Cabarrus Septic Service is a booking line, not a septic company. The number on this site rings through to one independently owned septic crew based in the Cabarrus County area that has agreed to answer it, give a range on the phone, and do the work at the number quoted before the tank is opened. The site exists so that a homeowner with a backing-up tank, or a buyer with a closing in ten days, does not have to call six numbers and compare six verbal guesses.
The crew is chosen the way you would choose one if you had the time. North Carolina requires anyone who pumps, installs or inspects a septic system to hold a state certification; ask the crew for its number before the job, the way you would for any contractor. Before a crew takes calls from this line it explains how it pumps a tank fully rather than skimming the liquid, and agrees to three rules: the price is given before the lid comes off, it does not move on the day, and the yard is left graded. One crew serves one county, so you are never passed from a call center to a dispatcher to a subcontractor.
A crew that misses appointments, changes a price after the fact or leaves a hole in the lawn is dropped from the line. That is the whole quality system, and it works because the crew keeps the work only while it earns it. If anything about a job is wrong, call the same number and say so.
Here is what happens when you call. Someone asks what the problem is, when the tank was last pumped, whether there is a riser, and where the house is, and gives you a range. On the visit the crew finds and opens the tank, does the work, and tells you what the levels and the filter said about the field. Inspections come with a written report and photos. Backups and alarms go first, the same day where the route allows.
The service area is Cabarrus County and its edges: Concord, Kannapolis, Harrisburg and Mount Pleasant, the subdivisions along Cox Mill, Odell School and Poplar Tent roads, Rocky River and Georgeville and Midland on the Union County line. If you are not sure whether your address is covered, call and ask.
Two things worth stating plainly. The number quoted before the lid comes off is the number on the invoice unless the job changes, and any repair to a tank, a pump or a drain field is done under a Cabarrus Health Alliance permit, because that is the law and because it is the only way the repair is recorded for the next owner.
