was very funny considering that was the 4th/5th time I'd called to speak to him. They offered a $350 refund which still didn't put the maintenance cost into the range of what others would have charged. He said he would take the case up to the person above it and promised he'd call me back the following day with the results. I waited 3 days and no call. I finally called back and told the supervisor I would accept the $350 just so that I could be done with them. I understand that things cost more than expected sometimes, but I'd never seen such lack of customer service and professionalism from a Company. It's very clear that the lack of care comes from the tone at the top."

Septic tank services FAQs

Yes, most states require septic tank installers to have a license, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed septic tank professional could lead to poor quality work, added future expenses, and potential code violations. A licensed septic tank installer tackling your projects only protects you as a homeowner. 

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Certified” badge. Angi Certified businesses meet our standards for certification which include:

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

The cost to replace a septic tank is $7,350 for the average homeowner. This cost can range, however, from $470 to $22,500, depending on several factors. Your house size is a significant factor in the overall cost, but other things like material type impact the final price tag. For example, installing a new septic tank in a one-bedroom house typically costs $500 to $900, whereas installing a new septic tank in a five or six-bedroom home is generally $1,200 to $1,600.

The cost of septic tank repair is $1,775 for the average homeowner. However, depending on a few elements, you might pay as little as $170 or as much as $6,100. Location, repair type, and tank material all determine the final cost. For example, replacing the septic tank filter can be as little as $200 to $300. However, repairing septic lines costs more, averaging around $1,500.

A septic tank can typically last 15 to 20 years on average, though your system's lifespan will vary depending on the type of septic system and the materials used. To help increase your septic tank's lifespan, schedule routine maintenance and do not flush items like cat litter, cigarette butts, or paper towels.

Repairing or replacing a septic tank is a job best left to a professional. Your septic tank is an essential part of your home, and if installed or repaired incorrectly, it could lead to significant problems. Things like polluted water, property damage, and health risks to your family could all happen as a result of an improper septic tank repair or installation.
