Had a saturated drain field that the previous owner clearly ignored for years. Got 3 quotes and Torque was not the cheapest but they actually came out, looked at the system, and explained what they would do. Two guys, three days of work, and the yard looks better than before they got here. No surprises on the final bill. Will use them again.
SERVICE
Septic Repair done right.
Diagnose first. Repair what makes sense. Replace what does not.

ABOUT THIS SERVICE
Septic Repair in Southwest Florida.
Septic repair covers the middle ground between routine pumping and full system replacement. Cracked baffles, settled risers, broken inlet lines, damaged distribution boxes, root intrusion. These are problems that should not require ripping out the whole system if caught early.
Torque diagnoses before we quote. Some problems are genuine repair candidates. Others are signals of deeper failure that no patch will fix. We tell you which is which, and we do not sell a repair when the right answer is replacement.
WHAT IS INCLUDED
Scope of work.
- Diagnostic site visit to identify the actual failure point.
- Baffle replacement, riser repair, distribution box repair or replacement.
- Inlet and outlet line repair, root removal, joint and seal repair.
- Tank lid replacement and structural repair where appropriate.
- Camera inspection of lines as needed.
- Written report on what was found, what was fixed, and what to watch for.
Timeline
Most repairs are 1 working day on site. Scheduling is typically within 3 to 7 days for non-emergency, same day or next day for active backups.
Warranty
Written workmanship warranty on every repair. We document the work with photos and a condition note.
Permits
Most repairs do not require a county permit. Major component replacement (drain field, tank) does, and we will tell you up front if a permit is needed.

Six signs you should call about septic repair.
Recent slow-drain or backup symptoms after a normal pump.

Our septic alarm started going off at 10pm on a Saturday in McGregor. Called and a real person picked up. Tech was at the house just after midnight, found the issue with the pump, had it fixed by morning. Wife and I were impressed they didn't try to upsell us anything we didn't need. Honest work.
We needed a septic inspection for the sale of my mother's house in Park Shore on a tight timeline. Torque scheduled us the next day, came out, did the inspection, and emailed me a clean PDF report I could send to the title company that afternoon. Realtor was happy. Title company was happy. Closing on schedule.
I manage four restaurants from Bonita Springs up to Sarasota and we have used Torque for grease trap service across all of them for over a year now. Show up when they say, never miss a quarterly. Paperwork for health inspectors is always tidy and emailed same day. This is what reliable service looks like.
Routine septic pumping for our place off Daniels. Got quoted half of what a competitor wanted and the guy who did the pumping took the time to show me where the lid was and what the levels looked like. Gave me a written summary at the end. Nothing fancy, just professional and fairly priced.
Bought a place on Marco and the inspection flagged a tank that was at the end of its life. Torque came out, looked at it, gave us a realistic timeline, pulled the Collier County permit, and replaced the tank with minimal disruption to the landscaping. Excellent communication start to finish.
