Septic Installation, Pumping, and Inspection Experts

Serving Howard County & Surrounding Areas

Comprehensive Septic System Installation

Soil evaluation, engineered design, permitting, and turnkey builds

Loewen Excavating & Septics designs and installs complete onsite wastewater systems tailored to your property and household demand. Our team conducts soil and site evaluations (including percolation testing when required), advises on the right system type—conventional, chamber, mound, pressure dosing, or advanced treatment—then produces designs and handles all permits. During construction we install tanks, risers, effluent filters, distribution boxes, laterals, pumps, control panels, and alarm components using premium, code-compliant materials.

From excavation to final grade, we prioritize durability, safety, and minimal disturbance. Laser-guided equipment ensures precise elevations and drainage, erosion controls protect your landscape, and our crew maintains clean, organized work zones. After startup and performance checks, we provide as-built documentation, maintenance schedules, and warranty information so your system runs efficiently for years.

Cleanouts that extend system life and prevent backups

Regular pumping prevents solids from reaching the drainfield and causing costly failures. Based on tank size and occupancy, most homes benefit from service every 2–4 years. Our pumping includes locating and exposing access lids, thorough agitation and removal of sludge and scum, rinsing as needed, and inspection of baffles, tees, inlet/outlet piping, and effluent filters. For pump tanks, we test floats and verify pump operation.

You’ll receive a clear service report with measured sludge/scum levels, before-and-after photos, and disposal documentation from a licensed facility. Loewen Excavating & Septics also offers jetting for clogged lines, filter cleaning, minor repairs, emergency pumping, and convenient reminder scheduling—always with transparent pricing and respectful care for your property.

Objective reports, targeted repairs, and compliance guidance

Whether for routine maintenance or a property transfer, our inspection process delivers objective, actionable results. We evaluate tank integrity, water-tightness, baffles, and structural components; check for groundwater infiltration; assess distribution boxes and laterals; and look for ponding or surfacing at the drainfield. When appropriate, we use cameras and flow tests to verify performance.

After the fieldwork, we compile a digital report with system diagrams, findings prioritized by urgency, photos, and recommendations. If issues are discovered, we outline repair options, timelines, and budget ranges, and we can perform many corrections promptly to prevent further damage.

For real estate transactions, we coordinate with agents, buyers, and lenders, meet contractual requirements, and keep closings on schedule. Our team is familiar with typical underwriting expectations, and we provide fast turnarounds without compromising on inspection depth or accuracy.
