Residential Septic System Installation

Process Overview:
Installing a residential septic system involves several critical steps to ensure that it meets North Carolina’s health and safety standards.

  • Step 1: Land Clearing
    Our team begins by clearing the designated land area for your septic system, ensuring a clean and accessible site for soil evaluation and installation.

  • Step 2: Soil Evaluation
    A licensed soil evaluator assesses the soil’s composition and drainage capacity to determine the system type suitable for your property.

  • Step 3: Health Department Approval
    We work with the local health department, who reviews the soil evaluation and provides approval. This step is essential to ensure the system complies with all state regulations and meets environmental standards.

  • Step 4: System Recommendation
    Based on the health department’s guidelines, we’ll recommend the septic system that best fits your property’s requirements.

  • Step 5: Installation
    Our team oversees the septic installation, ensuring it is placed accurately according to specifications. We work with trusted installers to handle the excavation and system setup professionally.

  • Step 6: Inspection
    Before finalizing, the health department performs an inspection to verify compliance and ensure safe, correct installation.

  • Step 7: Covering and Completion
    Once approved, we cover the system, restore the land, and ensure your system is ready for use. We’ll obtain the Certificate of Occupancy (CO) upon completion, finalizing the process.

Excavation Process

Our excavation services are customized to each project, depending on its scope and complexity. Here’s a general outline of our process:

  • Step 1: Permits and Dig Authorization
    Carolina Elite Excavation initiates the process by contacting 811 to obtain the necessary dig permit and ensure the safety of surrounding utilities.

  • Step 2: Consultation with the Property Owner
    We meet with the property owner to discuss project goals, assess site requirements, and outline the specifics of the excavation.

  • Step 3: Estimate Preparation
    Based on the consultation, we prepare a comprehensive estimate detailing the costs, timeline, and materials involved.

  • Step 4: Job Completion
    Once approved, we complete the excavation, adhering to all safety standards and maintaining open communication throughout the process to ensure client satisfaction.
