You can handle many home improvement and DIY projects proficiently, but some jobs are best left to professionals. Septic tank installation is one of those jobs’ homeowners should never attempt. These complicated systems are challenging to install correctly without the right tools and knowledge. Improper installation can lead to more than headaches.

Septic Tanks Are Complicated Systems

Septic tanks are complex systems that have many components. These systems must be installed precisely and in specific areas on your property. Plumbers will need access to the lines if problems occur with the septic tank in the future, so a precise installation is essential.

Replacing an old septic tank system can take one to eight weeks because a lot of work is involved. Installing a new septic tank takes about a week and requires specialized equipment, including an excavator.

DIY Septic Tank Installs Do Not Save Homeowners Money

One of the primary reasons homeowners attempt a DIY septic tank installation is to save money. Although the initial work may cost much less if homeowners install their septic tanks, the resulting problems will cost much more in the long run.

Not only will homeowners waste money but also their time and energy. Homeowners often must call in professionals to fix the huge messes they made while installing a septic tank without proper knowledge.

DIY Septic Tank Installs Can Endanger Your Home and Family

Raw sewage is teaming with bacteria and viruses that can make your family sick. Improperly installed septic tanks can leak raw sewage into your water supply and home. Not only could your family be at risk, but the entire community could suffer.

Improperly installed septic tank systems could cause a host of health concerns. You may not realize your family has been exposed to raw sewage until major health concerns develop.

Consider the Options of Professional Septic Tank Installation

It takes advanced studies and years of training to understand the dynamics of septic tank system installation. Taking a DIY approach leads to too many variables and guesswork, which could endanger you and your family.
