★★★★★

They answered on the second ring, came out the next morning, and had the tank pumped in under an hour. Yard looked like they'd never been there.

Honest people. Told me my drain field had years left when another company quoted me a full replacement. That kind of honesty earns a customer for life.

★★★★★

Our closing depended on a septic inspection and they turned the report around fast. Our agent now recommends them to every buyer on a septic system.

They installed our new system and explained every step before they started. No surprises on the bill — it matched the quote to the dollar.

Sewage backing up on a Saturday is nobody's idea of a good weekend. Lentz picked up, talked me through it, and got us flowing again. Fair price, zero drama.

Our story

Three Generations Under Iredell County Soil

Lentz Septic Tank Service started in the 1960s with one truck, one family, and a simple rule: treat every yard like it's your own. Sixty-plus years later the trucks are newer, but the rule hasn't changed — and neither has the family name on the door.

Today, homeowners from Statesville to the Charlotte metro call Lentz for the same reason their parents did: when we say we'll be there, we show up; when we quote a price, we stand behind it; and when a system can be repaired instead of replaced, we'll tell you so.
