Our Process
From Site Walk to Signoff
01
Site Walk
We meet on-site, scope the project, and identify the right system for your soil and lot.
02
Design & Permit
We design the system, pull the Shasta County EHD permit, and deliver a fixed-cost quote.
03
Install
Excavation, tank set, drain field, and tie-in. Most residential installs run 3 to 7 days on site.
04
Inspection
County inspection, signoff, final site cleanup. You're done dealing with the septic.
Financing Available
Big Job, Manageable Payments
Every install is quoted after a site walk. Soil, lot access, and system size all affect the final number. If you need to spread the cost, we've got you covered.

Common Questions
Before You Install
How long does a septic install take?
A typical residential install is 3 to 7 days on site once the permit is in hand. Big systems or complex sites take longer. Permit timing varies by Shasta County workload.
Do you handle the Shasta County permits?
Yes. We pull EHD permits and coordinate the inspections. You don't have to chase paperwork.
Can you finance the install?
Yes, through HFS Financial. Loans up to $450,000 with fixed rates from 7.8% APR and no home equity required. See the financing page for details.
Does my site need a lot of prep work?
Depends on the lot. Ray Excavating (our sister company) handles grading, trenching, and earthwork as part of the install when needed. One bill, one crew.
Do I need a percolation test?
For new installs in Shasta County, usually yes. We coordinate the perc test as part of the design phase before pulling permits.
What kind of system will I get?
Depends on your soil, lot size, and household. Most residential systems are conventional gravity drain fields. Tight soil or small lots sometimes need engineered or pressurized systems.
