T & T Underground is an accredited and distinguished excavation company specializing in civil- site work, underground utilities and excavation. First established as T & T Designs and Construction in 2006, our evolution into T & T Underground in 2016 marked a strategic shift towards our specialization in providing excavation and civil Contracting services and proving to be one of the most active leaders in industry.

"T&T Designs and Construction did a fantastic job with our project. We were forced to eliminate our current septic system and convert to the city sewer which was a pretty big project. The whole thing was around 600 feet long and also had to do a new sewer tap. It was very deep (around 20 feet) to the city sewer. Nick & his Team handled it quickly and professionally. We really appreciated how careful they were with our property. They managed to install the new line and avoid damaging our newer asphalt driveway by doing a long curve around the parameter to avoid everything. Connecting to the deep sewer line was no problem for them. The crew was great to work with. They were always considerate and making sure things were safe and tidy. They even fixed all the grass they dug up. What really surprised us was they used asphalt millings to improve our dirt driveway without charging us anything. We're very happy with their work and would definitely recommend T&T Designs."

FAQs for septic system installation and replacement projects in Detroit, MI

Depending on maintenance and environmental conditions, septic distribution boxes last between 15 and 40 years. With excellent care and regular system maintenance, these components can function properly for over 30 years. Factors affecting longevity include soil conditions, proper installation, regular septic tank pumping, and avoiding excessive water usage that might overwhelm the system.

Warning signs of distribution box problems include unusually lush or soggy grass patches over your drain field, slow-draining fixtures throughout your home, and unpleasant odors in your yard. You might also experience plumbing backups, gurgling sounds in pipes, or multiple drain clogs occurring simultaneously. These symptoms indicate that wastewater isn't being evenly distributed across your leach field lines.

Most standard homeowners' insurance policies don't cover septic distribution box replacement when damage results from normal wear, age-related deterioration, or poor maintenance. Coverage might apply if damage occurs from sudden, covered events like falling trees or vehicle impacts. Some insurers offer optional septic system endorsements for additional protection. Review your specific policy details to understand your coverage options.

Septic professionals recommend having your distribution box and overall septic system inspected every two to five years. Some homeowners opt for more frequent checks, especially if they've experienced previous issues or have an older system. Regular inspections help identify minor problems before they develop into major failures requiring complete replacement. These preventative evaluations cost between $100 and $200.
