New Septic System Installation in Union, ME

New Systems in Union

Sometimes the honest answer is a new system: a new house on a wooded lot, a seasonal camp being turned into a year-round home, a system put in before anyone kept records that has finally failed, or a cottage whose tank and field were sized for two weeks of summer use and are now carrying a family all year. We install and replace complete septic systems across the Midcoast. We walk the lot with you, coordinate the site work and the paperwork the town needs before a shovel goes in, set the tank, build the leach field for the soil and ledge that is actually there, and connect it so it works the first day and keeps working. Midcoast lots make this a careful job. Shallow soil over granite, clay pockets, a high water table near the water and shoreland setbacks all shape what can go where, and a system designed for the lot lasts decades longer than one forced onto it. We give you a straight price, a realistic timeline, and a system you will not have to think about.

Septic service in Union

Union is the farm town behind the coast, built around the Common and the fairgrounds where the Union Fair runs every August, with Seven Tree Pond, Crawford Pond, Sennebec Pond and Round Pond strung along the St. George River through the middle of town. There is no sewer to speak of in Union; every home, farm and camp is on septic. That makes for a wide mix of systems: old farmhouses on Route 17 and Route 235 with tanks that have served for generations, newer homes on lots split from fields and orchards, and the camps around the ponds, many of them built for summer and now used much harder than they were designed for. We pump, repair, inspect, install and replace septic systems across Union, from the Common out to East Union, North Union and South Union. The ground here is a patchwork: good depth in some fields, clay pockets that hold water in others, and ledge along the pond shores where camps sit close to the water. We see camps being converted to year-round homes on a system sized for July, pond-shore fields working over a high water table, and old tanks nobody has opened in twenty years. Tell us where the tank is and what is going on, and we will give you a straight answer and a fair price.
