Fauquier County, VA Septic System Repair

This farm located in Delaplane, Virginia has a house dating back to the 1800’s. With no health department records, we estimate the system to date back to the early 70’s. Upon inspection, cast iron septic tank tees are corroded and block. The distribution box indicates sludge build up from lack of maintenance. With a septic tank in operating condition our solution includes replacement of septic tank tees, gravity main line, header lines and distribution box. Once the system is uncovered, further inspection of the drainfield lateral lines will reveal their operability. In addition,  a remediator (aeration unit) to convert bacteria to aerobic from anaerobic will be installed in the septic tank. The aerobic bacteria will consume the sludge to open the lines. A Fauquier County Health Department Repair Permit will be submitted for approval of the repairs.
