Fauquier County, VA Septic System Repair
Nestled in the picturesque landscape of Delaplane, Virginia, lies a farm with a house that whispers tales from the 1800s. Imagine stepping back in time, surrounded by the rich history of a bygone era. But with every cherished relic comes the challenge of upkeep, and this farm is no exception, especially when it comes to its old septic system.
We’re pretty sure the system hails from the early 70s since there are no health department records to confirm. Our little time travel via inspection unveiled a scene straight out of an archaeological dig – cast iron septic tank tees, corroded and blocked, as if they were relics of the past. The distribution box was no better, showcasing a sludge build-up that screamed “neglect.”
But fear not! We’re on a mission to bring this historical gem into the 21st century, starting with the septic system. Our game plan? A complete overhaul. We’re talking new septic tank tees, a gravity main line, header lines, and a distribution box. It’s like giving the farm a new lease on life.
Once we dig up the system, we’ll take a closer look at the drainfield lateral lines to see if they’re still in fighting shape. And here’s the cool part – we’re introducing a remediator, or an aeration unit, to the septic tank. This nifty device transforms lazy bacteria into aerobic superheroes that munch away at the sludge, clearing up the lines in no time.
Of course, we’re doing things by the book. A Fauquier County Health Department Repair Permit is on our to-do list to get the green light for our repairs.
This farm in Delaplane isn’t just a piece of property; it’s a slice of history. And we’re here to make sure it stands proud, with a septic system that keeps the property functioning. Stay tuned as we help breathe new life into this charming old farm, one repair at a time.
