Whether it's that annoying dripping faucet or an emergency pipe repair job, our licensed plumbers have the training and the tools to handle the smallest or the largest plumbing job and we guarantee to fix it right the first time. At Joe's Septic, we understand that we've been invited into your home to perform a much needed service and, as your guests, our certified, licensed plumbers will conduct themselves in a highly professional manner and maintain a neat and clean work area. We'll also provide a written estimate before we begin the job so you'll know how long we anticipate the job taking and how much the final bill will be including parts and labor. The last thing you want in a septic & draining emergency is another surprise.

"Very professional"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

A perc test takes an average of around two hours, but it can range from one hour up to around six hours. Perc tests that require wider or deeper holes and those that require multiple holes dug throughout your property will take longer because there’s more excavation involved. The actual filling of the hole and monitoring to gauge the rate of percolation should take under an hour per hole.

Trenches are typically 12 inches to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, your city or county may have specific ordinances that clarify the dimensions needed for the project. For instance, a water pipe may need to be 24 inches deep, but a drainage pipe may need to be 36 inches deep.

Trenching is not the same as boring. Boring uses a drill to make a tunnel for underground utilities, but trenching involves digging with an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. Boring is more precise and expensive, and it’s best for installing utilities underneath buildings, roads, and bodies of water. Trenching is simpler but can cause more disruption to landscaping and ecosystems.
