About Ground Shakers Construction

Ground Shakers Construction brings a unique combination of excavation, demolition, and septic services to Kapolei and the broader Ewa Plain region of Oahu. Operating on an island means strict environmental regulations and limited land space, so having a contractor who handles both the digging and the septic work is a real advantage. Kapolei's continued residential and commercial growth means new septic system installations are in constant demand. They're reachable at (808) 398-5685 for consultations on any size project.

Services & Process

Ground Shakers handles full septic system installations from the ground up, coordinating excavation work with proper tank placement and drain field layout. Their demolition capabilities mean they can remove old or failed systems completely before installing a new one, which many specialized septic companies can't do in-house. Excavation services cover everything from site clearing to trenching for leach lines. This all-in-one approach reduces the number of contractors a property owner needs to coordinate, which keeps projects on schedule.

Service Area

Ground Shakers Construction serves Kapolei and surrounding west Oahu communities including Ewa Beach, Ko Olina, Makakilo, and Waianae. They're positioned to handle projects across the Ewa Plain and can take on jobs elsewhere on the island depending on project size.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for a new septic system installation in Kapolei?
Yes, Hawaii's Department of Health requires permits for new septic system installations and major repairs. Your contractor typically handles the permit application, but you should confirm this upfront and ask for copies of all approved documents before work begins.
Why would I need demolition services along with septic work?
If your existing tank is cracked, collapsed, or decommissioned, it needs to be safely removed or properly abandoned before a new system goes in. A contractor with demolition capabilities can handle that removal on the same job, saving you time and a second mobilization cost.
How does Hawaii's soil affect septic system design?
Oahu's west side has a mix of clay-heavy soils and areas with volcanic rock close to the surface, both of which affect how quickly the drain field absorbs liquid. A site evaluation and percolation test determine what type of system will meet code and actually function long-term.
Can commercial properties in Kapolei use a septic system instead of municipal sewer?
It depends on the location and the type of business. Some areas in Kapolei are served by municipal sewer, while others still rely on on-site systems. A contractor familiar with local zoning and DOH rules can tell you what's required for your specific parcel.
How long does a full septic system installation typically take?
Most residential installations take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks once permits are approved. The timeline depends on site conditions, system size, and how quickly inspections can be scheduled with the county.
What's the difference between a conventional septic system and an aerobic system?
A conventional system uses gravity and soil absorption to treat wastewater, while an aerobic system introduces oxygen to speed up bacterial breakdown and produces cleaner effluent. Aerobic systems are often required in Hawaii when soil conditions or lot size don't support a conventional drain field.
