"My elderly mother?s cesspool was full and needed to be serviced. I decided to try the Honest Cesspool Company. I spoke with Joe who said he could come over the next morning for an estimate. The next morning he called to tell us he was on his way and was prompt. He was very professional and knowledgeable and had a pleasant attitude. He told us what had to be done and gave us an estimate. He was not pushy and was very honest. He was also able to do the job right away. He gave a fair price. We would definitely use his services again! "

Clear River Environmental is Long Islands Premier septic, cesspool, and sewer cleaning company. From minor service to Compleate installations services, no job is to big or to small. Our family of companies has been serving Long Island with pride for 25 years. We take all major credit cars cash and checks. Mention this ad for special discounts.

"This was our second time working with Clear River Environmental. They installed our new septic tank and leaching pool over a year ago for $7200. I was hesitant to use them again due to their lack of communication with regards to follow-up documents which were required by the Health Department. They attributed their lack of sending me the "as-builts" and other required certifications to having switched over their computers to a new system. Nevertheless, the issue was eventually resolved after numerous calls to their office. Fast forward to 11/19/20....I called them to install a future expansion pool which was required by the Health Department. I figured that they were at least familiar with the property and I had no complaints with the actual install from last time. Long story short...they cut through a gas line to our pool which necessitated a call to National Grid. They also destroyed large branches from a tree, a large portion of recently installed sod, as well as pavers and the curb cutout. Granted all of this damage is listed on their disclaimer, however I was a bit dismayed when they refused to compensate me for any of the bill that was required to do repair work. I understand that the owner is responsible for informing the seller of "underground perils," however I would also expect the professionals to ask the right questions before beginning a job. I would also expect professionals to consider something more than just the "repeat customer" discount to alleviate the buyer from some of the expense and stress caused by the damage of the gas line. This second job cost $5,300. Total money paid to Clear River Environmental = $12,500 . The repair to gas line cost me $900 . The pavers and curb have yet to be repaired."

FAQs for septic system installation and replacement projects in East Setauket, NY

The smallest standard septic system uses a 500-gallon tank, which costs between $875 and $1,150 installed. This size works well for single-occupant dwellings with minimal wastewater production. However, many local regulations specify minimum tank sizes, so check with your building department before committing to this compact option. Some jurisdictions require at least 750 gallons regardless of home size to ensure adequate waste processing capacity.

The installation timeline varies based on site conditions, permit processing, and contractor schedules. The process includes obtaining permits, conducting soil tests, excavation, tank placement, leach field construction, and final connections. Weather conditions, soil challenges, and inspection scheduling can all affect the overall timeline. It's wise to begin planning well in advance of when you need the system operational.

The most economical approach is to install a conventional anaerobic system with a plastic tank. To minimize costs while maintaining legality, obtain multiple quotes from licensed installers, consider scheduling during their slower seasons, and handle basic site preparation yourself. Never skip permits or required testing to save money—illegal installations can result in significant fines and mandatory removal, ultimately costing far more than doing it right initially.

Regular pumping helps prevent system failures and extends operational life. Most small systems require pumping every three to five years, though frequency depends on household size and usage patterns. Pumping services cost between $290 and $530, making this maintenance expense relatively minor compared to potential repair costs ranging from $500 to $2,600 for neglected systems. Establishing a regular maintenance schedule based on your installer's recommendations helps avoid costly emergency services.
