HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BUY OR INSTALL A NEW SEPTIC TANK?

Factors Affecting Septic Tank Installation Costs

Before we can install a septic tank, the property owner will need to get a permit from the county health department. The requirements, and thus the work required and its cost, are different in each county.

In the past, we've charged as little as $3,000 and up to $28,000--a big difference.

​

Other factors affecting the exact charge:

• The length of field lines required

• The size of the tank required

• The amount of cover dirt required (if any)

• The amount of brush or tree clearing required (if any)
