Step #1: Soil Testing

The first soil evaluation is known as the  Probe. The Probe consists of digging  a pit(s)  near the intended absorption area. The purpose of the Probe is so the Sewage Enforcement Officer (SEO)  can evaluate the soil profile and locate the Limiting Zone.


The second soil evaluation is a Percolation test, designed to determine how rapidly the septic-tank effluent will percolate into and through the soil (the Water Movement Rate). Depending on the depth to the Limiting Zone.  This test consists of approximately six post hole size holes prepared for the SEO. (SEO is designated by your township) 


In the event of unfavorable soil testing results, a  Soil Scientist   maybe recommended to contuine the process. 

Step #2: Design

We have an on staff SEO whom completes the majority of our designs. On average the design will take 3-6 weeks.  Free quote is included with all of our designs.

Step #3: Installation

Step #3: Installation

Once a signed contractual agreement has been completed we will start the process of installation.  Systems typically take 1-3 Weeks to complete, and must be approved by your township SEO before we can consider the system completed to cover over. 


 Systems cannot be installed during cold or rainy days, this unfortunate delay is a DEP standard we must follow, to ensure a quality installation. 


We do not do any landscaping or grass seeding for those services we recommend contacting a landscaping company.
