Septic Installation Planned Around Your Property
ASRE installs septic tanks and systems for residential and commercial properties in Allentown and the Lehigh Valley. Whether you need a new system or a replacement tank, start with the property conditions and the work you need. Existing system information, access and the proposed installation area help define the work before excavation and placement are planned.
A tank replacement and a new septic system require different conversations. Bring any existing plans, system records and information about changes to the property's use when you request an estimate. Discuss which components need installation, what remains in place and how equipment will reach the work area. Permits, site testing and inspections may apply; confirm the requirements locally before setting the installation sequence. Call 610-797-3212 for a free estimate and explain whether the project serves a home or a commercial property.

Plan Your Tank and System Installation
Discuss these installation needs and planning details with ASRE so the estimate identifies the work your property requires.
- New septic tank installation for residential or commercial properties
- Septic system installation planned around the property's intended use
- Septic tank replacement planned with existing components identified beforehand
- Review of available system records and proposed installation locations
- Equipment access discussion for the tank and installation area
- Excavation and placement planning tied to the agreed system installation plan
- Local permit, testing and inspection requirements confirmed before installation
- Backfill and surface restoration limits discussed in the estimate
How it works
From System Information to Installation Planning
- 01
Identify the installation you need
Tell ASRE whether you are planning a new septic system, replacing a tank or working from an existing installation plan. Describe the building's use and any known system concerns. Bring available records so the plan separates new installation work from components that can stay.
- 02
Review the property and access
Discuss the proposed work area, existing system locations and the route equipment would use to reach them. Identify nearby pavement, buildings and planted areas you want to retain. Access affects excavation and tank placement, so the estimate is built around your actual property layout.
- 03
Confirm local requirements and plans
Permits, testing and inspections may apply to septic installation. Confirm the local requirements and determine what plans or approvals are needed before work is scheduled. Discuss who is responsible for each item and when it must be available. That gives the installation a clear starting point.
- 04
Plan the components and excavation work
Review which tank and system components belong in the installation and which existing elements remain. Discuss the excavation area, placement access and limits of backfill and surface restoration. Those boundaries go into the estimate so you know exactly what the installation covers.
- 05
Installation and Next Steps
ASRE installs the septic tank or system you agreed on. Discuss any required inspection sequence before covering the work, along with the backfill and restoration included in the project. At completion, ask about the installation records, responsibilities for ongoing system care and how the one-year workmanship warranty applies to the work performed.

For New Systems and Replacement Tanks
Homeowners planning septic installation need an installation plan suited to the property and the system being installed. Commercial owners should also describe building use and access needs before discussing the work. ASRE provides residential and commercial septic installation across Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton, Emmaus, Macungie, Whitehall and the Lehigh Valley. A replacement tank often fits into the existing system, and ASRE will tell you what needs replacing and what can stay. Bring the information you have and identify what still needs confirmation. Customers can work directly with owner Joseph Tomanik III to discuss installation boundaries, property access and the next steps needed for a free estimate.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to the questions we hear most. Need something else? Give us a call.
Does ASRE install both septic tanks and complete systems?
ASRE provides septic tank and system installation for residential and commercial properties. Start by identifying whether you need a new system or a replacement tank within an existing system. Share any plans and records you have, then discuss which components belong in the estimate. The estimate names the installation work and its boundaries.
What should I have ready for a septic installation estimate?
Have the property address, the building's use and a description of the installation you need. Existing system plans, available records and any proposed layout are useful starting points. Tell ASRE about access restrictions and surfaces near the work area. If some information is missing, identify it during the discussion so the next steps are clear before excavation or tank placement is planned for your property.
Will my septic installation need permits or testing?
Permits, site testing and inspections may apply. Confirm the requirements with the local municipality or appropriate local authority for your property and proposed system. Discuss what plans or approvals must be available, who will obtain them and how inspections affect the sequence of work.
Does replacing a septic tank mean replacing the entire system?
A tank replacement and a full system installation involve different work. The condition and requirements of the existing system need review before deciding what remains and what needs replacement. Bring available records and describe the reason for the project. ASRE identifies the components included in the estimate, along with excavation and restoration limits, so you know everything included before work starts.
How should I plan property access and surface restoration?
Discuss how equipment will reach the installation area and identify pavement, gardens or other surfaces along that route. Tank placement and excavation need space, and in some cases site preparation comes first. The access route belongs in the planning conversation. Ask which backfill and restoration work is included and where it stops. If a walkway or other finished surface needs separate work, ASRE can include it in the same plan.
Does ASRE offer estimates and a workmanship warranty?
ASRE offers free estimates and a one-year workmanship warranty. Call 610-797-3212 with the property address and describe whether you need a new septic system or a replacement tank. Ask how the warranty applies to the agreed installation and what ongoing care remains the owner's responsibility. ASRE is locally owned and was established in Allentown in 2001; customers can work directly with the owner when discussing the project.
