On time, described everything in detail, worked fast and did not leave a mess. Amazing will continue my service with them moving forward!
Busy Bee pumped our septic tank and installed risers so we could access the tank in the future without digging up the ground each time. Dwayne in particular was very kind, knowledgeable, and professional - we'll definitely use Busy Bee again in the future for our septic maintenance/service.
Completely professional and keeps you informed every step of the way , the crew obviously knows what they’re doing and go above and beyond!
Highly recommend! The whole team at Busy Bee were wonderful! Jaime in the office, Vinny and Charlie and the electrician (whose name I cannot remember for the life of me ;) ) all provided excellent level of service. I had a very complicated Aerobic system issue that took an entire day to fix. The team kept at it,…
Needed my parents EOne tank changed they coordinated with town for permit and Site Specific Design for delivery with precision. Allowed to pay in three payments due to nature of work.
Fast high quality service. The foreman Dwayne was pleasant, highly skilled and professional. I really can’t say enough good things about Dwayne and his crew.
From the moment Vinny showed up to estimate my septic job, I knew this is the company I want to do business with. Jamie in the office is pleasant and helpful. The crew that showed up on time as promised was headed by an extremely talented guy named Chooby. Chooby and his crew are the best group of guys that I…

The entire team at Busy Bee (especially Jolene and Chupi) were amazing and helpful throughout the entire process of having my old tank replaced. They were quick and very responsive. I regret not speaking with them sooner! I highly recommend Busy Bee Septic. If you have problems, don’t wait just give them a call. Owner is also very down to earth and honest.

It was a pleasure to deal with Busy Bee Septic. I had an issue with my septic (due to heavy rains and not cleaning it) and with one phone call the matter was taken care of immediately. Very professional and good quality work. They are reliable and offer great service. Would highly recommend and will use this company in the future
Busy Bee is great. Jason was the technician who helped me out , very professional and informative. They did a great job for a fair price.

Over the years I have had to hire out several different companies to do repairs to my home. All of those companies, with the exception of one, were unprofessional, unpleasant to deal with and the quality of their work was sub standard at best. I needed a repair/replacement of my septic line going out to my leach…
