Stinky's has been serving local customers since 2001. We pride ourselves on prompt and friendly service. We are a division of Michael J Messick Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning. Should your job need to be collaborated, we give you the advantage of dealing with one company!
This may not be high on your list of priorities right now, but if you do not properly maintain your septic system, you will slowly damage and compromise its functional lifespan.It is therefore recommended that you have your septic tank pumped out every 2 to 3 years depending on how many people are living in the house and the water table in your area.
Also, to help prolong the life of your septic system you should add an enzyme into it once a month. This helps maintain a natural bacteria in the tank to break down the solids, preventing them from entering into the laterals or drainfield. If the solids end up past your tank, eventually your septic system will fail and you will not be able to use your plumbing system in your home.

How do you know when you need a sewer or drain cleaning service? Signs to look for: you have slow drains throughout the house, a stopped toilet, a drain is backing up with water, your garbage disposal clogs, your toilet is overflowing, or the waste pipe in the basement is leaking.

Used Stinky's twice now, both times were great service. The driver technicians are very pleasant to work with, informative and not pushy like some can be with the upsells of enzymes or false warnings about the old system. Plus very fast scheduling turnaround. This last driver technician was Craig and he was just awesome. He was very friendly and informative. Nothing bad to say about the operation and apparently they can handle repairs like baffle replacement etc which is good to know. A++

I called these guys for a septic repair, it seemed like I was a nuisance it took a while for them to get back to me after calling several times. And then finally when they did get back they seem to be very bothered and gave me an very unreasonably hive price just to get rid of me. I'm a home-improvement contractor, and I know these guys are local, and I think it was a big mistake for them to treat me this way because I could've been a good customer of theirs .

I called stinky's to come out and pump out my dads septic tank (he hasn't done that in years!). I requested to have Angel come out, because I basically know him from my place of work. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and overall has a great personality. He was even very friendly to my almost two year old son, who was actually very curious on what he was doing and basically wanted to go play with him in the "mud". These guys know how to hire the right people! Thank you to everyone there!

A lovely, pleasant gentleman showed, and we found the 2" cleanout, but not the septic concrete cover, according to him--he explained the one I claimed was a cover was not the concrete item of question. Oddly, this concrete object, flat and round like a possible lid to something, sits in the lawn pretty much by itself with a couple of trees around it for company--not a landscaping objet d'art, nor even a first stone of a purported pathway. My Stinky man kindly hands me a heavy metal probe, and decides I must poke the ground around the known cleanout for the septic cover, which, per his

I just had my septic cleaned out by Stinky's. I was very happy with the work done for several reasons. I have used other companies and they always try to tell me I need to fix the base or need to buy enzymes or some other way for them to make more money off the visit. Today, a very personable and efficient man came out named Angel and he was knowledgeable about my septic system, made some suggestions for improving performance and told me 3 years would be a reasonable time to schedule the next pump. He cleaned up, put away my hose and was on his way. I would recommend this company. Note

We have always used Stinky's to pump our septic system. They sent a very nice gentleman, Angel, today who not only pumped our septic but did a great job digging to find the septic cap and replaced all the dirt and grass as it was originally. We wete once again impressed with the company and service we received.

We have always used Stinky's for our septic tank services and they have always been prompt and professional. Our latest visit was completed today by one of their technicians named Eddie, who was wonderful. He took his time to explain the conditions he saw in the tank and how we could keep it in the best condition. He brought things to our attention that we would never have thought of otherwise, such as not flushing baby wipes, even if the package says they are safe for septic, being aware that soaps and shampoos and other toiletries can contain grease that can accumulate in the septic, etc

We reached out to Stinky's yesterday and we got an appointment to have our septic tank pumped the very next day in the morning. The service man, Devon, arrived at the said time, was most courteous and professional and conducted his tasks very efficiently.
The service was very well executed. Thank you.

Stinky's just pumped our septic system. Eddie was wonderful, extremely professional, and gave us some tips on helping to save the life of our system. He worked hard and got that thing as clean as a whistle! Price was very reasonable. I could not even get a call back from some other septic companies or a price. Thanks Stinky's! PS..I'm not sure why some bad reviews before...maybe a bad apple employee All businesses get those on occasion. That was not our experience at all!

Be very careful with this guy. Bait and switch in effect. Had many chances to tell me of the additional $70 fee for digging but it was never mentioned until the driver arrived. Never heard of a fee for digging the whole 1 foot to get to the tank. (Apparently the digging fee is common ... as is mentioning it as part of the price when first speaking to the customer.) Had I known beforehand it would have affected my decision to use them, Meanwhile they have wasted my time and I will find someone else to pump my septic. Shooting straight and being honest wins every time. Stinky's loses.

Stinky's sent out an inexperienced person that did not complete the job but wanted to balloon the job to include plumbing work- which oh by the way they can support via their own plumber. Hmmm..... Very poor communications and even when they offered to come out and finish the job- that they did NOT finish- they wanted to charge me for that. Stay far away from this money grabbing service that doesn't back up their work.....

Stinky's came out to my home on June 2nd to clean out my septic tank. Stinky's had cleaned out our septic once before and when they last came they knew that they would have limited access to the tank, so the first time, they had another person assist with the clean out. The person that arrived on June 2 was late and not familiar with how to clean it out telling us that we need to add an access panel, which is not an easy thing costing thousands of $$$. He was here less than 15 mins & left- insisting that he be paid $334 - despite that he never finished the job. We paid him via check

Do not use this business! They charged me over $200 an hour to come to my house and dawdle around. Then they went to buy something that they said would take a couple minutes that really took 50 minutes. On top of that they rounded 2 and a half hours to three hours of work. And after about $700 in costs, they didn't tell me a single thing I didn't already know. Some plumbers are honest, some are just scammers. This is the latter category and I hope to save other people from wasting their time and money.
