WHAT’S INVOLVED IN THE EXCAVATION PROCESS?

Our skilled operators use the appropriate tools, including backhoes and excavators, to carefully remove soil according to the project specifications. Our goal is to provide you with reliable service and minimal disruption to your property. We ensure precise dimensions and depth for all septic components, including the tank, distribution box, and drain field trenches. We manage disrupted soil responsibly, with consideration for compaction and potential reuse. When digging, we adhere to all safety protocols and continuously monitor the site for any unforeseen issues.

  • Clear Site Markings: We’ll ensure the site is marked properly so boundaries are clearly defined before digging. Accurate marking helps prevent damage to existing utilities, structures, and landscaping.
  • Precise Soil Removal: We always dig with precision to minimize disruption to your property. Our team carefully removes soil using only the appropriate tools and techniques for correct depth and angle. We preserve soil quality and prevent unnecessary soil erosion.
  • Careful Trenching for Accuracy: When trenching, our team follows a carefully planned route to create straight, uniform lines for pipes, electrical lines, and drainage systems. We ensure all trenches are stable and free of debris for proper installation and to avoid future disruptions.
  • Adhere to All Safety Regulations: Safety is always our top priority. We adhere to all local safety regulations and guidelines, including checking for underground utilities prior to digging, securing the site with barriers, and ensuring all equipment is in good working order.

What is involved in excavation for septic system installation?

The excavation process involves digging trenches or holes to accommodate the septic tank, leach field, and associated pipes. We mark boundaries, carefully remove soil, and ensure the proper depth and slope for effective system functioning. Excavation also involves creating space for components such as distribution boxes and drain fields, and confirming the soil is suitable for proper filtration and drainage.

The depth of excavation required for a septic tank depends on the tank’s size, the type of soil, and the location of the installation. Typically, the depth ranges from 4 to 10 feet to allow enough space for the tank and its components. Precise excavation is essential to prevent system malfunctions and ensure long-term operational efficiency.

We determine soil suitability through a soil percolation or “perc” test. This test measures the soil’s ability to absorb and drain water effectively, which is crucial for your system to function properly. If the soil doesn’t drain well, additional solutions like sand filtration or alternative systems may be needed. Our team will evaluate the soil conditions and advise you on the best solution for your property.

Prior to digging, we ensure proper marking of the excavation site, secure the area to prevent accidents, and provide appropriate protective equipment for workers. We also avoid digging near existing utility lines and ensure the excavation site is stable. Our team always uses proper digging techniques and equipment to minimize risks such as collapsing trenches or accidental contact with hazardous materials.

While excavation for septic system installation is generally safe, it can cause damage to the property if not done carefully. Improper excavation could disrupt landscaping, existing structures, or underground utilities.

At BioFlow, we pride ourselves on minimizing disruptions. We are experienced professionals who understand how to handle the excavation process efficiently while protecting your property. We guarantee proper site preparation and careful digging to prevent damage.
