About American Wastewater Systems After more than 30 years of development, American Wastewater Systems, Inc., formerly Ace Plumbing and Sewer, Inc., has become a true leader in the wastewater treatment industry. We began operations early in 1981, by installing home sewer systems and working as master plumbers, all from the confines of our home-office-warehouse location. In 1992 we curtailed our plumbing business and concentrated more on the wastewater treatment industry. We bought a 5000 sq. ft. metal building on a 250’ X 260’ lot and proceeded to manufacture and continue to install home wastewater treatment plants. Four years later, in 1996, we expanded our operations and began to manufacture and install commercial treatment plants and lift stations. Within one year’s time we had become the largest distributor of commercial plants in the state of Louisiana, for Jet, Inc., a manufacturer of engineered wastewater treatment plants. American Wastewater Systems, Inc. established its corporate office location in June 1999. We purchased a new 16.5-acre location; featuring a two-story office complex with extensive warehouse space, an all-weather casting facility, and over 5 acres of cargo storage area for castings. By this time, we had become the largest Jet, Inc. commercial wastewater treatment plant distributor, not only in Louisiana, but also in the United States. We have designed our own “Class 1” residential wastewater treatment system called B.E.S.T. 1. With the successful testing and approval by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF), we began manufacturing and marketing these units in May of 2000. Patent rights were secured on July 24, 2001 under Patent No. US D 445,477 S. Our B.E.S.T. 1 was the first ANSI/NSF Standard 40 system introduced to the Louisiana market and fully complies with the newly required regulations being enforced as of March 1, 2001.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.
