  We were referred to Zinks by our real estate office when we bought our 155-year-old former chapel turned family home in the Marbletown area of Newark, NY. They had already done an inspection for the previous potential buyers, and for a small fee they transferred that report to us so they didn’t have to come back out. From our very first call, they were friendly, professional, and patient with all our first-time-septic-owner questions. They even referred us to an engineer to design a brand-new leach field, since our property didn’t have one at all. Yeah, the old septic was not properly leached. YIKES! Once those plans were finalized, Zinks was able to schedule us. It only took a few days to complete the job, but they worked efficiently and were very respectful of our property. They kept the site tidy and even took the time to explain the dos and don’ts of caring for a septic system. We really appreciated this since septic is all new to us. Their communication was clear, their pricing was straightforward, and there were no surprise costs along the way. With rehabbing an old home, it is really nice not to have surprise costs. When everything was finished, they made sure we understood how the system works and when to schedule maintenance. Overall, Zinks Septic Solutions made what could’ve been a stressful project surprisingly smooth. They were professional, honest, and genuinely kind people to work with. We’d absolutely recommend them to anyone needing septic work, inspections, or installations. I also want to mention that we had other bids on this job and not only did Zinks do such a great job, their cost was significantly lower than other bids. By thousands!! These 5 stars are well deserved!

  I had Zinks come out a couple times in the last week. I couldn't be more appreciative for everything Barry & Zinks did to help me solve and navigate my problems. There were multiple times I called just to get advice on what to do or who to call next. And everytime they were so knowledgeable and willing to help. They don't pump, but they do communicate amazingly well with "J.S. Blazey" since I really wanted to use Zinks I figured I'd try out Blazey. I needed it pumped regardless for troubleshooting, and once again. Another great professional. I'll stay on the review of Zinks, but anyone needing a pump, Blazey was the best guy I've ever used and will have my buisness going forward. Barry came out later in the day, on a day that he had already told me prior he was booked solid and couldn't make it. just to help me. Then came back the next morning on a weekend day that im pretty sure he doesn't work ( or at least prefers not to if it can be helped) and got me back up and running. Oh the felief he brought us. Barry was extremely knowledgeable, transparent and honest. I spent a lot of time out there with him trying to understand my system, what was wrong and how things worke. Not once did I feel like a bother to him. Then in the end he gave me a price that was beyond fair to the work he did for me. I could talk much longer on how thankful I am to everyone. But I'll leave it at this, if you need a new septic system or a truly professional troubleshooting /assessment done on your septic system. Call Zinks. Ty Barry.

  Zinks Septic Solutions were an absolute pleasure to work with. We needed a new leach field placed and they made it as painless and simple as possible. They even took down a small tree that was blocking the site of the new field. This all occurred right when we were expecting our second child money was a little tight at the time - Zinks worked with us on a payment plan over 6 months. They’re flexibility was unbelievable and super appreciated.

  I called Barry because of a septic issue. He responded right away providing a solution much better than the orginial installation from another company. I would highly recommend Zinks!

  When I moved in my new house I different contractor stated that repairs were needed to the septic lid and my sump pump. . Because of other good reviews I called Zinks and Barry came right out. He said the issues identified were not a major concern and suggested just leaving things as they are unless problems arise. Though I felt bad he came out for nothing, it’s nice to know that if it doesn’t need to be fixed, he is not going to try to sell it anyway. I’ll definitely call if any problems come up in the future!
