Services & Process

Custom Construction's excavation work includes site grading, foundation prep, utility trenching, and the specific digging required for septic tank installation and drain field layout. On the septic side, they handle new system design-build, repairs to existing systems, and the soil work required for drain field placement. Proper septic installation requires understanding perc test results, soil absorption rates, and local setback rules, all of which factor into how and where a system gets installed. Their experience with new construction gives them a practical understanding of how septic planning fits into a broader building project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a perc test before Custom Construction can install a septic system?
Yes, a percolation test determines how well the soil absorbs water, which directly affects what type of septic system can be installed and where the drain field can go. Missouri requires this testing before a permit is issued, and the results shape the entire system design.
Can Custom Construction handle septic work for new home construction in Lafayette County?
Yes, new construction septic installation is a core part of what they do, and their excavation background means they're already equipped for the site prep work that comes before system installation. Coordinating septic and excavation with one contractor simplifies the building process considerably.
What septic system types are common in the Odessa area?
Conventional gravity systems are common where soil conditions allow, but Lafayette County properties sometimes require alternative systems like mound systems or aerobic treatment units depending on soil percolation and lot size. A site evaluation determines which option is appropriate for your property.
How long does septic system installation typically take?
Most residential installations take one to three days for the physical work once permits are approved and the site is ready. Permit timelines vary by county, so the overall project timeline from start to finish depends partly on how quickly approvals come through.
Can I build a home addition without affecting my existing septic system?
It depends on whether the addition adds bedrooms or increases the home's water usage beyond what the current system was designed to handle. Adding capacity to an existing system is possible but requires assessment and likely additional permits.
What should I do if my septic system is backing up on a weekend or holiday?
Stop using water in the home as much as possible to prevent sewage from backing up further into the house or surfacing in the yard. Contact Custom Construction at (816) 565-1660 to discuss the situation and determine whether emergency service is needed.
