"An M.E. Flow tech came to the house we own in Virginia to do the plumbing inspection covered by our maintenance agreement with the company. Our tenant had noted that a toilet was leaking, so the repair that was made appeared to be warranted; but $174 was, I thought, pretty exorbitant, since the tech was already there and it was a simple repair. But M.E. Flow has ADAMANTLY refused to provide me with a breakdown of what I was charged for: I sent an e-mail (8 May), called the company (20 May - the person I talked to said she would have a breakdown sent), and wrote a letter (22 Jun) asking: with NO response. I consider this clear deceit and deception. How much was the part; was I charged the full rate as if it were a completely separate visit? Don't know, and I SHOULD. I would NEVER deal with this company. They also did a minor repair to our HVAC system on a different visit, and again: no details (cost of the part, labor charge) for the $177 charge. They clearly have NO intention of being upfront with their customers, so: buyer beware, you're not dealing with people who care about their customers. One other note: Just found out where we live that some HVAC/plumbing companies have their service people working ON COMMISSION. Isn't that depressing. We have to worry now about being "uphold" so the tech can get a higher commission. They have a very vested interest in trying to sell their customers as much as they can. Don't know if M.E. Flow does that, but worth asking if you even think about using them Might account for the rating given by the customer below this review.."

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.
