Soil Testing

In order to determine the type of septic system repair that will work well with the soil at your home, soil testing with the local health department is a requirement.

Soil testing, or percolation testing, is critical in septic system repairs or replacement. A “perc” test of the soil, tests the level of liquid absorption of the soil. This information helps to determine the type of septic system that will work best. This information is typically valid for about 10 years, however the local health department will determine that depending on the situation.

We are able to provide B100a soil testing for building conversions, such as additions, or a change in building use, such as a home to a day care. Contact us today to discuss scheduling and find out what requirements are needed for your upcoming project!
