Septic Systems in Sanford, ME

A septic system is the most invisible work we do, and the least forgiving of shortcuts. Bedding a tank wrong or building a leach field on badly prepared ground shows up years later as a soggy lawn and a five-figure repair.

What's included

What we handle

  • New septic system installation and full system replacement
  • Tank excavation, setting, and backfill
  • Leach field and distribution line construction
  • Installation to the HHE-200 design your licensed site evaluator provides
  • Drainage grading over and around the finished system

Why it matters

The part you can't see

Maine splits septic work three ways, and that protects you. A licensed site evaluator, a private professional you hire, examines your soil with test pits and produces the system design on an HHE-200 form. The local plumbing inspector issues the permit for it. Then we do our part: build that design in the ground exactly as drawn, with clean stone, proper bedding, and compaction where it belongs and never where it doesn't.

Built as designed

We install to the plan your site evaluator produces, and we don't improvise the parts you'll never see.

Clean excavation

Tank holes and field beds cut to grade, not gouged and refilled.

Lawn put back right

Any damage to the lawn gets taken care of. You shouldn't be able to tell heavy equipment was there.
