Septic Installation
Compare septic companies that show septic installation among their service details.
Septic installation covers putting in a brand-new system, replacing a failed one, or upsizing a system as part of a home addition. It's a bigger, more regulated job than pumping or routine service: it typically requires a soil evaluation, a county or state permit, and a design suited to the site's soil and water table before any digging starts.
Not every company that pumps and services tanks also installs new systems; installation crews need excavation equipment and permitting experience that a pumping-only outfit may not carry. Our guide to septic system types covers what design options exist, and our installation cost guide gives a general sense of what a new system runs.
See our state-by-state septic rules reference for what we've been able to confirm about permitting requirements, and always get the permit and design approved by your local health or environmental department before installation begins.
