    Stand up company! They get the job done quickly and efficiently, and are willing to answer any and all questions. There was a huge issue with the house I was closing on and they were there the next day to fix it so we could close on time. They also waited patiently for payment while details were worked out in closing.

    Had a slow kitchen drain because of my older home having a single vent stack. They augered it and now it's running better than ever. Great price, quick & clean service. Will use again if I have any issues.

    Used this company when.I had some water back up in my basement. Roto-Rooter attempted to overcharge me without even diagnosing the issue. Called this company to get a 2nd opinion, they were honest, trustworthy, and cost efficient. I will only use them from now on and will recommend them to anyone in need of services!!

    We had a clog in our branch line sewer. The Down's crew came out and fixed our problem in a timely manner. The workers were knowledgeable, professional, and considerate. Our cost was very reasonable -- lower than we anticipated. Down's was recommended on a neighborhood website we use.They have our business from now on. Thanks, Down's!

    The entire crew was professional and a pleasure to work with! Jake made the process less stressful on me since this was all new to me. Installation & cleanup went well & professionally. Everything went smoothly.
    Thank you to the entire team!

    One of the Downs boys should call me. We have been in Ward 8 Cuyahoga Falls over 75 years and now they are too busy to service us. Good luck with the business model that doesn't take customers. DAF

    Happened to be home for the day, called on the spur of the moment and was guaranteed same day service. Many thanks to Tina for arranging that and to Kevin for prompt and professional service. We have been using Downs for over 30 years and have ALWAYS appreciated the quality and professionalism we have been provided. This is a great example of a friendly, knowledgable, family business that takes pride in their work.

    I have been having septic problems. I called and asked to please send someone out who knew the area and was experienced. I gave them all the information about the property. They showed up for five minutes then said there was nothing they could do. They informed me that I needed to called the water department of Portage county because they do not know the rules of Portage county because they do not service out there. I paid the service fee because I was grateful for the information. However the information led nowhere and I am back at square one and out $95 for a five min visit for them to tell me what I already told them about the problem. When I called to complain they told me they would call back. They did but I missed the call and they left no message. Then I called and they didn’t answer the phone. I finally receive a callback just for them to tell me they service Portage county with some of their services but not all. This information should have been told to me in the beginning when I explained the situation. Terrible company would not use again.

    I can’t say enough about Down’s Septic and Drain. Dustin and Zach came out and helped figure out what happened. This is the 3rd time we have used them in the last year and a half. They give exceptional customer service. I tell everyone I know to call them if they need help.

    Jake and Dustin were amazing to work with. They saved us THOUSANDS when we were told we needed a new system. They came out and proved to us the working condition of our system and even were able to identify the type of system while others always told us unknown due to age. We are so thankful for them and will always use Down's Septic. Thank you!

    Called and got a same day appointment to pump out my septic system. Eric the service guy was fantastic. I just bought the house this year and did not know anything about septic. Eric took his time and answered all my questions. Will be using them again.

    We've had Downs Drain Cleaning Services clean our septic tanks now for over 20 years! They come out every two years and do a thorough job for our house and many other neighbors on our street. They are a strong family run business that takes pride in their work. They are both professional and friendly. I would highly recommend them!

    Called Downs to get my septic tank pumped out. Total was $550. Nothing additional, just pumped one tank. Guy was nice enough, but the price is twice what others in the area are charging. My leach field is backing up and when I had another company come service it, they asked when I last had it pumped. Told them how much and they laughed and said they are currently charging $275-300. Call someone else.

    Thank you for all you do for me. Every time I have issues with with my septic system, you guys are there for me!

    You don't over charge, the guys that come out, are some of the nicest people I have worked with!!

    I though that way about them when they helped me get my system up to code. After yesterday I have nothing but good things to say about your company and the people that work there!!
    Even the lady that answers the phone she is kind when she assures the phone. She explains things if she can't get one of the guys, takes your name and number WITH OUT an attitude, and has them guys call back in a very timely manner.

    Very happy to have you all to call on for all my pluming issues!!

    Back in May we scheduled them to come out and look at a yard drain that was clogged. On the day they were to come out they said they would be there between Noon and 4:00. After waiting on them they called at 4:30 to say they would be unable to make it. I called back to reschedule and they came out on June 8. After trying to clear the drain, the workers informed us that the drain was going to need to be replaced. They took some measurements and told us the owner would get back with us regarding a price to complete the work. After waiting a couple of weeks, I called back to check on it. The gentleman that answered the phone said he would “call me right back”. It is now July 9 and we have not heard from them. Obviously they don’t need or want the business. Customer service is definitely not a priority with them.

    It's been a rainy year so far and we were concerned about blockage or potential collapse of the foundation drains etc. They came to our home and within 30 minutes did a video inspection of the drains and downspout drains to confirm that there were no issues with the drainage system.
    Professional, courteous and nice guys.
    We highly recommend them.

    We’ve been using down septic and drain for 7+ years now. They always do a really efficient job. They have knowledgeable employees. They charge a fair price. They’ve always done a great job for us.

    Had a backed up storm drain, and they came out the next day and jetted it for me in about 10 minutes. Very pleasant guys to work with! Extremely happy with the responsiveness and professionalism. You have my future business, and I'll recommend you to my friends.

    Called Down Septic in the early spring, they came out on a very snowy day and made the professional decision to not back down our steep icy driveway. Called them back in June, we were scheduled quickly and the truck showed up a little early on the day scheduled. Ted did the service, he was very nice and took time to explain what he was seeing and what he was doing. He even took a minute to look at a concern I had with our septic mound, which was not part of the original call, and recommend a course of action. He took the time to understand our water usage rate and recommend a follow-up timeline, and showed me exactly how to monitor my system monthly in the interim. Extremely happy with the service I received, will be calling them again for all future septic services.
