    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Unanswered
    Contacted Rooter Express to get a new drain field. They said I didn't need one but pumped out septic tank and said several other things needed to be done. They said I didn't need a new drain field and these other repairs would fix the problem. It did not fix the problem, and their own contractor that they sent out later said he could tell that I needed a new drain field just by looking at the yard and the standing water! They have never given me any information on how to finish the job that their contractor told them was needed. No one called me back. Attached is a log of the situation documenting a total lack of professional response. I was told that the $3,000 that I paid to have the other work done to "fix" the problem would be factored in to the final cost of the needed drain field. They tried to tell me that I needed a plumber at my own expense, but I have lived on this property for over 50 years, and I know that nothing is in the line to stop it up. I need a new drain field that I requested in the beginning, and it seems that they have done everything but what I know for sure is needed. I want them to respond with a cost to finish the job, and make it right by applying some of what I already paid them.

    On 01-29-24, I had water coming up in my house through the bathtub & commodes. I immediately grab towels & rugs to soak up the water & ran immediately to the road to cut the water off. I started calling people that do this kind of work; had to leave messages on some of them. Rooter Express just pumped/clean out my septic tank 08-2021. When I talked with Amanda at Rooter Express, I understood her to say that she felt that I would not need my tank pumped agin, since I had it pumped 08-2021 & that the fee would be $150.00. I had asked her about how much would it cost because I wanted to have an idea up front. Taylor T*** was the technician & said that we have been having a lot of rain & that the drain lines were not draining right & the water was going back into the septic tank. He said it was $2,535.00. to me this was overwhelming. I have been talking with some other septic tank companies & they all said that was overcharged. People that I have talked with now are quoting me the anywhere from $300 to $450; at the highest. I know that I will not call Rooter Express again & I don't understand why they had to charge me this amount. Was it because I was old? I also feel that it would be good if they would reimburse me some of this amount back.
