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 Dewitt 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 Dewitt 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.

DeWitt occupies the eastern edge of Syracuse where the Onondaga Escarpment climbs from the Butternut Creek lowland up onto the Appalachian Plateau. The lowland portions of the town, along Erie Boulevard, Route 5, and I-690, run across Honeoye silt loam and Palmyra gravelly loam on glacial till and outwash, while the higher ground east of the escarpment transitions to Mardin and Langford channery silt loams with common fragipan development.
Butternut Creek controls much of the regional drainage, eventually feeding the Onondaga Lake watershed. Commercial site work in DeWitt regularly deals with shallow Onondaga limestone along the escarpment face, including the commercial corridor around Route 92 and Manlius Center, as well as perched water and reduced infiltration on the fragipan soils above the escarpment. Projects near Erie Boulevard and Widewaters sit on former wetland and industrial fill and often require geotechnical characterization before excavation. Stormwater permitting ties into Onondaga County MS4 and Onondaga Lake AOC cleanup standards. Many commercial parcels require subsurface investigation before excavation to confirm rock depth and historic fill extent.
