I'm writing this review to share my experience with Advanced septic and to warn people about terralifting.
I noticed some signs about a year and a half ago that my septic system was failing. Bad smells and pooling water. I called 2 different companies out to take a look. One recommended complete replacement. The other (advanced septic) recommended terralifting. They explained the process and also mentioned a 2 year warranty. So what did I have to lose in at least trying right? Well, the answer to that question was about $4000 dollars.
Here I am, a year and a half later, with a still failing septic system that needs to be replaced. Oh but the warranty? Yeah advanced septic will only reimburse $1800 of that $4000 and only if I go through their septic designer and them for the installation of that septic system. Which I found advanced septic to be significantly higher than other companies and prefer now to not go through them.
I've spoken with 4 different septic designers/engineers who have all told me that terralifting is just a bandaid and isn't a permanent solution to a falling septic system.
Bottom line is if your septic system is failing, the only permanent solution is to replace whatever component is failing. Wether it be the tank, drain field or both.
It sucks, yes. Septic systems are anywhere from $10,000-20,000 (depending on who you go through and type of system needed).Please don't waste your time or money on terralifting like I did. Just bite the bullet and do it right the first time.

The response time from FloHawks beats 911 9 out of 10 times! We've used them for some general maintenance but for those plumbing, septic tank leaking emergencies...thank god for these folks! They respond quickly on the call and dispatch ASAP. Nothing worse than being helpless when your spouse is out of town, you're alone with kids and the flood begins...literally! Highly recommended for not only their response but quality of work and professionalism. They are our go to wet angels!
