Services & Process

Ingleside Engineering handles septic system maintenance, inspections, and installation alongside well drilling for new or replacement water wells. Their irrigation services cover system design, installation, and maintenance for residential and agricultural properties in the Loretto area. When a property needs a new well and a compliant septic system designed to maintain safe separation distances, having one engineering-oriented contractor manage both is a significant advantage. On the septic side, they cover routine pumping as well as more technical system evaluations required for permits or real estate transactions.

Service Area

Ingleside Engineering serves Loretto and the surrounding communities in western Hennepin County, including Medina, Hamel, Maple Plain, and nearby rural townships. Their coverage extends into Wright and Carver County for well and septic projects on larger rural properties. The western Twin Cities corridor, where acreage properties are common, is their primary service area.

Frequently Asked Questions

How close can a well and septic system be on the same property in Minnesota?
Minnesota requires a minimum separation distance of 50 feet between a well and a septic tank, and at least 50 feet between a well and a drain field, though specific requirements vary by system type and site conditions. Getting this right from the start is critical to protecting your drinking water quality.
Does Ingleside Engineering handle the engineering plans required for septic permits in Hennepin County?
Yes, their engineering background positions them to produce the system designs and documentation that Hennepin County and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency require for permits. This is especially important for mound systems, at-grade systems, or other alternative designs required on challenging sites.
How do I know if my well water in the Loretto area is safe?
Private well water should be tested at least annually for coliform bacteria and nitrates, and more frequently if your area has agricultural activity nearby. Ingleside Engineering can advise on testing protocols and help identify if your well location or construction puts your water at risk.
What's involved in drilling a new well in western Hennepin County?
Well drilling in this part of Minnesota typically involves boring through glacial sediments to reach a reliable aquifer, and depths can vary significantly from one property to the next. A site evaluation and well log review helps estimate depth and expected yield before drilling begins.
Can Ingleside Engineering design an irrigation system that doesn't interfere with my septic drain field?
Absolutely, and that's actually a common concern on properties where the drain field takes up a significant portion of the yard. They'll design the irrigation layout to avoid over-saturating the drain field area, which can cause premature failure if water is consistently added on top of it.
Do I need a new septic system if I'm adding a bedroom to my home near Loretto?
Possibly. In Minnesota, septic systems are sized based on the number of bedrooms in a home, so adding a bedroom may require an upgrade to your existing system to maintain compliance. Ingleside Engineering can evaluate your current system's capacity and advise on what, if anything, needs to change.
