We handle septic system installation in Rhode Island and the septic system design that comes before it. When a system fails, we find the cause before the septic system repair begins. Our other services cover excavation, site work, sewer and water lines, drain cleaning, drainage systems and retaining walls. Call or text (401) 474-8926, and we look at the job and put the quote in writing.

Septic System Design

Your lot's soil and water table set the design

Test holes dug within 25 feet of the planned leach field for the soil evaluation
Layouts sized by bedroom count and set back from wells and foundations
Leach field designs: trench and stone systems, flow diffusers, Eljen In-Drains and shallow narrow drain fields
Advanced and nitrogen-reducing designs, including F.A.S.T., Advantex and Orenco systems and bottomless sand filters
Designs for new house lots, and replacement designs for failed systems and cesspools
