Three fields. We call back today, not next week.
Click through to see what a Backwell septic replacement in Macedon 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 Macedon 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.

Macedon lies in western Wayne County along the Erie Canal, inside the Finger Lakes drumlin field east of Rochester. Soils across the town's commercial corridors along Route 31 and the NYS Thruway interchange are predominantly Honeoye silt loam and Lima silt loam on the drumlin flanks, with Palmyra gravelly loam on the outwash benches and Canandaigua silty clay loam and Wayland silt loam in the low ground along the canal and Mud Creek.
The Erie Canal and its feeder channels control drainage across the northern half of the town, and any earthwork inside or adjacent to the canal prism triggers NYS Canal Corp review. Commercial excavation in Macedon typically involves cobbly, stony trenching on the drumlins, structural fill importation on the clay-loam flats, and stormwater design tied to the Ganargua Creek and Genesee River watershed. Shallow bedrock appears only on the highest drumlin summits. Frost depth is moderate by regional standards, reflecting the transition between lake-moderated and interior climate zones.
