"We had another company quote us $5000 to replace the septic pump, when we called A-Advanced they quoted us $2000 for the same job. Also came out to fix the electrical that wasn't working that the first company didn't inform us of. When the following weekend we had the issue again they came out and did more diagnostics and fixed the problem. All 5 of the people we have had come out have been very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. 5 stars all the way."

"Ryan and his team were great to work with on our complicated project! We ended up with them after the initial company’s estimate on installing the design came in very high. Ryan helped us figure out a more reasonable price and still done in a timely and professional way. He is a proactive communicator and we’re really happy with the work!"

"When I found out my existing drainage field was failing after a septic pump-out, I hired Mr. Skinner to install a brand new drainage field. Sam was awesome. From our first site visit until close out, Sam was responsive, polite, professional, not intrusive, communicated with me about what was going on, and I can't recommend him enough. Go with Skinner for septic projects! -Grady"

FAQs for septic system installation and replacement projects in Tacoma, WA

Most septic system replacements require several days to complete, not including permitting and preparation time. The process begins with site assessment and testing, followed by excavation, component installation, and final inspection. Weather conditions, property accessibility, and inspection schedules can all affect your project timeline. Your contractor can provide a more specific estimate based on your property's unique characteristics.

Standard homeowners' insurance policies don't cover septic system replacement due to age or normal deterioration. Coverage may apply if damage results from specific covered events, but routine maintenance and eventual replacement are generally considered homeowner responsibilities. Review your policy details or speak with your insurance agent to understand your specific coverage limitations.

Look for multiple indicators such as slow-draining fixtures, unusual gurgling sounds in plumbing, sewage odors inside or outside your home, or wet spots in your yard. Unusually lush grass over the drain field area, frequent backups, or recurring repair needs might signal system failure. Addressing these warning signs promptly can prevent property damage and health hazards.

DIY septic installation is not recommended and may violate local regulations. Professional installation ensures compliance with health codes, proper design for your specific site conditions, and appropriate safety measures. The specialized equipment, technical knowledge, and permitting requirements make this a job best left to licensed professionals who can guarantee the system's safety and effectiveness.

With proper maintenance, including regular pumping, a drain field lasts 20 years. Various factors influence system longevity, including household size, water usage patterns, and soil conditions. Regular professional inspections can help determine when replacement becomes necessary. If your system requires increasingly frequent repairs, replacement might be more economical than continuing to address individual problems.
