Contact Total Turf and Dirt for a Professional Excavation Contractor and Septic System Installation Company to Install Your Septic System!

Having a way to deal with all the wastewater your house produces is important. If you don't live where you can connect with the local sewerage district, you need to have a septic tank. While this system is often just referred to as a tank, it is more than that. The system includes the tank and a drain field that the tank empties into. You need to have a lot of work done in your yard to get it ready for the system installation. The main part of your preparation includes hiring a company that specializes in both excavation services and septic installation. Total Turf and Dirt in Central, Ohio, should be the call you make!

Excavation

The first part of installing your new septic system is to get the tank put in place. The excavation company that you hire will dig a hole that is bigger than the tank. That allows for the necessary extra room to work on the installation. Before the tank goes in, the installers will level the hole so that the tank will sit flat. It needs to be level, or it won't drain properly.

Grading

The excavating company will need to grade your yard before they can install the drain field, having your yard properly graded makes sure that everything drains properly. The tank should drain into the field, not pool up anywhere in your yard, it should also drain away from your house. No one wants to have their septic system draining into their basement.

Trenching

The excavation company you choose to work with will also need to do some trenching to get everything ready. This is to install the leach field; the field consists of pipes that run from your tank to the field. The pipes are placed in trenches with gravel, the gravel lets the water from your tank drain into the ground. The trenches will need to be deep enough for the pipes to be buried deep enough to keep them safe from anything that might happen to them.

When you need a new septic system installed, you want a professional to do all the excavation work. Hiring an excavation company like Total Turf and Dirt will ensure that everything is dug, leveled, and graded correctly so that your septic system will work for years to come.
