Our Septic System Design Process

STEP 1

Site Evaluation & Feasibility Study

Thorough site assessment includes soil evaluation, analysis of winter water tables, and review of local regulations and potential zoning restrictions. Environmental regulations and potential impact on surroundings are also considered. Our goal is to ensure the chosen site is suitable for a septic system, both functionally and legally.

STEP 2

On-Site Sewage System Design

A custom septic system plan is developed, tailored to specific site conditions and requirements. This includes selecting appropriate components, mapping out the layout of the system, and ensuring efficient wastewater treatment while protecting the environment and water sources. The design complies with all relevant health and environmental regulations.

STEP 3

As-Built Final Records

As-built records provide a detailed representation of the completed septic system, as constructed. These drawings serve as a legal document, demonstrating that the system was installed in accordance with the approved design and regulatory standards. They are crucial for future maintenance, potential modifications, and a smooth experience if the property is sold.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a new septic system design cost?

We understand that cost is a major concern when considering a new septic system design. At Streepy Septic Design, we believe in upfront and transparent pricing. Our project fees cover all the essential steps, including a thorough feasibility study, detailed system design, and final as-built drawings for your records. These prices do not include permit or filing fees associated with your project in South King or North Pierce County.

What information do I need to provide to my septic system designer?

When designing a septic system for a single family residence, we ask for a few key pieces of information such as a site plan or survey showing property boundaries, existing structures, and any wells or bodies of water bodies. We also need to know the number of bedrooms and bathrooms in your home and any high water-use appliances (like hot tubs or large washing machines). Finally, you’ll want to share any future plans for additions or a pool, as these can influence the required system size.

Do I need a permit for a septic system design?

Yes, permits are required for the design of a new septic system or a major redesign of an existing septic system. These permits help ensure systems meet health and safety standards to protect you, your family, and the environment.

The permitting process can be complex. At Streepy Septic Design, we have in-depth knowledge of local requirements and a proven track record of working with regulatory agencies. Our expertise can streamline the permitting process, saving you time and ensuring your septic system project stays on track.

What are the signs my septic system needs to be redesigned?

Several red flags can indicate that your septic system might need a redesign. Pay attention to frequent slow drains or backups, as this could mean issues with the tank or drainfield. Sewage odors around the system components are also cause for concern. Lush, soggy areas in the drainfield might signify that it's overloaded or failing. If you ever notice sewage surfacing above ground, this indicates a serious failure and requires immediate professional attention.

Can I design my own septic system?

Designing your own septic system is not allowed in Washington State. Regulations are in place to protect public health and the environment. To ensure proper function, septic systems must be designed by licensed professionals with specialized knowledge, like the team at Streepy Septic Design. We have the expertise to create safe, effective, and code-compliant septic systems tailored to your specific property and needs.

How do I choose an on-site sewage system designer?

Choosing the right OSS designer is crucial for ensuring your project runs smoothly and your system functions properly. When considering a septic designer, confirm they are licensed by the State of Washington. Prioritize designers with experience working in South King or North Pierce County, as they'll be familiar with the local regulations and soil conditions.

Streepy Septic Design fulfills all these requirements: George Streepy is a licensed designer with extensive regional experience and a strong commitment to client satisfaction.
