Our Septic Installation Process
Our septic system installation process always starts with a careful inspection of your property. Conventional gravity-style systems work best for homes that have well-draining soil.
Mound septic system design is ideal for properties with high groundwater and shallow bedrock. We’ll walk you through the different types that we think are a good fit for your property. Explaining the pros and cons of each setup guides you in making the best choice.
- Conventional gravity septic system
- Pressure distribution septic system
- Aerobic treatment septic system
- Mound septic system design
- Recirculating sand filter system
Site Evaluation & Design
As part of the site evaluation process, we always test the soil, check groundwater levels and review drainage patterns. Your property’s soil type and slope both impact the design. Local building codes, like minimum setback requirements or tank size regulations, will also influence the configuration.
- Soil type and drainage capacity
- Property size and layout
- Local building codes and regulations
- Household water usage needs
- Accessibility for maintenance and pumping

Our septic services cover everything you need for installing a new septic system. We’ll always alert you ahead of time before we do any excavating. You won’t have to fret about unexpected disruptions or dealing with last-minute hassles.
- Property with rocky ground
- Yard with steep slopes
- Limited space for equipment

FAQs
Have questions about septic services in Tennessee? Our team has helpful answers that bring clarity to septic issues.
How long does septic tank install take?
Most new septic tanks take two to five days to install. Projects that take the longest are those that require tree root removal, rock excavation or advanced system design.
Your property’s soil conditions and layout may add to the timeline if they require grading or additional drainage work. Weather delays can also stretch projects by creating muddy job sites and limiting access for heavy equipment.
What size septic tank do I need for my home?
The best size tank to install depends on your household size and water usage habits. Most homes need a system with a 1,000- to 1,500-gallon capacity. If you live in a larger home or have frequent guests, you may need an even bigger tank. Our expert site evaluation lets us precisely calculate the requirements, so you always get a new septic tank that fully meets your needs.
How often should a septic tank be pumped or inspected?
Most septic tanks need professional pumping every three to five years plus yearly inspections. We’ll spot and fix any leaks or clogs, so the whole system performs reliably at all times.
If you live in a home with a large family or heavy water usage, you may need more frequent pumping. The buildup and overflow that can occur can cause costly damage if you don’t have the tank pumped regularly.
What permits are required for septic tank installation?
You’ll likely need a permit from the county health department to use our septic services for a new installation. Local codes may also necessitate site evaluations and soil tests, depending on property size and groundwater levels.
Please keep in mind that each county has its own regulations and rules. We know all about these codes, so we can make sure your new system meets requirements and stays in compliance.
