Action Septic Tank Service
In Sandy Springs, Action Septic Tank Service found this concrete outlet baffle on an older septic tank cracking and deteriorating. The pipe was missing going out of the tank because it had completely deteriorated. This type of problem leads to system backups and surfacing effluent in the drainfield.

To fix, we replaced the old concrete baffle and line going to the drainfield with PVC. A septic tank should have an inlet and outlet baffle. The outlet baffle prevents floating scum and sewage from exiting the septic tank and entering and clogging the drainfield. An effluent screen can often be added to the baffle to provide even more protection to keep scum and sludge from leaving the tank.

I was told by a septic company that it could not be done – fixing my septic tank. ACTION said it was BS. Came out that day and fixed it for a reasonable price. Honest and professional what more could you want

Met with Matt the owner today and one of his guys and wanted advice on a septic tank system that we have in our newly bought home. He took the time to show me the system and how it worked and after the showing, I decided to get the tanks drained and cleaned out.
They did a great job and super glad to have met Matt. Super nice guy and very professional.
Planning to have the system checked and filters cleaned once a year going forward.

Matt has always done a great job with our septic system, sometimes in the worst weather and inconvenient times. His work is high quality, and we'll use him again.

The only septic company I will ever use!!!! Matt was very honest and straight forward. He went the extra mile doing the job right! Uncovered my tank & literally pressure cleaned the bottom of the tank afterwards! Which is a shocker because the last company that came out didn't do it like Matt. It was squeaky clean! You can tell he's a genuine; good soul, hardworking to do people right! Glad I finally have a septic go-to company! Thank You Matt & Action Septic! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐➕

Matt and Hector at Action Septic are top notch. They are always available and I can verify this from experience. These two came to my home on Christmas day to check on the drain field, and spent several hours diagnosing the issue and developing a solution. This could have cost me a small fortune, but Matt was very fair and more concerned about paying his employee for his time on Christmas day rather than his own time. Action Septic is not the cheapest I've used, but if you are interested in locating and resolving the problem, there is no doubt who I will call in the future. Matt truly cares about

I was having septic drain field trouble and got about 5 quotes from different companies for a repair. None of them could actually do a repair and all of them quoted me for an entire new leach field system ranging in price from $6k up to $8k. Matt was the only one who was able to identify the root of the problem and make a repair for half the price of a new system. Overall I’m very satisfied with his work. One tip when dealing with Matt is to be flexible with your time. He really takes his job seriously and will do his best to get the job done right but it means that sometimes his planning is

It takes a special person to assess, repair and troubleshoot septic tanks for 18+years. That man is Matt with Action Septic Tank Service. His undeniable experience and precise diagnostic of our septic tank was truly remarkable. Last week, I noticed sewer flies in my front yard near our septic line. With a quick phone call to Matt he was on site the next day. He conducted a comprehensive inspection and mapped out a great plan and had our septic repaired in two days with very minimal yard damage. He educated me through the whole repair, which I most appreciated. My Family and I are a truly grateful

Called Matt B with an emergency call (tank full), he responded right away, and came out very quickly for an assessment of the problem.
It took a while to locate the tank, but locate it he did, and he was able to determine the problem literally just by probing the ground. And it turned out, when the excavation was complete, he had guessed the problem completely correctly. That's experience talking.
It is rare in today's world that someone will give a spot estimate, and a handshake agreement. Matt was great, to his word, and dead on with his estimate.
Awesome friendly gentleman, he took care of

You can feel safe about giving Matt at Action Septic Tank Service a call for your septic needs. He helped us out with a tank cleaning and also took care of our clogging problem by quickly and efficiently replacing the line from the house to the septic tank. He was the first to respond when we had a Sunday emergency and took care of us until completion. I wouldn't hesitate calling him again and recommend him highly.

After reading the google reviews that were already here I decided to give Action Septic a call when my toilets were backing up. I called after 8:00 pm, and left a message. Matt called me right back, and scheduled a time to come check out the problem. He had me operational within 24 hours, and he did a great job cleaning up after himself. A lot of septic companies that I have dealt with take advantage of the emotional situation that you are in and over charge based on the fact that once they are there they count on you having them do the work regardless of their price.
This is not the way Matt
