What’s Included in Our Septic Engineering and Design/Build Services

Whether you’re developing a residential lot or starting construction on a new home, we’ll guide you through every step of septic system planning and construction. We design systems that are effective, efficient, and built to last.

Site Evaluation & Planning

We begin with a property walk-through and soil test to determine the best location and type of system.

Our evaluation considers:

  • Soil absorption
  • Setback limitations
  • Drainage patterns
  • Space constraints

Custom System Design

Based on your property’s needs, we create a system layout that includes the tank, drain field, and any special components.

Why it matters:

  • Trench, bed, or multiple-bed systems
  • Pressure or gravity-fed fields
  • Distribution boxes and valve layouts

System Installation

Once your plan is approved, we manage the installation process—from excavation to final grading.

We install:

  • Tanks and lids
  • Field piping
  • Risers, filters, and valves
  • Pumps and alarms (if needed)

Ben and company came out today and did a few repairs on my septic as well as a pumping. They came in a $100 cheaper than originally estimated and made the repairs quickly. I would recommend them for either pumping or repairs.

Highly recommend A&R. Jacob is extremely knowledgable in the the different types of septic systems from standard to Sludgehammer to Eljen which was very helpful in determining the type of system needed for a septic repair.

Jake and Ben at A&R Wastewater Management were amazing! We needed immediate assistance with our Sewage Pump/float and they were fast, efficient and kind. They saved us a lot of money, whereas another company was looking to get over on us. Ben answered all of our questions & couldn’t have been any nicer. We are very appreciative and will definitely use them for any of our future needs. We highly recommend them to anyone with Septic or wastewater problems. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

We recently had to have our Septic system relocated in our yard - A&R Wastewater Management did a fantastic job and was very reasonably priced considering the size of our project. Jacob was great to work with; he was prompt and thorough with any questions we had, and they had the job completed in two days. Jacob also came back the next day to go over all the tasks that were done and to ensure we were 100% satisfied with the job performed. I highly recommend A&R Wastewater Management for any of your septic needs!

After several years of chemotherapy drugs being dumped into my septic system my septic field failed. Jacob designed and installed our new system. From the time Jacob started digging he had our system installed and back filled within 24 hours. Not only is Jacob the owner, but he did the installation too! I highly recommend A& R Waste Management for septic pumping or septic installation.
