## The honest read

A recent first-time home buyer called Bill JR and Son Septic for an inspection and said the company came out quickly and inspected the entire system. The company describes itself as family owned and operated, with work that includes septic repairs, septic tank installations and tank cleaning, and it lists Newtown, Shelton, Monroe, Fairfield, Stratford, Easton, Brookfield and Trumbull as its service area.

A recent customer said the technician knew exactly where to dig and left the property with minimal disturbance beyond where the tank covers were. A recent customer with a clogged septic filter said Bill Jr came out in an emergency. In a 2026 review, a customer said Bill came out to inspect an issue and had the septic pumped the next day.

A 2024 customer described a backup that flooded three rooms. That 2024 customer said the man the company sent dug a hole, ran a hose into the tank, then exposed the inlet baffle and found a blob partially blocking it, and charged less than the two earlier companies. A 2024 reviewer said Bill came out, pumped the tank and looked for a lost gold earring, which they found in the bottom of the tank. A 2024 customer said the company replaced a cottage septic tank quickly.

A 2025 seller said the company inspected the home on behalf of the buyer and reported that the septic tank needed to be replaced, while five other septic experts said nothing was wrong with it. A 2023 reviewer said the owner's pre-sale inspection found the septic in fine shape, a buyer's inspection by another company then failed the dry well, and a second owner of the company agreed it needed replacing, charged another $350 and provided no report. A 2024 customer said the technician's truck was full partway through pumping and the company charged a second time to finish. A 2025 customer said no one showed up on the day of an inspection despite many phone calls. A 2022 customer said the company pumped out just one side of the tank and the clogged pipes cost $650 to fix.

**Strengths:**
- A thorough inspection — a recent first-time buyer said the entire system was inspected
- An emergency filter call — a recent customer said Bill Jr came out
- A baffle clog found — a 2024 customer said the worker located the blockage

**Concerns:**
- A disputed sale inspection — a 2025 seller said five experts found no tank problem
- A double pumping charge — a 2024 customer was billed twice for one pump-out
- A missed inspection — a 2025 customer said no one showed despite calls
