What is a Septic Tank?
Septic tanks are underground wastewater treatment systems that are used in rural and suburban areas which aren't connected to a municipal sewer system.
Septic tanks are used to treat and dispose of household waste water. Wastewater is the water that goes down the drains in your house. It includes water from the toilet, sink, shower, and dishwasher.
Septic tanks come in single and multi-family units, as well as commercial setups. A septic tank for a home usually holds between 1,000 and 2,000 gallons of wastewater. A large septic tank might hold up to 5,000 gallons or more!
A septic tank is designed to hold waste long enough for solids to settle at the bottom and oil and grease to float.
The wastewater then flows out of the tank into a drainfield or leach field. This is a
system of trenches or pipes that distribute the wastewater over an area of soil where it can soak in and be treated by bacteria.

Septic System Excavation
As septic contractors, we offer diverse wastewater disposal systems. The common septic tank, for homes without municipal sewer connections, separates solids and grease. Effluent flows into a leach field, absorbed by the soil. In challenging areas with high water tables or shallow bedrock, an elevated sand mound replaces soil excavation.
Wastewater purification occurs through a biofilm in perforated drain tiles, slowing and purifying water before returning it to the water table. Our expertise ensures effective and environmentally conscious septic installations tailored to unique needs.
