We lined up Cosby to install a holding tank in Wainfleet back in May. After securing the permit, matt was lined up to complete the work.

Outstanding service! Cosby's showed up as scheduled, and despite a recent heavy snowfall from the night before, they got right to work. The septic lids were dug up, the septic pumped and risers installed all in a timely manner at a very reasonable cost. Definitely recommend them and will use them again.
