Septic specialty — pumped and emptied a full septic same Friday afternoon when a competing company couldn't come until Monday.
1 cited review
“I called one septic company on Friday morning at about 8am but they couldn't come until Monday, which obviously would not do, and then I called Sun Plumbing and Septic and spoke to a very nice young man who told me he could be out there the same day”

1 cited review
“Been using Sun since the 1980s. Both myself and my parents. They're pretty straightforward, and Nate (and Patricia) just takes care of business. I keep using them because it's hassle free.”

“Nathan (hope I’m spelling it right) was absolutely amazing! My garbage disposal went out and he scheduled our service promptly. He was extremely professional, responsive, and even helped in referring another company for other work I needed done.

“Our toilets stopped flushing on Thursday evening due to our septic being full (which I only figured out that same day), and despite my greatest efforts with a plunger they wouldn’t drain, so we had a real problem on our hands. I called one septic company on Friday morning at about 8am but they couldn’t come until Monday, which obviously would not do, and then I called Sun Plumbing and Septic and spoke to a very nice …”
