Our Septic Installation Process

Step 1: Soil Testing

Soil testing gives us the information needed to design and properly size your system.

• We schedule a site visit with your local Health Department.
• Deep test holes (6–10 feet) are dug with an excavator so a registered sanitarian can read and sample the soils.
• A percolation test is performed to measure how quickly the soil absorbs water.
• Results are documented and placed in the public file for your property.

Already have soil testing completed? You can send us your results, and we’ll provide you with a quote based on that information.

Step 2: Design

With soil test results, site topography, lot size, and equipment access in mind, we begin the design process.

• We provide a detailed quote after soil testing is complete.
• Our team has the knowledge and licensing to design septic systems in-house and submit directly for approval.
• For projects that require it, we also collaborate seamlessly with local engineers to ensure compliance and the best possible outcome.
• We work with you to determine the best system type, layout, and location, balancing function, performance, and cost.

The design is then submitted to the Health Department for review and approval before installation begins.

Step 3: Installation

Installing a septic system involves significant excavation and coordination. We make the process as smooth as possible:

• Before excavation, we meet with you to review the scope of work and note any landscaping, walkways, or walls to protect or replace.
• We coordinate with the Health Department for required inspections and with our trusted vendors to ensure the timely delivery of high-quality products.
• Once the system is installed and inspected, we carefully backfill, regrade, rake, seed, and apply straw to stabilize the area and promote regrowth.
• Final documentation, including the as-built diagram and user information, is submitted to the Health Department and provided to you for your records.
