There are standard or conventional alternatives to the gravel filled drain field that often reduce the price, but may not be a good choice depending on other circumstances.
"Alternative Systems", usually used in this part of Texas, are always MORE expensive, but only for the initial installation, once you consider that an inappropriate system would have to be replaced soon because of failure, in those locations that require alternative systems.
N-Tex Construction is licensed and expert in Septic Systems of ALL kinds.
We don't want to put in a system that isn't going to work, that looks bad on us.
We don't want to bid your job with an expensive system when a less expensive one will work just as well, that causes us to loose the bid.
What we DO want to do is your site evaluation and site survey, determine which systems could LEGALLY be installed, then discuss your options with you so that you feel like you've made the best decision and get the best system for your money.
Factors influencing final costs include:

They STILL MUST:
If the home owner decides to install their own system and they decide to HIRE anyone to assist, the person they hire MUST be licensed as a State of Texas Installer for On Site Sewage Facilties.
