Our Drain Field Installation Process
Soil Testing & Evaluation
We begin with comprehensive soil testing including percolation tests to measure how quickly water drains through your soil. This testing determines drain field size requirements and helps us design the most effective system for your Sterling CT property. We also evaluate site conditions and identify the best drain field location.
Design & Permits
Based on soil test results, we design the drain field system and prepare all necessary documentation for health department approval. We handle all permit applications and work with health department officials to ensure designs meet CT requirements. This includes determining drain field size, layout, and system type.
Excavation & Installation
Once permits are approved, we excavate trenches for the drain field according to the approved design. We install perforated pipes with proper slope, surround them with drainage gravel, and ensure proper distribution. The installation follows exact specifications to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
Final Inspection & Restoration
After installation, we coordinate with the health department for final inspection. Once approved, we backfill trenches, restore the site, and ensure proper grading. We provide system documentation and maintenance recommendations to help ensure long-term performance of your drain field.
