New and replacement septic systems

A septic system is one of the biggest investments under your yard. We handle installation with the same care we bring to every pump-out: clear communication, careful crews and a clean site when the work is done.

When you need a new system

  • Building a new home on a lot without sewer
  • Replacing a failed or undersized system
  • Replacing a deteriorated tank
  • Upgrades required as part of a property sale or permit

Permits come first

Septic installations in Michigan are permitted through the county health department, which sets the requirements for the system based on the site and soils. The permit process is the first step on any install, so call early in your project and we can talk through what to expect.

How an install goes

Once the system design and permit are in place, the work is excavation, setting the tank, running the lines, building the drain field and backfilling to grade. Our crews keep the site as tidy as possible and walk you through how to care for the new system.

Fast, friendly, and transparent. They walked me through the process, showed me the tank levels, and stuck to the estimate.

Highly recommend for routine pumping — on time, respectful, and they cleaned up after the job. Pricing was fair and straightforward.
