"I posted the information on Angi. They contacted me quickly and responded. David arrived early the first time. He answered my questions in detail and analyzed possible scenarios. The estimated cost was reasonable. After I accepted the quote, they quickly scheduled a work appointment. Of course, they arrived early again. I really appreciate punctuality. Mark inspected the site and explained the problems they found. He carefully explained the solutions and answered every question I had. The repair quote was also reasonable. The three of them worked very well together, with clear division of labor. They were meticulous in every step. The final result completely exceeded my expectations. Without a doubt, I will use them again and recommend them to my neighbors. Oh, and Andrew did an excellent job too. Strong muscles, handsome appearance, and hardworking. In short, I highly recommend their team. I believe you won't need to look for any other company after using them."

"Jeremy could not have been better! He was up til midnight the night before due to burst pipes at his church, yet at 5pm he came immediately to our house, where a pipe had burst, flooding our garage! He was extremely polite, prompt, and fixed the problem quickly and efficiently! Price was lower than I expected, considering it was an emergency! He was a consummate professional! Would definitely call again!"

FAQs for septic system installation and replacement projects in Nashville, TN

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.
