Services & Process

Graham's combination of construction and septic services means they can handle new system installation from the ground up, including site evaluation, excavation, system placement, and final grading.

They also handle septic services for existing systems, including pumping and inspections. For landowners developing raw property, having one contractor manage both the land clearing and the septic work simplifies the entire process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Graham handle both land clearing and septic installation for a new rural property?
That's exactly the kind of work they're set up for. Combining land clearing with septic installation means the site prep and system placement happen in coordination, which reduces delays and keeps costs predictable compared to hiring two separate contractors.
What permits are required for a new septic system installation in Caldwell County?
New septic installations in Caldwell County require approval from the county's environmental health department and must meet TCEQ standards. Your contractor handles the permit application, but the process takes time, so it's best to start early in your project planning.
How is septic installation different on rural acreage compared to a suburban lot?
Rural properties often offer more flexibility in system placement, but they also require soil percolation testing to confirm the land can support a drain field. Vegetation, slope, proximity to water sources, and existing structures all factor into where the system can go.
Does Lockhart have municipal sewer service, or do most properties use septic?
Properties within Lockhart's city limits generally connect to municipal sewer, but the vast majority of rural and agricultural land around the city relies on private septic systems. If you're buying acreage outside town, you'll almost certainly need a private system.
How long does a new septic system installation take from start to finish?
Once permits are approved, the physical installation often takes one to three days depending on system type, site conditions, and how much land clearing is involved. Permit timelines vary by county, so the overall project can take a few weeks from first application to final inspection.
What's the best septic system type for a rural property in Central Texas?
The right system depends on your soil type, lot size, and how the property will be used. Conventional systems work well where soil percolation is adequate, while aerobic systems or low-pressure dosing systems are better suited to sites with poor absorption or limited space.
