Your Wiscasset Septic Crew
Wiscasset is the southwest end of our route, the Lincoln County seat on the Sheepscot River, with the courthouse and the old jail on the hill, the sea captains’ houses along High Street, Red’s Eats at the bridge, and the Route 1 traffic that everyone in Maine knows about. The village is on sewer. The rest of the town is not: the homes out Route 27 toward the Boothbay peninsula, Route 218 up the Sheepscot toward Alna and Sheepscot village, Birch Point and the shore roads along Montsweag Bay, and the back roads toward Dresden and Westport Island. We pump, repair, inspect, install and replace septic systems across Wiscasset and the surrounding country. The land here is tidal-river land: thin soil over ledge along the Sheepscot and Montsweag, clay inland, and a water table that rises with the tide on the shore lots. Many Wiscasset homes are old, and the septic systems behind the handsome fronts are often older than their owners. Add the usual Midcoast run of seasonal places and sales to buyers from away, and you have steady work for a crew that knows how to find a buried tank and read a wet field. Wiscasset is the far end of our line, but we drive it often. Tell us where the tank is and what is going on, and you get a straight answer and a real price.

Common Septic Issues in Wiscasset
The septic problems we see most around here, and how we handle them.
Old houses with older systems
Wiscasset is full of handsome nineteenth-century houses, and the septic systems behind them have often been in the ground for fifty years or more. Undersized tanks, dropped baffles and lids buried under generations of landscaping are common. A pump-out with the lid off tells you what you really have.
Tidal-river lots with a rising water table
Along the Sheepscot and Montsweag Bay the water table moves with the tide and the ground stays wet, leaving a leach field little dry soil to work with. Pumping on schedule and keeping surface water off the field protect a field working in that ground.
Sales to buyers from away
Wiscasset homes change hands regularly, often to buyers who have never owned a septic system, and the lender or buyer commonly wants a report before closing. We inspect the tank, components and field and turn around a written report that fits the date.
