Septic Pumping
Over time, solids build up in your septic tank and need to be removed to keep your system running efficiently. Routine pumping helps prevent backups, protects your drain field, and extends the life of your septic system. We use professional-grade equipment to safely and efficiently pump your tank, ensuring your system stays in peak condition.
Septic Inspection
Your septic system is a critical part of your property’s infrastructure. A thorough septic inspection ensures that the system is functioning properly, helps detect issues early, and prevents costly emergencies down the line. Whether you’re buying a property, selling one, or simply maintaining your current home, our inspections provide a detailed evaluation so you can make informed decisions with confidence.

- Lynda McGill8/06/2025I needed my septic tank pumped and I asked my neighbor who they used. She said they had used Metcalf Septic Services for years so I gave them a call. Mr. Metcalf answered my phone call promptly and quoted me a price that I felt was fair and very reasonable. He was at my home promptly the next day and took care of the job efficiently. What a friendly and professional person he was, and he even took the time to explain the workings of my septic system and even answered all of my questions, clearly and concisely. Ditto also for the young man working with him. They absolutely know their job. In the future, I will not hesitate to contact them again for any of my septic tank needs.read moreread less×Lynda McGill8/06/2025I needed my septic tank pumped and I asked my neighbor who they used.

- Rod Douglas7/30/2025Knowledgeable, friendly and professional. Took a lot of time during the estimate to locate the tank. Fair, competitive bid. Actual work of digging to tank, adding risers and cleaning out tank took a little longer than expected. Work was really needed and they got it all out.read moreread less

- Aubrey Green7/11/2025I spoke with Jeremy about issues with my lift tank. He was very friendly and transparent about pricing. I know he gave me a fair deal. And he fixed my problem after days of my septic system not working and having several people out to work on it. He sent his son Aiden, who was impressive with his work ethic and knowledge. He installed a whole new pump and it should last me 20 years, hopefully. But I will use them again for any septic issues in the future.

Never have I ever had a better experience. The Metcalf family was on time, diagnosed the problem pretty quickly, replaced a broken septic and did such a great job ahead of our closing date. It was a huge undertaking. There has never been a better septic company. I will personally and for all of my friends and clients highly recommend them. Thank you all for all of your hard work.
