Septic Installation
New septic systems for new builds and replacement tanks when an old one gives out. We dig with our own equipment, set the precast concrete tank, plumb it, and tie it into the drain field.

Septic services in Millersville start with one question: is the house on a septic tank or on the city sewer? The City of Millersville runs its own sewer system, and other homes rely on a tank and a drain field. A gurgling toilet or a wet patch in the yard points to a different fix on each side.

Millersville covers about 13.5 square miles across Robertson and Sumner counties. Most of the city sits in Sumner County. The 2020 Census counted 6,299 people living there. Interstate 65 runs through the middle of town, and US 31W, the Louisville Highway, runs through the eastern side.
The city runs its own sewer system through a Sewer Division in Public Works. That division installs new sewer lines and inspects and maintains the existing ones. It also marks the underground sewer utilities. Homes that are not tied into the city system run on a septic tank and a drain field.
The two systems fail in different ways. On city sewer, the usual trouble is the pipe that carries waste out of the house. On septic, a backup can start with a full tank or a field that stopped taking water.
On a sewered home, one pipe carries everything from the house out to the city system. When that sewer line cracks or fills with roots, the whole house feels it. Drains run slow and gurgle, and the lowest drain in the house backs up first.
We start with a sewer camera inspection, so the fix matches what is in the pipe. Roots and buildup can often be cleared with hydro jetting, and a simple clog may only need drain cleaning. A broken or sagging section is a dig and replace job for our crew.
Our crew does its own excavation, and the company brings 20 years of septic and sewer experience. When a line crosses a road, we saw the asphalt, set the new pipe and patch the road ourselves.
On a septic home, the sewer line runs from the house to the tank instead of a city main. Solids settle in the tank, and the liquid moves on to the drain field. A tank that goes too long between pumpings pushes solids into the field and shortens its life. Before we run a cable through a slow line, we check the tank.
Septic repair covers the parts that wear out: pumps, floats, alarms, control panels, baffles and broken lines. When the ground over the field stays soggy or smells, the field itself may be failing. That calls for drain field repair, and our crew digs and rebuilds the gravel and fabric trenches.
Buried lids turn every pumping into a digging job. Septic tank risers bring the lids up to ground level. Buying or selling a home on septic in Millersville? A septic inspection shows the condition of the tank and the field before closing.
The City of Millersville has its own rule for septic cleaning inside the city limits. Cleaning an existing septic system needs no permit from the city. The contractor has to register with the city's Codes Department before the work starts.
After the work, the contractor notifies the Codes office in writing. The notice gives the date the work was completed and a description of the work. The Codes Administrator's office is at City Hall on Louisville Highway.
In Millersville, a septic permit comes from the state, through the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC). TDEC's Nashville Environmental Field Office serves both Robertson and Sumner counties, so both sides of town use the same office. Our Tennessee septic permit guide covers the steps, and our septic tank installation work uses precast concrete tanks. We are licensed, insured and bonded.

Hydro jetting sends high pressure water down the line to cut grease, scale and sludge off the pipe wall. We look at older pipe with a camera first, then set the pressure to match it.
