  They came out to do an inspection on our well and septic and empty the septic on a house we were looking to buy. He was very informative and answered all my questions as it was my first time living on a well and septic. I would highly recommend Kardell!

  I recently moved on to a property South of town that has well and septic. Leading up to the move, I had to crash course in everything that deals with well, septic, and everything between. On the umm...back end, I couldn't wait to inspect my tank. I'm a weirdo what can I say?

I've already built a few good relationships in town with companies that I'll use for the Long haul and Kardell Septic is one of them.

Luke was a cool, nice, down-to-earth dude who took time out of his evening to answer all of my questions. What's more is he did it on the handshake deal that in the future when I needed pumps he was my guy. "In the future", bc instead of charging me for a pump that, even if I thought I wanted, I didn't need, he just told me that it wouldn't need it for a good bit.

That's the sort of people I was trying find, and I have.

God bless.
