ABOUT THIS SERVICE

Septic Tank Replacement in Southwest Florida.

Septic tank replacement is what you do when the tank itself has failed: cracked concrete, corroded steel walls, collapsed baffles, or a tank that is simply too small for the household it has been serving. Replacement involves pumping the existing tank dry, breaking it out or pulling it whole, setting a new code-compliant tank, and reconnecting inlet and outlet plumbing.

Most replacement jobs in SWFL involve concrete tanks from the 1980s and early 1990s that have aged out, or steel tanks that should have been replaced two decades ago. We size the replacement to your current household, not your neighbor's, and we install it with proper risers so future pumping does not require an excavator.

  • County permit and inspection coordination.
  • Excavation, breakout or removal of the old tank, and lawful disposal.
  • New tank set, leveled, and connected to inlet and outlet lines.
  • Code-compliant risers installed so future access is at grade.
  • Backfill, final grade, county inspection, and written warranty.

Timeline

Most tank replacements run 1 to 3 working days from arrival to final inspection, plus 1 to 3 weeks for permit issuance.

Warranty

Written workmanship warranty on the install. Tank manufacturer warranty passed through to the owner.

Permits

Cracked walls, collapsed baffles, undersized capacity, or a steel tank past its service life are replacement scenarios. A working tank with one bad baffle or a settled lid is usually a repair candidate. We diagnose before quoting.

Had a saturated drain field that the previous owner clearly ignored for years. Got 3 quotes and Torque was not the cheapest but they actually came out, looked at the system, and explained what they would do. Two guys, three days of work, and the yard looks better than before they got here. No surprises on the final bill. Will use them again.

Our septic alarm started going off at 10pm on a Saturday in McGregor. Called and a real person picked up. Tech was at the house just after midnight, found the issue with the pump, had it fixed by morning. Wife and I were impressed they didn't try to upsell us anything we didn't need. Honest work.
