I received the estimate from Bart Schultz Septic Services out of St. Clair County. He was gracious enough to listen to our story, waived his service call fees, and waived our soil scientist report and findings, as he stated he would pay for them himself, and he did! “I am a caregiver to my 100 percent disabled husband (retired military and 100-percent service-connected).
