Septic Repairs? In Need of a New tank or Leech Field? Cesspool Expired? Herring is an EXPERT in Septic System Installation.

Simple repairs, replacements, upgrades or new installation of septic systems. Herring makes it worry-free.

Jimmy Herring started his septic business in 1973. At that time, he began installing septic systems, cesspools and dry wells. Recently Jason Herring was called about a failing dry well. When the records were pulled up, it turned out to be a past client, Jason was proud to learn that Jimmy had installed it back in 1974. There hadn't been an issue since...until a truck drove over it over 45 years later.


Herring stands behind our construction work because we are experts in doing it right the first time. 


Herring customers can be sure that when they hire HSS (Herring Sanitation Services) the job will be done correctly. We follow your engineered plans or design a system for you that will meet with Board of Health approval. New installations are often designed by an engineer. These plans must be adhered to exactly as drawn and periodically inspected throughout the installation process. If an engineer is not and/or does not need to be involved, Herring Sanitation will design the perfect septic system for every application. We help you from the deep hole test right through to the final inspect. Plus, when Herring installs your septic system you won't have to worry about it for years to come. But don't be silly, you still can't ignore regular septic maintenance like pumping.


Septic systems can be a simple septic tank, distribution box and leech fields. But today, some septic systems include complex components such as SoilAir systems, Nayadic units and pump up systems. Some sites require curtain drains, retaining walls, and fill. Herring is prepared to handle all stages of construction including these components. 



Let Herring come and evaluate your septic needs. We offer free estimates and are willing to sit down and explain what is required by your engineer, building department or board of health. If you have a set of engineer plans, we are happy to sit down with you so you understand what is being required by the plans that have been submitted to the local authorities. From simple septic repair jobs to complex septic system installations, Herring Sanitation will handle it all.

Professional Septic Inspections

A simple septic system inspection can save homeowners a great deal of time and money. This service is most commonly used by home buyers before purchasing a new home. A properly conducted septic inspection ensures that the system is working properly at the time of inspection and reduces the chances of a dangerous and/or costly surprise to the future homeowner.


A visual septic inspection may be able to determine the status of a septic system beyond what the average homeowner is able to conclude. We ask that there be running water in the house so we can observe the flow through the tank and distribution system. The inspection consists of a visual scan of the inside of the tank to make sure that the water level is proper and that liquids are flowing into the tank and out to the leach fields without restriction. We check to make sure that the baffles are present and intact. The scum and sludge levels are observed to ensure the tank has been properly maintained in the past. We also walk around the property to check for any soft or wet spots that would suggest the leach fields are not working properly.



Other inspection services include a visual inspection of the pipes, distribution box, and leach fields using a camera to further evaluate the status of the distribution system. Visit our Septic Inspections page to find out more about the Septic Inspection options available for you.
