Locate All Components of Your Septic System Before Landscaping

System Locating

May 22, 2025

Before starting any landscaping or construction project, it’s essential to know exactly where your septic system components are located. Missteps can lead to costly repairs and potential system failures.

Why Knowing Your Septic System’s Location Matters

Planning to add a home extension, install a pool, or build a guest house? It’s crucial to identify your septic system’s placement beforehand. Constructing over or near the system can cause significant damage and expensive repairs. For instance, if you’re considering building a wall between your front and backyard, laying pavers in your driveway, or designing a fountain with a concrete base, knowing the exact location of your septic system is vital. This knowledge helps you avoid costly mistakes and potential damage. Check out the Maricopa County Website for a helpful setback requirement chart. If you’re in Pinal County, refer to the Pinal County Website for their requirements.
