Cape Cod Septic Services is a family-owned septic company with offices in West Yarmouth and Mashpee, providing pumping, installation, repair, Title V inspections, and drain cleaning across Cape Cod and into parts of Plymouth County. Its Better Business Bureau profile shows an A+ grade, though the business is not BBB Accredited, and reports about 11 years in business under president Christopher Maki. Many reviews praise the office staff and field technicians by name — Amy is repeatedly described as helpful and responsive on the phone, and technicians Hayden and Chris are described as knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient in the field, including for same-day emergency pump-outs. A few reviewers said the pricing compared favorably to other companies they'd also gotten quotes from. Set against that, several reviews describe unfinished or incomplete follow-through: one said the company never returned to restore the yard and reattach wires knocked down during an installation, another said a distribution box repair job was never finished despite repeated calls and emails to the owner, and a third said technicians made three separate attempts without locating the septic tank cover. A May 2026 review described a hostile technician who disputed the depth of the tank cover, and another the same month said calling the office four times went unanswered, contradicting the company's advertised round-the-clock availability. Separately, a July 2026 review described a company driver running through a four-way intersection without yielding and making an obscene gesture at other drivers. The day-to-day service experience described by most reviewers is friendly and competent, but there's a recurring pattern of complaints about incomplete jobs and unresponsiveness worth weighing.
“Hayden showed up yesterday around 11am which was earlier than the 12-3pm window that was given. I had located one tank and he quickly found the other one. He was initially concerned about the tight clearance on driveway but handled it perfectly.”
What a fabulous company! Amy was so kind and helpful. I was scheduled right away and the technician did a wonderful job. I highly recommend them.
This goes to the driver this morning who plowed through a 4 way intersection refusing to yield right away to the other 3 drivers and then giving the finger out the window to us who were beeping our horns. Clearly didn't have the basic sense to realize his advertising is all over the truck. Nice guy huh?
Top notch service. Very reasonable prices. Very knowledgeable Technician.
Called 4 times. No call back. I can be the odd 1 star but 24x7 is not accurate today.
I reached out to Cape Cod septic for water accumulating in my backyard. I have never had septic before and don’t know a lot about About It. I spoke with Amy who answered the phone, explained my problem to her and within hours I had somebody out to check it. Hayden arrived from Cape Cod septic Took a look at my problem and instantly knew what to do. Not only did Hayden fix the problem, but also educated me on my septic the components and parts to it what problems to look for having a septic system. He removed roots from a drain that were clogging my septic and the charge was extremely reasonable. Thank you, Hayden and thank you Amy. You will have all of my septic needs in the future. Don’t hesitate to reach out to them. Amazing service.
