Stop in for a cup of coffee

Septic guy came out and dug around the 3 risers, down about 18 inches I guess and sealed the joints. Sent the first bill over $1100 and still needs pumped at a per gallon price, damnit!
Thats insanity. Per gallon? Our local haulers charge a flat rate, 100 gallons or 1000. I get house and office tanks pumped for $100. Plus $20 tip. Never know when you need an emergency pumpout.
1100 to seal the risers? Wow, i’m in the wrong business. Hope that fixes it.
