Failed leach field? Tank past its life? We replace tanks, drain fields, and full systems to NYSDOH 75-A. Old system decommissioned, new system inspected and documented.
Three fields. We call back today, not next week.
Click through to see what a Backwell septic replacement in Chittenango includes.
A field that stays soggy or backs up again right after pumping is usually done; biomat clogging does not heal. A sound tank with a failed field means field-only replacement. A cracked, rusted-out steel, or collapsing tank means tank replacement. We tell you which one you actually need after the site visit, in writing.
Yes, if the tank passes inspection. We perc test the replacement area, design to NYSDOH 75-A separation and sizing, and tie the new field into your existing tank. If the original field area is exhausted, the new field goes in a reserve area.
From signed contract to mobilization is typically 2-5 weeks, mostly county permit and design time. Active dig time on the property runs about 2-5 days for a conventional replacement, longer for engineered mound systems.
Yes. Design, county health department permit, inspections, and the final as-built all go through us. You sign one contract and get one written fixed price.
Local crew, local soil, local permit office.
Most failed systems in Chittenango went in decades ago and were sized for smaller households. We do not nurse a dead leach field along with pump-outs. We perc test, design to current NYSDOH 75-A, and put in a system that passes inspection and holds up.

Chittenango occupies the break between the Madison County uplands and the Oneida Lake lowland, where Chittenango Creek tumbles off the escarpment at Chittenango Falls and crosses a broad alluvial corridor. Upland soils are Honeoye and Lima silt loams over limestone till; the flats below the escarpment are dominated by Palmyra gravelly loam on outwash, Wayland silt loam in the floodplain, and Lakemont silty clay loam in the relict lake flats toward Bridgeport.
Chittenango Creek controls much of the buildable land's drainage regime, and the Erie Canal corridor crosses the north end of the village with its own grading and permitting implications. Commercial site work in Chittenango ranges from rock excavation and steep-cut stabilization on parcels near Route 5 and the escarpment, to dewatering and imported fill on the lake-plain soils closer to Oneida Lake. Stormwater permitting ties into the Oneida Lake watershed, which imposes stricter phosphorus and sediment controls than most inland tributaries. Shallow Onondaga limestone outcrops on the escarpment face can slow trenching on south-of-village parcels.
