Septic Systems and Cisterns

When installing a septic system or cistern, excavation of the earth is essential. You will need to have the area cleared and reinforced properly for effective installation of the system. Our quick trench and compaction enables us to create the perfect space for your cistern or septic system.

Site Preparation

Before any construction project begins, site preparation must be undertaken. This includes grading the site, removing stumps and brush, as well as cutting trees. Building on a new plot of land means eliminating anything that stands in the way of earth removal and construction. This is an essential part of any project. At Exterra, our site preparation process is: 

  • Survey the area.
  • Removal of undergrowth, shrubs, trees, stumps, rocks, sod, and earth.
  • Levelling and grading of the site. 

After site preparation, any necessary landscaping begins. As part of the removal process, seeding, planting, and installation often takes place during or directly after.
