Septic Tank Installation

When it’s time for a new septic system, Gross Septic Pumping delivers dependable septic tank installation services designed for the unique conditions of Southern Arizona. Whether you're building a new home or replacing a failing system, our experienced team handles every step—from site evaluation to final connection—with care and precision.

A septic system is one of the most important parts of your property, and cutting corners during installation can lead to years of drainage issues and expensive repairs. We work with homeowners, builders, and property managers to ensure every installation meets local code, handles daily use, and functions the way it should from day one.

Installed the Right Way, the First Time

A poorly installed septic tank is more than just a headache—it can damage your property, disrupt your plumbing, and cause long-term health and safety issues. At Gross Septic Pumping, we handle every detail to make sure your tank is sized, placed, and connected correctly for your soil, water usage, and home layout.

We install both concrete and high-quality plastic septic tanks depending on what’s best for your location and budget. From permit applications and soil testing to excavation and backfilling, we take care of the entire process, keeping you informed and involved every step of the way.

Designed for Southern Arizona Conditions

Tucson and the surrounding region have unique terrain, climate, and soil types that directly affect how your septic system performs. Our team has decades of hands-on experience installing systems in rocky terrain, sandy washes, and expansive desert properties. We know how to position your tank and leach field for proper flow and long-term reliability, even during heavy rain or extreme drought.

We also account for common challenges like:

  • Shallow or poor-draining soils
  • High summer temperatures
  • Tree root intrusion risks
  • Code compliance in rural zones

By planning for these conditions upfront, we help prevent future system failures and make sure your new septic installation is built to last.

What Goes Into a Quality Septic Tank Installation

A professional septic tank installation is about more than digging a hole and dropping in a tank. At Gross Septic Pumping, we follow a step-by-step process to make sure your system is built for long-term performance, soil compatibility, and compliance with all local codes.

Here are just a few of the critical steps we take:

Site Evaluation and Soil Analysis

We start by evaluating your property to determine the best location for your tank and leach field. Soil testing helps us understand drainage conditions and ensure your system is designed for the environment it’s installed in.

Proper Tank Sizing and Selection

We recommend the right tank size based on your household size, plumbing layout, and expected usage. We also help you choose between durable concrete or lightweight poly tanks depending on your site conditions and long-term goals.

Excavation and System Layout

Our team handles excavation with precision, creating a stable base for the tank and laying out the system to optimize flow and maintenance access. Every step is done to spec—no shortcuts.

Leach Field Design and Installation

The leach field is a critical part of your system. We install drain lines with the right pitch and spacing to disperse wastewater evenly and prevent future saturation or flooding issues.

Tank and Plumbing Hookups

We connect your new tank to your home’s plumbing and ensure all connections are watertight, properly vented, and ready for use. We also verify that the system flows freely from the house to the tank and into the leach field.

Permit and Inspection Compliance

Every installation we perform follows ADEQ and local health department regulations. We handle all permitting and inspections, so your system passes code the first time and is ready for years of reliable service.
