With each job comes certain challenges. We take pride in finding great solutions and always look out for the owners in the process. For this job: The lot had a substantial slope to it and there was no sewer available so the original design included a fairly expensive septic system. There were concerns that the septic system would eventually give the owners problems and it was designed to take up most of the backyard. After hours of research and meetings with neighbors and ECUA, we figured out a way to run a sewer line along a neighbor’s property line to an ECUA sewer main. This saved my owners a little money and any future problems with maintaining a septic system.
