Description of Work: We were having a 4th of July family BBQ and on Sunday sewage began backing up in the bathroom. I called Judge and he was here within 2 hours. He quickly pumped out the tank and identified another issue which he couldn't resolve but he put me in touch with someone else who came out that day as well. His quick response and honest approach was much appreciated. I did pay a Sunday premium but it was worth it!

Description of Work: First of all, he took a lot of time over the phone to explain my system to me. This was important because it was new to me and I didn't understand it. He told me some things I needed to do and then called me back to see how things went. | |Then he was going to lend me an aeration pump just so I could use it until I got my other one repaired. He didn't know me from Adam yet he was going to do this. I ended up buying a good used one from him for a good price. | |Then, as soon as it was possible (from snow and ground freeze) he came out and pumped my tank- in the RAIN! They even had to dig a hole. Other providers said they had to wait till spring. This was important because we had been having trouble. | |These guys are honest, hard working and more than helpful. I can't imagine anyone doing a better job. Thanks!

Description of Work: I called and set an appointment for Judges to come out and look at my aireation septic system. The concrete clorine box was deteroiating, the sand pit was clogged and needed cleaned, the airerator motor had expired and the tank needed pumped. Judge called, came out AND showerd up on time. He went over the work needed to be done and told me he would call back to schedule the work. His office called the next day and scheduled the work to be done a few days later. Judge and his crew showed up promptly at the time he said he would be there, went right to work replacing the clorinator box, cleaning the sand pit, replacing the burned out motor and pumping out the tank. He also installed collars on the tank inlets to prevent ground wash from going into the system ( what he figured had ruined the old motor). He finished all the work, cleaned up everything like he wasn't even there. I would highly recomend him and his company.

Judge is the most knowledgeable person I've found when it comes to old septic systems. He came out to pump our septic tank, and was to come back out to fix the drainage. However, the office staff was out, and my request was waylaid for a few weeks. When I finally contacted them, they apologized and put me right on the schedule. They arrived on time, and were very professional. We were not sure what we would find, but Judge knew what he was looking for and soon found and fixed the problem. He allowed me to take pictures of the work for future reference, and was very fair in his pricing.
Description of Work: My septic tank was not draining into the leech bed. Judge's came with a small bobcat, carefully dug around the tree and found the problem area. He pumped out the tank and the lines and made sure the tank was draining. Then he laid some rocks and covered the area. He also put in a riser, so we don't have to dig for the cover again.

Everything went well, they did call the morning they were to come and say they were running late and it would be a couple hours later than scheduled. Once they arrived they had everything done in good time.
Description of Work: We purchased our house 3 years ago and had to have our septic solid waste tank dug to allow access for pumping it out, they placed pavers(?) and a cap to allow access again in the future. and pumped out the tank which was 30 years old and never done.

They came out to clean out septic. Because they had to dig to find the lid they suggested I have a proper top put on it and they wanted to check the baffle at the other end of the tank. They were only scheduled to do the septic clean out so they had to come back 2 days later to do the top. The work was done with no hassles, I would definitely suggests them to anyone.

Judge came out on day one. I had no idea where the tank was and Judge was unable to locate the tank by probing with a metal rod. He came back on the following Monday and located it using a radio transmitter that was flushed down the toilet. It turned out the tank was a couple of feet deep. Judge dug until he located the cover. A couple days later, Judge pumped it out (said it was the worst he had seen in years) and seeing that the pipe was cast iron, recommended that I replace it. In replacing the pipe, his men found that a sink and bathtub drain were going to a nearby creek. They tied these lines into the new line, put in two cleanouts and put a riser on the tank so that there is no need to dig in the future.
Description of Work: Judge located the septic system of a home I just purchased and cleaned it out. He replaced a cast iron pipe running from the house to the septic tank. He tied in some lines that were running to a nearby creek so that they are now running into the septic tank. He installed two cleanouts.

Judge showed up on Monday and performed the work as he did the last time we hired him. He cares about what he does and wants to make sure the customer is happy. He also is eager to inform customers of how to properly care for their septic system. Judge is an honest, hard working individual. I highly recommend him. He is currently very busy and overbooked, as his other workers were unable to assist him on other jobs to to various reasons. Due to this, Judge was late (was supposed to show on Friday but instead showed up on Monday). I gave a C for this, but really...overall he is an A. If you need any excavation, drainage or septic work, I would not hesitate to call Judge.
Description of Work: Judge came out and serviced our septic tank. He cleaned out two 1000 gallon tanks for us. He also took $20 off the bill because we are on Angie's List.

Judge was very accommodating and always on time, if not early. Originally we had expected the cistern to only be about 6 feet deep, but it turned out it was full of old shingles. Judge was able to quickly get the right equipment and labor out that same day to finish the job. He only charged an additional $300 from the original estimate for the extra equipment/labor. He also had to work around a buried wire and close to my foundation. I wasn't pleased with the fact that an aluminum can was used to cap the pipe into the house (even though it is capped on the inside of the house), that the dirt was of low grade (lots of rocks and boulders), and that the exhaust pipe remained with no cap, but was pleased that he disposed of the shingles and most of the materials and was able to get the work done quickly and with no issues given the circumstances. Overall Judge was great, and I would certainly do work with him again. He even removed some logs from my driveway for me free of charge.
Description of Work: Dug out old cistern (approximately 6 Ft wide and 10-12 Ft deep), disposed of the old structure and contents, and backfilled with dirt.

I ASKED IF THEY COULD HELP IN MOVING SOME LIMESTONE AND TAKING OUT TREES - WHICH THEY DID. I AM EXTREMELY IMPRESSED WITH THE PROFESSIONALISM AND QUALITY OF WORK COMPLETED. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR ANY DRAINAGE, EXCAVATING, OR SEPTIC WORK TO BE DONE. OVERALL EXPERIENCE WAS AN A. JUDGE ALWAYS RETURNED MY CALLS. HE CARES ABOUT HIS WORK AND IS VERY CONCERNED ABOUT DOING THE JOB RIGHT.
Description of Work: JUDGE'S SANITATION & EXCAVATING COMPANY CAME TO MY PROPERTY AND GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE FOR SOME DRAINAGE ISSUES I HAVE. I ACCEPTED THE ESTIMATE AND JUDGE CAME BACK IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME TO COMPLETE THE WORK. NOT ONLY DID HE AND HIS CREW COMPLETE THE WORK IN ONE DAY (WHICH WAS LAYING DOWN OVER 300 FT OF PIPE) BUT THEY ALSO DID EXTRA WORK FOR ME AT NO ADDITIONAL COST.
