    For a septic tank replacement, a permit will be issued before the work can begin. A plan must be submitted for review and approved, then work can start.


     A permit is NOT required for a septic tank lid replacement. Lids get replaced upon condition as inspected and up to our own judgement. It’s obvious when the lids need to be replaced, because it becomes a structural issue and the integrity is compromised.    

    Lid Replacement is EASY and quick

    Tank lids never escape erosion,and you can fall into them if unchecked for periods of time.


    The problem is  sulfide gasses collect  in  the  leach  field  and  travel backward and  enter the tank from the outlet side,  completely eroding the concrete and anything that is above the operating water level.

    So outlet baffles get destroyed and start letting solids escape into the field, which usually requires a leach line repair if neglected long enough.

    Also a septic tank lid replacement which can be covered up with no inspection.
