Professional Septic Installation in Laurel County

At McCarty’s Construction, we recently completed a full septic system installation for a homeowner in Laurel County, Kentucky. The property needed a reliable, long-lasting system that met local health department guidelines and was suited for their soil conditions. Our team handled the entire process — from excavation to tank placement to final grading.

Step-by-Step Installation Process

1. Site Evaluation & Planning

Before breaking ground, we evaluated:

  • soil type

  • percolation rate

  • drainage patterns

  • required setbacks

  • tank size needed for the home

This ensures the system performs efficiently and passes inspection the first time.

2. Excavation & Tank Placement

Using our excavator, we opened the area for the tank and lines. Septic installation requires precision — depth, slope, and final elevation all matter.
We then placed the precast tank carefully to avoid cracking or shifting.

3. Installing the Leach Field

The drain lines were trenched out to the correct depth to allow proper flow and filtration. Once the lines were laid out and connected, the system was leveled, backfilled, and compacted.

4. Final Grading & Cleanup

After the installation, we graded the yard to:

  • prevent erosion

  • shed water away from the home

  • leave a clean, smooth finish ready for grass

The entire job was completed efficiently, leaving the homeowner with a dependable septic system built to last for decades.
