Ironstone Septic System Services

At Ironstone, our line of work encompasses all aspects of groundwork, especially septic systems. A septic system is an underground structure that treats wastewater from a residence or small business. Unlike centralized sewers in urban settings, most septic systems are found in rural areas where sewers are not available. According to the EPA, one out of every five homes relies on a septic system for proper wastewater treatment and disposal.

How does it work? First, wastewater leaves your home through a centralized drain pipe. While the solid waste settles and remains in the tank, the liquid waste is ushered into an on grade drain field or sand mound. Then, the wastewater is dispersed into the ground where Earth’s organic elements, such as layers of rocks and gravel, assist in natural filtration. Thus, underground aquifers are replenished regularly with clean water. Utilizing a system gains you independence from sewer reliance, and if well maintained, prevents contamination of the ecosystem with harsh chemicals or sludge.

Additionally, having a septic system is cost effective in the long term, however, it’s important to remember that knowledge and experience means quality. That is why Ironstone Excavating is readily available to assist with your septic tank needs from start to finish. First, we’ll provide room for septic installation in a convenient, but strategic location on your property. Second, we will install the septic tank as well as the on grade drain field or sand mound. Additionally, we service exist septic systems by providing tank replacements. If you are in need of septic repairs or want to install a new system, contact us for more information and for estimates.
