Septic Systems

Installation, Maintenance and Repair

Septic systems are the perfect option for anyone looking to be eco-friendly as well as being in control of their own waste management. At Schoon Excavating & Farm Drainage Inc., we specialize in new system installs, maintenance, and repair/replacement if needed, at the most affordable cost possible.

Septic Tank Installation

At Schoon Excavating & Farm Drainage Inc., we believe that whether you need a new septic system installation, maintenance, or repair/replacement of an existing system, that should not cost you a lot of time or money. Providing our local clients with affordable excavation services is something we’ve been doing for years, and plan to keep doing. So, next time you’re looking for local excavating contractors who can get the job done right, quickly, without sacrificing quality, pick up the phone and call Schoon Excavating & Farm Drainage Inc.

EVERY STEP OF THE WAY

From start to finish, we pride ourselves on being able to provide full-service excavation no matter what the project. That means, we’ll assist in the assessment and design, installation, and clean-up on every project. Armed with years of experience and the most cutting-edge machinery, we’re capable of tackling any job, large or small.

Assessment

Preparing the site is a crucial step when it comes to septic tank installation. We’ll walk through your property to locate the best spot for the tank. Ideally this spot will have a lot of space for the drain field, and it will be lower than your home for proper drainage.

Installation

Installation will start by digging the hole your tank will fit into. We’ll also work setting up piping systems to promote proper waste drainage. Additional drainage ditches will be dug after. During this process we will act carefully so as not to disturb any other part of your property.

Earthmoving

As you can imagine there will be a good deal of earth left over after the installation. At Schoon Excavating & Farm Drainage Inc., we’re prepared for anything! We’ll haul everything away in our earthmoving truck so that you don’t have to deal with the mess. Don’t put your faith in excavation companies that don’t promise this—they’re likely to leave you with a big pile of dirt to handle on your own.

Waste Management Cost

Like with anything, we understand our clients’ interest in the cost of septic tank installation. To determine a more accurate cost, we like to meet on-site to provide you with a free no-obligation estimate. However, depending on the size of your home, family, and orientation of your property you could be looking at spending between $1,500 and $4,000, or more.  At Schoon Excavating & Farm Drainage Inc., we believe in this investment, as it will save you in the long-run!

Septic Tank Pumping

Septic tanks require regular pumping for moderate use and more frequent maintenance for larger homes or buildings with higher usage rates. The qualified specialists at Schoon Excavating & Farm Drainage Inc. provide efficient and reliable tank pumping services that keep your system running smoothly. It is recommended to have your tank pumped every 3-5 years to keep it working properly.

 

IS THE WASTE IN YOUR
SEPTIC TANK OVER THE LIMIT?

The average waste tank on a typical septic system can hold approximately 400 to 500 gallons. Septic tanks require regular annual inspection and pumping for moderate use and more frequent maintenance for larger homes or buildings with higher usage rates. The qualified specialists at Schoon Excavating & Farm Drainage Inc. provide efficient and reliable tank pumping services that keep your system running smoothly.

When should your septic tank be pumped?

Most malfunctions are due to lack of pumping that clears waste. Don’t wait for a small problem to get bigger and turn into an expensive major repair or complete system breakdown. Sign up for our convenient maintenance program to ensure your septic tank is pumped regularly. Signs that your septic tank needs pumping include:
