Septic Systems

The right septic system starts with the right plan. From new installation to replacement and maintenance, Herr Septic & Sewer helps you plan for lasting performance.

A Septic System Built for Your Property

Every property is different. The right septic system depends on:

  • Soil and site conditions
  • Groundwater and bedrock depth
  • Lot size and available space
  • Household or building size
  • Local code and permit requirements

Herr brings testing, planning, installation and service together for long-term performance.

How Septic Systems Work

Wastewater leaves your home and enters the septic tank, where solids settle and wastewater flows onward for treatment.

The drainfield and soil provide additional treatment, helping protect your property and the environment.
