we called to set up a appt to get our septic pumped , they asked all the questions and said they would call back to set up a yime on the day we wanted , the next day they called and left a message to call back to set up the time
Well when he called back they said they had no paperwork on us , and did not even set up a appt so we just called someone we could rely on , if you want the job done DONT CALL RIVER CITY

Have used this company 3 times now. Always very friendly guys and do a great job. Give helpful tips on how to prevent and how often we should do our catch bassinens. Will definitely continue to use them and recommend as well.

River City Environmental did a fantastic job decommissioning my septic tank to DEQ standards and hooking me up to the county sewer line at my place in Welches. Their bid was very competitive, and the project manager communicated very effectively along every step in the process. The team that they sent out was fantastic! Great people who took time to explain things and answer all my questions. They had to navigate their heavy equipment through some tight spaces, and ended up pulling some pretty big boulders out during the job. They even took the time to place the boulders at spots on the property that I asked them to. Theron and Sean were great. I didn't get to meet the third member of the team but I bet he was great too. I highly recommend this professional organization.

Pipe replacement from house to street. Long confusing process that took months. Terrible project management, poor communication and put off numerous times. Phone calls not returned. ""We'll be there next week"" heard too many times. The job got done but only after months of too much frustration. Strongly recommend going elsewhere for this work.

Horrible front office communication!! I called to set up an appointment, I think I spoke to a young lady by the name of Kendall. They didn't have any openings until next week, which was fine, I scheduled a 10am window. Next week comes around, nothing yet. I call and she said I'd be in touch with their plumbing guy Jessie in the next few days, apparently they only have one plumbing guy. Few days pass and still nothing. I call the office again and ask and she said she will have Jessie give me a call.
A few days pass and I get a call at 7:50am from Jessie saying he's 15 minutes away from our business. I told him I requested a 10am slot, and couldn't make it to my business in such a short amount of time. Had to reschedule again after all that back and fourth!!

Another week goes by and Jessie finally comes. Jessie, a very nice guy, said he'd needed to order parts and get back to me on prices. The problem was, he was leaving for vacation for a week.....Another week goes by I text Jessie and all he said was the girls were trying to fit me in the schedule. ANOTHER week goes by and I text Jessie, and get no reply.

I have officially given up on this company. Can't rate their work since NO ONE EVER CAME!! But their communication within the company is absolutely horrendous!!

Great experience finding them on Yelp and then working with the tack and a handyman to find the best solution for the job. There is a little bit of rescheduling when it came down to the day to do the repairs, but the communication around this was good. The job was done with excellent quality and slightly below the quoted price.

We ordered water to have a vinyl pool filled by this company. On June 17th the Salem office qouted us $297. We scheduled a date for the delivery that was to come by noon on our scheduled date. Missed half a day at work and a kids baseball game, because the did not arrive until 6pm. We were then charged by the company $564 twice for a total of $1128 today for the delievery that happened 2 weeks ago that was suppose to be $297. Horrible experience and now my checking account is empty!

I had a great experience working with River City and have actually referred several of my neighbors and friends to them as well. We agree that they are really competitive for septic pumping pricing. I believe I saved $100 over what others were charging. If you call around you will see for yourself.

I wish I could give them zero stars. They didn't fix the problem and then lied about it. They are also very unprofessional. I could hear the workers cussing from inside my house. We will not be using them again.

Worse plumbing repair service I have ever encountered. Five (5) different trips, each costing too much and not resolving the issue. Costs on costs for failed solutions. Final trip, at more cost, supposedly fixed the issue of plugged sewer line, but still more roots left. Would not recommend them to my worst enemy. The workers seemed o.k. and equipment was up to date, but results for the numerous trips were not effective and very expensive.
