The old septic tank was 1000 gallons and the new pressure system with a vaulted pump called for a 1250 gallon tank. First the old tank had to be pumped out, then dug out of the ground and disposed of. With that done the hole had to be enlarged some to put the bigger tank in. I ended up using a polyethlene plastic tank on this one since there were trees in the way that would have prevented a boom truck from being able to get a concrete tank into the location. |

I need to get a new septic tank installed, but I have no idea where to start. It makes sense that I would want to work with a professional with this kind of thing. I can see how excavating the area would be best left to the specialists.

who are we?Hi we are Richard
and Virlinda Foster. We live on a beautiful five acre piace of land on San Juan Island and love it! And we can't leave out the dog in our life, at not quite a year old Bella is a bundle of energy, all licks and wiggles who lives for car rides and people coming to see her. When Richard is not digging up something for you or working with your septic systems he enjoys hiking, camping, taking care of our property, growing fruit trees, mowing grass and of course playing with Bella.
