I had them come out less than six weeks ago for an issue with a drain and having it snaked. The issue came right back and was not properly addressed by the company. If you’re looking for a good experience, please look elsewhere. However, I would highly recommend Falkowski Sewer Service, they found a mass of roots that was missed by Sheesley’s and were able to correct the issue with ease, and in no time at all!

Sheesley's Sewer Service provided prompt and professional service. Our 1,000 gallon septic tank was pumped for $235. And there was a $15 truck charge. We would use them again.

Overall we are very pleased with the work that was done. The first appointment was made for 2:00 in the afternoon, I had to leave work at 1:00 in order to be there on time, unfortunately I received a call at 2:30 letting me know they weren't going to be able to make it. Rescheduled for the next day and was told they would be there between 8:30 and noon, received a call at 8:30 letting me know they were on their way. They were able to replace the sink in the bathroom that I had purchased, unfortunately they had to also replace the pipes under the sink because they were corroding. They showed me the pipes and explained everything. The sink in the basement is an old cast iron sink and did not have any handles or faucets. They were able to order the new faucets and install them within a few days. They were very professional and I would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: Installed new faucet in bathroom sink along with sink in basement.

Description of Work: They arrived when they said they would, they proceeded immediately to fix my problem. They ran into an additional problem and had to return to their shop and get an another machine. They fixed my problem in very little time. I would call them again anytime this problem reoccurs.

Very well, they came and were very curious and professional. It took care of the problem the first time.
Description of Work: Snaked the pipe to remove roots from the main sewer pipe leading out of the house as the sewer was backing up in the home.

I had used this provider to pump my septic tank prior to their doing this service. They did not keep records so when they tried to put in the septic drainage field they spent hours digging up my front yard, side yards and back yard to find the septic tank cap that they had previously pumped. They also had to look where the cap went to the drainage field. They charged me more than twice their original estimate and left my yard a wreck. After they were done it needed thousands of dollars of excavation. They did it when it was wet and muddy destroying the yards. I had the house for sale on the market at the time so I really was not thrilled. They were late and nasty on the phone.

Upon review of The Member's property history, I have found clarification to his statements regarding our service. We had worked for The Member in 1995, 2006 prior to the May 2010 service. We had pumped his septic tank in 1995 through a 6-inch inlet extension. This is not the proper way to pump a septic tank. It was uncovered for us at the time of service, we had no digging or locating involved; all we did was pump the tank from the access provided. In 2006, The Member must have had a backup or a plugged line, we hand dug the inlet and ran a hand snake to clear the line he was charged a minimum service call charge. We were called in May 6, 2010 to provide pumping and a Sanitary Survey for the sale of his home. In doing a Sanitary Survey, we require that the tank is dug and pumped properly. We need access to all three ports on the concrete septic tank; we also inspect the drainage field and all visible components of the septic system, including the plumbing fixtures in the home. At this time we found that the system was in failure. We then made all the proper coordination with the local health department to determine the best and most cost effective system replacement for the The Member and the new owners. On June 11, 2010 after approval of our written contract, we installed two 4ft x 8ft precast drywells with stone collars and concrete covers. We connected the existing septic tank to the distribution box then to the two drywells. Additionally it was required to dig and install a two-line tile field and connect the existing tank to the tile field via a distribution box. All work was approved by the Local Health Department. Unfortunately with the digging to pump the septic tank and the installation of two new drywells and connections, 2-line tile field, yes his yard was disturbed. The contract did not provide for finish grade or topsoil and seed, just equipment grade upon completion. June in our area is usually very wet, and I am sure The Member was eager to get the sale of his home completed; therefore we were put in an undesirable situation for cleanup of his yard.

My housemate was orginally told that it would be a free estimate plus $346 to run the camera. How is that a free estimate? My housemate then talked to Mike the owner and he stated that it was his camera and he would charge $50 to run the camera. Two of the employees came to my home to run a snake through my laundry room drain. They ran the snake and ran into an obstruction about 15 foot into the pipe. They said they could not run the camera because it was wet, of course it is wet. I came back to town I called them at least a half a dozen times to get an estimate on the work. The first time Mike said that he hadn't realized that his guys had even been to the house. Finally after many more calls to the office and several promises that I would have an estimate one of the women gave me Mike's cell. I finally got an estimate 2 days later. What terrible service after the fact.
Description of Work: Snake my laundry room drain and was suppose to run a camera.

Upon review of the history on this case, Sheesley's was contacted on 4/30/13 to snake and televise the sewer line at their home. The work was then rescheduled to 5/3/13. At that time our techs attempted to clean the sewer line using the electric snake and were only able to get out the line about 6 ft. The line was broken under the floor and they brought back stones and grit. To use our video equipment the line needs to be clean therefore we would not use the camera in this case due to no visibility in the line. The customer was charged for only the electric snake service call. An estimate was provided on 5/17/13 to jackhammer the floor, install a sewage basin with pump, plumb existing drain line to main at the front of the home. Drywall and ceiling needed to be cut to access and repaired upon completion. Apparently the cost was not in the price rage that the clients wanted to accept. Therefore her review written the very same day. We try to accomodate our customers of which we have many, some we can make very happy others we cannot. The work that was provided to [Member name removed] was done in a timely manner at our stated costs and we were able to determine the cause of their backup immediately at the time of our service.

We called Sheesley's due to a clogged drain connected to our gutter downspouts. It was very difficult to diagnose the exact problem, but the Sheesley's crew was very professional and stuck with it until the problem was solved. A less professional team might have just given up. The main office was professional and easy to deal with. The appointment was scheduled promptly and the the crew showed up on time. I am extremely satisfied with Sheesley's work and would highly recommend them!
