About Excavating by M&S

Excavating by M&S operates along the Woodstown Road corridor in Salem County, NJ, an agricultural region where properties often sit on large lots with aging septic systems that need excavation-scale work to repair or replace. With a 5.0 rating and a service mix that includes excavation, septic work, and landscaping, this provider is built for the kind of ground-up septic projects that most truck-and-hose operations can't handle alone. Salem County's rural character means many properties have systems that haven't been touched in years, and getting them right often requires serious digging.

Services & Process

Excavating by M&S brings heavy equipment capabilities to septic projects, making them well-suited for full system installations, drain field replacements, and tank access excavation when lids are buried deep. Their septic services cover tank pumping and inspection, but their excavation capacity means they can also handle the earthwork involved when a failed drain field needs to be dug out and rebuilt. The landscaping side means they can restore your yard after excavation rather than leaving you with a torn-up property. That full-cycle approach saves homeowners from coordinating multiple contractors.

Service Area

Excavating by M&S serves the Woodstown Road area and surrounding Salem County communities. The region includes towns like Woodstown, Penns Grove, and Carneys Point, all of which have rural properties that commonly need excavation-level septic work. Call (856) 467-3321 to discuss your project and confirm whether your location falls within their working area.

Frequently Asked Questions

When does a septic repair actually require excavation equipment?
If your drain field has failed and needs to be replaced, if the tank itself is cracked or collapsed, or if the access lids are buried several feet down, you'll need more than a pump truck. Excavation is also required for new system installations on undeveloped land.
Can M&S handle a full septic system installation on a new property in Salem County?
A provider with excavation capabilities and septic experience is exactly what a new installation requires. You'll also need a soil evaluation and permit from the Salem County Health Department before work can begin, and a knowledgeable contractor can help guide you through that process.
What's involved in replacing a drain field?
The old drain field material is excavated and removed, the area is evaluated for soil absorption capacity, and new perforated pipe and gravel or chamber systems are installed in a layout approved by the county. It's a significant project but often less expensive than connecting to municipal sewer if that's even an option.
Will my yard be a mess after a septic excavation project?
There will be disruption, but a contractor who also does landscaping can restore grading, replace topsoil, and reseed or re-sod the affected area. That's a significant advantage over hiring a septic-only contractor who leaves the yard work to you.
Do I need a permit to replace my septic system in Salem County?
Yes. Any septic system installation or major repair in New Jersey requires a permit from your county health department, and the work must be done by a licensed installer. Your contractor should be familiar with Salem County's permitting process and can often handle the application on your behalf.
How do I know if my septic system needs full replacement versus a repair?
A professional assessment is the only reliable way to know. A technician will inspect the tank, evaluate the drain field, and check absorption rates. Sometimes a targeted repair like replacing a baffle or jetting a line solves the problem, but a completely saturated drain field typically requires full replacement.
