Septic & soil evaluations
Every septic system starts with the soil. Deer Run tests your land, designs a system that fits it, and prepares the permit paperwork for the health department.
Septic design & permitting
A system designed for your soil, your lot, and your household — with the application prepared for county review.
- Conventional system design
- Permit application preparation
- Designs for new builds and replacements
Septic installation
The same company that evaluates and designs your system can install it — one call from first test pit to final inspection.
- New system installation
- Repair and replacement systems
- Site work and grading included
Private well permits
Well permit applications prepared with the same property details as your septic file — new wells and replacements.
- New private well permits
- Replacement well permits
- Coordinated with your septic plans
How a septic evaluation works
Four steps from first call to a permit-ready design.
1
Send your property info
Fill out the perc test form below with your address, parcel ID, and project details — it gathers what the application needs.
2
Site visit & soil work
Our crew walks the site, digs test pits, and evaluates the soil profile, slope, and limiting depths.
3
Design & application
Your system is designed around the soil findings and the application is prepared for the health department.
4
Permit & installation
Once permitted, Deer Run can install the system and handle the final inspection paperwork.
Private well permits
Building where there's no public water? A private well needs a permit too — and the application asks for much of the same property information as your septic file. Deer Run prepares well permit applications for new construction, replacement wells, and properties pairing a well with a new septic system.
- New well and replacement well applications
- Household, livestock, and other intended uses
- Well and septic paperwork coordinated together
- Waterline trenching & installation after the well is drilled
Farm water systems
Water where your livestock need it. Deer Run installs complete farm water systems — underground waterlines trenched out to the pasture, and automatic waterers set on concrete pads with gravel surrounds that stand up to hooves, mud, and weather.
- Livestock waterers set on concrete pads
- Underground waterline trenching & installation
- Tie-ins to wells and existing farm water lines
