MIKE GEPNER CONSTRUCTION, Septic & Excavating

All of the septic in the equipment I'm sure of fine my only problem is that I don't have any of the information on my septic system I don't have my proposal paperwork I don't have my receipt paperwork I don't get the service that I am supposed to get every 3 months that is required by our account there's a noise in my meter that's running out there and it needs to be reset on to something more sturdy

The circuit to the septic system pump had short circuited because rain got into the circuit box. Mike fixed it and secured the plastic weather protective box so it would open in the wind. A maintenance agreement for septic systems is required by state law, so I also signed a maintenance agreement with Mike. I am happy with his service and I am planning on signing an agreement for the upcoming year.

Mike Gepner and seven other septic system installers were provided a drawing and specifications for a septic system I had designed and gotten approval to install from Travis County. Mike’s proposal was in line with the other proposals I received with in a few hundred dollars. I ask Mike to come to the site to review the project as I did with all the other contractors on the bid list. He came and reviewed the project with me. After I had made sure he understood the breadth and scope of the project, I ask him for an estimate of when he could start the job and how long he estimated it would take to finish the job. After I satisfied my self he could to the job, I as him if he wanted to change his proposal. He said the price he had given me was a good price and he did not change the proposed price to the install the system. Mike started the job within the period he said he would and completed it within the time he said it would take to complete the work. I am a registered professional engineer in Texas with experience in designing and installing equipment. I know the difference between right and wrong with regard to this type of work. As I had designed the system, I wanted to make sure it was installed exactly as it was shown on the drawings and the specifications were followed as written. I am very aware some contractors want to rush in, slam the job in, and run away as soon as possible with your money in their pocket. Mike did not work like this on my project. One thing I noted was Mike did the work himself. He did not stand around and direct the work of others or assign work for others to do and then leave and stay gone for indeterminate periods of time. The project was installed as per the drawings and the specifications were followed. I was on-site the entire time the project was being installed and there was never a cross word. Mike conducted himself as a professional and knows what he is doing. The highest complement I can give a person who has done work for me is to answer the question of whether I would have him do another project for me in the future or would I recommend him to my friends. The answer to both those questions is a strong YES. I would hire him again with no hesitation and I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family if they should be looking for someone to do this type of work.

I called Mike Gepner for a second estimate on repairing my septic system. The first fellow diagnosed the problem as a failed pump and gave me an estimate that was not affordable. Mr. Gepner was able to determine that my septic pump was working fine, it was the wiring to the pump that had failed. He fixed me up for one third the other guys estimate and left me feeling confident that the job was done right.

I can not find enough words of appreciation to thank the owner of this business, or commend him for his professional, ethical and personal approach to business. You could not find a more honest person to deal with, nor straightforward and knowledgeable. Mike managed to take a very complicated and confusing process and break down my options and help me make an informed and cost effective decision. I met with 3 septic specialists and after learning that I had a non approved/permitted septic system, I went to speak with the county inspector who recommended Mike Gepner. If you have the opportunity to work with Mike, consider yourself fortunate - he is a gem of a human being and a wonderful business to work with. Mike understands septic systems, options and is very well respected by county inspectors.
