How the scores work

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown. Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated the business, compared with other Austin septic services. Confidence weighs the rating by volume, so a 5.0 from several hundred reviews carries more weight than a 5.0 from about a hundred. Recency reflects how recently customers still leave reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.
