Tell us about the lot.

As soon as your builder has a date. Spring and early summer fill first. Indiana 811 needs two full working days before any dig, and we file that ticket as part of the job.

It depends on the job. Septic permits come from the county health department after a soil evaluation and a design; Fort Wayne sewer taps are permitted through City Utilities; the house itself needs a building permit from the county or city. Tell us the job and we will say who files what.

It depends on the soil. A conventional system and a mound or pressure-distribution system are very different jobs, and the soil evaluation decides which one you need. We quote after the design exists; before that we can only give a range on the phone.

Call us. Fort Wayne sewer taps must be made by a City-licensed tap contractor, and DeWald is listed by City Utilities as one. We make the tap, run the lateral to the house, have it inspected, and take the old septic tank out of service the way the county requires.

Below the frost line. The Indiana Residential Code sets it by county; northern Indiana counties call for 36 inches. Your building department confirms the number for your lot, and we dig for it.

We haul the spoils from our own jobs with our own trucks. Ask about bringing in stone or fill, or hauling on its own, and we will tell you if it fits the schedule.

Certificates of insurance go to your builder or lender on request. Ask when you call.

Our core work is basements, septic, sewer taps, trenching, dozing and site prep. For anything else, call and ask; if it is not something we do well, we will say so.
