Services & Process

Wichita Drainage & Grading handles septic services with the added capability of full excavation work on the same project. That means they can install brand-new septic systems on undeveloped lots, replace damaged or collapsed drain field lines, and regrade the soil around an existing system to improve drainage and reduce standing water. Excavation also allows them to perform deep tank repairs or full tank replacements that other companies might not be equipped to tackle. Surface grading around the septic area helps direct rainwater away, which is a key factor in protecting drain field longevity.

Service Area

Wichita Drainage & Grading serves the Wichita metro area and broader Sedgwick County region. Their excavation equipment makes them a practical choice for larger-scale projects in suburban and rural areas surrounding Wichita.

Frequently Asked Questions

When does a septic repair actually require excavation in Wichita?
Any job that involves replacing drain field lines, repairing a cracked or collapsed tank, or installing a new system will require digging. Surface-level issues like a damaged riser or lid can be fixed without heavy equipment, but most significant repairs go underground.
How does grading affect my septic system's performance?
Proper grading directs surface water away from the drain field, which prevents the soil from becoming waterlogged and unable to process effluent. In Wichita's flat terrain, even small grading corrections can significantly extend the life of a drain field.
Can a new septic system be installed on any property in Sedgwick County?
Not always. Sedgwick County requires a soil evaluation and site plan before approving a new septic installation. Soil type, lot size, and proximity to water sources all factor into whether a conventional or alternative system design is required.
How long does a drain field replacement take?
Most residential drain field replacements take one to three days depending on the size of the system and soil conditions. The excavation, pipe installation, and gravel backfill all need to happen in sequence, and final grading is done once everything is in place.
Will excavation work destroy my yard?
There will be some disruption during the project, but a good contractor will minimize the disturbance and regrade the disturbed area once the work is done. Grass will typically regrow within one growing season if the soil is properly restored.
Is it worth fixing a failing drain field, or should I replace the whole system?
It depends on the age of the system and the extent of the failure. If the tank is still in good shape and only part of the drain field has failed, a targeted repair or partial replacement may be cost-effective. A full system assessment will give you the clearest picture before committing to either option.
