CHOOSE YOUR SYSTEM

Most properties drain by gravity. When the building sits below the sewer, or the run is too long for proper fall, a grinder pump and force main does the job.

Gravity Sewer — Open Trench

New and replacement gravity sewer laterals and building sewers, set to grade with proper bedding, cleanouts and tie-in at the main.

Gravity sewer →

Force Main — Directional Drilling

Small-diameter HDPE force main bored from the grinder pump to the sewer tie-in, under driveways, lawns and hardscape with minimal disruption.

Force main →

Grinder Pump Systems

Sierra Peak and E/One grinder pump systems — equipment purchase, installation, start-up and the hand-off to remote monitoring.

How We Work
FROM PURCHASE TO START-UP

One contractor for the whole sewer system — no gaps between the equipment supplier, the excavator and the electrician.

01

Site Review & Design

We walk the site, check grade to the sewer main and recommend gravity, force main or a grinder pump system.

02

Equipment Purchase

As an authorized dealer, we source the Sierra Peak or E/One pump package, tank, panel and lateral components for your site.

03

Permits & Install

Excavation, tank set, gravity piping, force main by open trench or directional drilling, and tie-in to the sewer.

04

Start-Up & Testing

We start up the system, test pump cycles and alarms, and walk the owner through how it works.

05

Monitoring Hand-Off

We set up remote monitoring and alerts and hand the system off to the owner and the monitoring service.

Equipment We Install
AUTHORIZED DEALER & INSTALLER

We are an authorized dealer and installer for Sierra Peak Pump Systems and E/One grinder pump systems.

“Very tight quarters to do the boring and it was no problem for Dave. Work site was back to its original condition before they left for the day.”

★★★★★

“He was careful to minimize the damage to the patio and set aside the removed pavers in a neat stack… helped me navigate the process with PG&E.”

★★★★★

“Able to start on the job immediately… and dig underneath a retaining wall without damaging it. He has a deep understanding of the PG&E Greenbook.”
