You’re building something that matters. Your new home, your family’s future, your investment in Corinth. The last thing you need is a septic system that fails in five years because corners were cut during installation.
When we install your septic system, you get decades of reliable performance. No unexpected backups flooding your basement. No emergency repairs that cost more than the original installation. No health department violations that complicate future property sales.
Your system gets sized correctly for your household, positioned for optimal drainage in Corinth’s unique soil conditions, and installed to meet every local code requirement. You get peace of mind knowing your investment is protected by contractors who understand what proper installation actually means.
We’ve been serving Corinth and the surrounding Saratoga County area since 1997. What started as a logging business evolved into full-time excavation in 2020, with Josh’s son joining as a partner in 2022.
This is a family operation where Josh is present on almost every job. We’re not trying to be the biggest excavating company in New York. We’re focused on being your excavator forever by doing the work right the first time.
Too many property owners in Corinth have dealt with contractors who overpromise and disappear when problems arise. We built our reputation one project at a time by understanding that your property deserves contractors who finish what we start.
Your septic installation starts with soil testing and site evaluation. We need to understand your property’s specific conditions before any digging begins. Corinth’s soil varies significantly – from sandy areas near water sources to dense clay deposits that require specialized handling.
We handle all permit applications and regulatory compliance with local health departments. You don’t need to navigate bureaucracy or worry about code violations down the road.
The installation itself involves precise excavation using GPS guidance technology. We create detailed digital models of your entire site to eliminate guesswork. Your tank gets positioned for optimal drainage, connected properly to your home’s plumbing, and integrated with a leach field designed for your specific soil conditions.
Final inspection and system testing ensure everything works correctly before we consider the job complete. You receive documentation for your records and clear instructions for long-term maintenance.

Your septic system installation includes everything needed for reliable operation. Soil testing determines the right system type for your property conditions. Professional excavation creates proper depths and drainage slopes using our GPS-guided equipment.
We source quality tanks and components from established suppliers, not the cheapest materials we can find. Your system gets sized appropriately – not oversized to inflate costs or undersized to create future problems.
Corinth properties often require specific considerations due to seasonal water table changes and varying soil composition throughout the area. We account for these local factors during design and installation. Your system works reliably through wet springs and dry summers.
All necessary permits get handled professionally. We coordinate inspections with local authorities and provide documentation for your records. You get a septic system that meets current codes and protects your property value for years to come.
Septic system installation in Corinth typically ranges from $15,000 to $25,000 for most residential properties, depending on system size, soil conditions, and local requirements. Properties with challenging soil or complex drainage needs may cost more.
We provide clear, upfront estimates with no hidden fees. Your quote includes soil testing, permits, excavation, system installation, and final inspection. We don’t surprise you with extra charges for “unforeseen” conditions that experienced contractors should anticipate during the initial assessment.
The investment protects your property value and family health for decades when done correctly. Cutting corners to save a few thousand dollars often creates expensive problems that cost more than proper installation would have cost originally.
Corinth’s soil conditions vary significantly across the area, from sandy soils near water sources to dense clay deposits. Most properties work well with conventional septic systems when properly designed and installed.
Properties with poor drainage or high water tables may require advanced treatment systems or mound systems. We determine the right solution through soil testing and site evaluation, not guesswork or one-size-fits-all approaches.
Clay-heavy soils common in parts of Corinth require special consideration for leach field design and may need soil amendments or drainage improvements. Sandy soils drain well but require proper setbacks from wells and water sources. We account for these local conditions in every installation.
Most residential septic installations in Corinth take 3-5 days from start to finish, weather permitting. This includes excavation, system installation, backfilling, and final grading.
Complex installations or challenging soil conditions may take longer. Properties requiring extensive soil amendments, drainage improvements, or advanced treatment systems need additional time for proper installation.
We provide realistic timelines upfront based on your specific property conditions. Weather delays are common in our area, especially during spring and fall, so we build contingency time into project schedules rather than making promises we can’t keep.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and regulatory compliance for your septic installation. This includes health department permits, building permits if required, and any special permits for challenging sites.
Navigating local regulations can be complicated, especially for properties near wetlands or with unique site conditions. We know what’s required and maintain good relationships with local officials to keep your project moving forward.
You receive copies of all permits and inspection documentation for your records. This paperwork is important for future property sales and system maintenance, so we make sure everything is properly documented and filed.
We discuss potential issues during the initial site assessment, so problems rarely come as complete surprises. When unexpected conditions arise – like unmarked utilities or unusual soil layers – we explain your options and costs before proceeding.
Our equipment ownership means we can adjust quickly without waiting for rental availability. If we need different machinery or specialized equipment for challenging conditions, we have backup options available.
Communication is key when problems arise. We explain what we’ve found, why it affects the installation, and what solutions are available. You make informed decisions based on clear information, not pressure tactics or emergency pricing.
Proper installation includes several verification steps that many contractors skip. Your system should pass all required inspections, including soil testing, installation inspection, and final system testing.
We provide documentation showing your system meets local codes and manufacturer specifications. This includes photos of key installation steps, inspection reports, and warranty information for major components.
A correctly installed system operates quietly without odors, handles your household’s wastewater capacity without backups, and maintains proper drainage year-round. You shouldn’t experience problems during the first several years of operation if installation was done properly.
