What affects the price

The final bill for septic work depends on a few specific variables. First, the size of your tank and the total volume of waste removal play a role. We also look at the accessibility of your tank lids; if they are buried deep underground or hidden under landscaping, extra labor is required to reach them. The distance from our truck to the tank also impacts the setup time. Every property has unique plumbing needs, and exact pricing is confirmed free on the call.

About this service

The price for a new septic system typically ranges from several thousand to over ten thousand dollars depending on the project. Factors that influence this include the type of soil on your land, the size of the tank required for your household, and the difficulty of the excavation work. More complex systems, like those requiring lift pumps, will be on the higher end of the spectrum. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Summer is the season for heavy house guests and more laundry, which means more water usage. Your septic tank works harder when your home is full.
