New and replacement conventional or aerobic systems, from site evaluation to permit.
Get a Free QuoteInstalling or replacing a septic system in Ellis County starts with a site evaluation and soil analysis. Much of the county has dense clay that does not absorb water well, which is why aerobic systems with surface spray are so common here.
Typical steps
- Site evaluation and soil analysis
- System design sized to the home's bedrooms and square footage
- Permit application through the county OSSF office
- Installation and county inspection
- Startup and, for aerobic systems, the initial maintenance contract
Timelines depend heavily on permitting and weather. Ask for a written scope before work begins.
