About Advanced Land Services

Advanced Land Services operates out of Skowhegan, Maine, a region where older rural properties and wooded lots make septic and excavation work genuinely complex. They offer a rare combination of septic services, excavation, and tree removal under one roof, which matters a lot when you're dealing with drain field repairs that require clearing overgrown land first. Somerset County homeowners often need exactly this kind of multi-trade capability. You won't need to coordinate three separate contractors when one crew can handle the whole job.

Services & Process

Advanced Land Services handles septic system work alongside full excavation and tree services, making them well suited for new system installations that require significant site preparation. Excavation services cover trench digging, drain field layout, and tank placement on properties where terrain or tree cover creates real challenges. Tree removal services clear root-heavy areas that commonly threaten drain fields across central Maine's forested properties. Together these capabilities let the team address root intrusion, soil disruption, and system replacement from start to finish.

Service Area

Advanced Land Services serves Skowhegan and the surrounding Somerset County area, including towns like Madison, Norridgewock, and Fairfield. Rural properties throughout central Maine with wooded or uneven lots are well within their service range. If you're not sure whether they cover your town, a quick call to (207) 431-6652 will confirm it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need tree removal before installing a new septic system?
It depends on your lot layout and where the drain field needs to go. Tree roots are a serious threat to leach fields, so clearing the area first is often the right call. Advanced Land Services can assess both the tree situation and the septic plan in a single visit.
What does a septic system installation involve in Maine?
Installation requires a site evaluation, soil testing, and a design approved by the Maine DEP before any digging starts. From there, excavation crews prep the site, set the tank, and build the drain field according to the approved plan. The whole process can take several days depending on site conditions.
How do I know if my drain field is failing?
Common signs include soggy ground or standing water over the drain field area, slow drains throughout the house, and sewage odors near the yard. In Maine's wet spring seasons, these symptoms can appear suddenly. Getting an inspection early can prevent a much costlier full replacement.
Can excavation damage my existing septic system?
It can if the excavator doesn't know where the system components are located. That's why working with a contractor who handles both excavation and septic is a real advantage. They can mark tank and pipe locations before breaking ground on any site work.
Is there a best time of year to have septic work done in Maine?
Late spring through early fall is generally ideal because frozen ground makes excavation difficult and expensive in winter. That said, emergency repairs happen year-round and a good contractor will work in winter if necessary. Planning ahead and scheduling in warmer months saves time and often reduces costs.
What permits are required for septic installation in Somerset County?
Maine requires a Subsurface Wastewater Disposal System permit through the state, and your local municipality may have additional requirements. A licensed site evaluator must test the soil and submit a design before work can be permitted. Your contractor typically manages the permit process as part of the installation.
