Services & Process

As a general contractor with septic expertise, GATS Construction can manage full system installations from site prep through final inspection, including the concrete work often needed for tank lids, risers, and access covers. Their masonry capabilities mean they can handle structural repairs around septic components that other septic-only companies would have to subcontract out. Septic services likely include tank pumping, inspections, and drain field assessments. The contracting side means they're equipped to pull permits and coordinate with local inspectors in Duval County.

Service Area

GATS Construction serves Jacksonville and the surrounding Duval County area. Their multi-trade capabilities make them a practical option for properties in outlying areas like Baldwin, Mandarin, and the rural stretches of Northwest Jacksonville where septic systems are the norm rather than the exception.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can GATS Construction handle both the septic installation and the concrete work in one project?
Yes, that's one of their main advantages. Because they operate across general contracting, septic services, and masonry, they can pour a concrete tank pad, install the system, and finish any surface work without bringing in a separate contractor.
Do I need a permit for septic work in Jacksonville?
In Duval County, most septic installations and significant repairs require a permit through the Florida Department of Health. A contractor like GATS, experienced in local regulations, can pull those permits on your behalf and ensure inspections go smoothly.
How does Jacksonville's soil affect septic system design?
Jacksonville sits on sandy, porous soil that can drain quickly but also has areas with high water tables, especially near the St. Johns River. System design has to account for both to prevent groundwater contamination and system failure.
Can they help with septic issues on a property I'm purchasing?
Yes, a pre-purchase septic inspection is a smart step before buying any property with an existing system. They can assess the tank condition, check the drain field, and give you a clear picture of what repairs, if any, you'd be taking on.
What's involved in a septic system installation on a new construction site?
A new installation starts with a soil evaluation and perc test to determine the right system size and drain field design. From there, the process includes excavation, tank placement, connecting drain lines, and a final inspection before the system is covered.
How often should a septic tank be pumped in Florida's climate?
Most Florida homeowners should pump their tank every three to five years, though households with heavy water use or garbage disposals may need it more often. Florida's warm temperatures can speed up bacterial activity, which affects how quickly solids accumulate.
