Hear From Our Clients
No more sewage backups during heavy rains. No more wondering if that smell means trouble brewing underground. No more panic calls when guests are coming over and your toilets won’t flush properly.
You get a cesspool system that handles everything your household throws at it. Your drains flow smoothly. Your yard stays dry and odor-free. Your property value stays protected.
When something does go wrong, you have a local company that actually answers the phone and shows up when we say we will. Because in Lindenhurst, cesspool problems don’t wait for convenient times.
We’ve been fixing cesspool problems in Lindenhurst since 1998. We know how the sandy soil and high water table here affect your system differently than other areas. We’ve seen what Hurricane Sandy did to local systems, and we understand the flooding challenges you face.
Over 325 five-star reviews don’t happen by accident. They happen because we show up prepared, diagnose the real problem quickly, and fix it right the first time. We’re Suffolk County licensed, fully insured, and we’ve earned our Home Advisor Elite status by consistently delivering what we promise.
When other companies can’t figure out your recurring backup problem, that’s when people call us. We’re the ones who actually solve it.
First, we actually listen to what’s been happening with your system. We inspect everything – not just the obvious stuff. We use cameras when needed to see exactly what’s going on underground.
Then we tell you what’s really wrong. Not what might be wrong, or what could eventually become a problem. What’s actually causing your current issue and what it’ll take to fix it properly.
We start with the most affordable solution that’ll actually work. Sometimes that’s a simple repair. Sometimes it’s more involved. But you’ll know exactly what you’re paying for before we start, and you won’t get hit with surprise charges halfway through the job.

We handle everything from simple pipe repairs to complete structural rebuilds. Collapsed cesspools, broken covers, failed baffles, damaged distribution boxes – we’ve fixed them all in Lindenhurst’s challenging conditions.
Our trucks carry the equipment we need for most repairs, so we’re not making multiple trips or charging you extra because we showed up unprepared. We understand Long Island’s clay soil issues and how they affect drainage around your property.
We also know the local regulations. Suffolk County has specific requirements for cesspool repairs, and we handle all the permit work and inspections. You don’t have to figure out the bureaucracy – we take care of that part so you can focus on getting your system working again.
If you’re dealing with slow drains, sewage odors, or wet spots in your yard, it could be either. But here’s the difference: pumping problems usually affect the whole house gradually. Repair issues tend to be more sudden or localized.
When one toilet backs up but others work fine, that’s usually a line problem. When your whole system suddenly stops working after years of normal operation, you might have structural damage. If you’re getting sewage smells even after recent pumping, something’s probably broken.
We’ll diagnose the real issue during our inspection. Sometimes what looks like a major repair is actually just a pumping problem, and sometimes recurring “pumping” issues are actually repair problems that keep getting band-aided instead of fixed properly.
Lindenhurst’s soil conditions create unique challenges. The sandy soil drains quickly, but the high water table means your cesspool deals with more groundwater pressure than systems in other areas. Over time, this can cause settling or shifting that cracks the walls.
Heavy rains and flooding – like we saw with Hurricane Sandy – put extra stress on older systems. Tree roots are another major culprit, especially if you have mature landscaping. They’ll find even tiny cracks and expand them into major structural problems.
Age is the biggest factor though. Most cesspools in this area were built 20-40 years ago, and concrete degrades over time. The good news is that many structural problems can be repaired without full replacement if you catch them early enough.
Simple repairs like fixing a broken pipe or replacing a damaged cover usually run a few hundred dollars. More complex structural repairs can range from $1,000 to $3,000, depending on what’s involved and how accessible your system is.
The wide range depends on the specific problem. Repairing a cracked baffle is straightforward. Rebuilding a collapsed section requires excavation and more materials. We always start with the least expensive solution that’ll actually solve your problem.
What’s expensive is ignoring repair issues until they become replacement issues. A full cesspool replacement can cost $8,000-15,000 or more. That’s why we recommend addressing problems when they’re still repairable rather than waiting until your system completely fails.
Yes, we work year-round, but winter repairs can be more challenging. Frozen ground makes excavation harder, and some materials don’t work properly in freezing temperatures. But emergency repairs can’t wait for spring.
We carry equipment for cold-weather work, and we know which repair methods work best in different conditions. Sometimes we’ll do a temporary fix to get you through winter and schedule the permanent repair for warmer weather.
The key is not waiting until you have an emergency. If you’re noticing problems in fall, it’s better to address them before winter hits. Frozen pipes and backed-up systems are much harder to deal with when it’s 20 degrees outside and your yard is covered in snow.
Yes, we take care of all the permit requirements. Suffolk County has specific regulations for cesspool repairs, and different types of work require different permits. We know what’s required and how to get approvals quickly.
Most simple repairs don’t need permits, but structural work usually does. We’ll tell you upfront what permits are needed and handle the applications. We also coordinate with inspectors when required – you don’t have to take time off work to deal with county officials.
We’ve been doing this in Suffolk County for over 25 years, so we know the local requirements and have working relationships with the permitting departments. That means faster approvals and fewer delays on your repair project.
We provide 24/7 emergency service and typically respond within a few hours, often sooner. When you have sewage backing up into your house, every minute counts. We understand that and prioritize emergency calls.
Our trucks are equipped for most common emergency repairs, so we can often fix the immediate problem on the first visit. Even if the permanent solution requires ordering parts or getting permits, we’ll get your system functional again quickly.
We’ve been the emergency backup for other companies’ customers who couldn’t get service. That’s because we actually answer our phones and show up when we say we will. When you’re dealing with a cesspool emergency in Lindenhurst, you need someone reliable – not someone who might call you back tomorrow.
