Septic System Installation & Repair in Hawaiian Paradise Park, HI

Installation & Repair in Hawaiian Paradise Park

New construction in East Hawaii goes in on a septic system, not a cesspool, and plenty of the systems already in the ground are reaching the age where parts fail. We install and repair septic systems across Hilo, Puna and the Hamakua coast. On the installation side we handle new homes and ohana units, the rebuilds that followed the 2018 eruption in lower Puna, and replacement systems for homes whose old cesspool or field has given out: the site evaluation, the Department of Health permit, the excavation in lava, the tank, the leach field or seepage bed on imported fill, and the inspection. On the repair side we fix what actually breaks: cracked lids and collapsed baffles, sewer lines crushed by rock settlement or invaded by roots, distribution boxes that send everything to one line, failed effluent pumps on lots that lift uphill, and leach fields that have gone wet. We find the real problem before we dig, because excavating lava to fix the wrong thing is an expensive mistake.

Cesspool and septic service in Hawaiian Paradise Park

Hawaiian Paradise Park, HPP to everyone who lives there, is one of the largest subdivisions in the state: a grid of one-acre lots running from Highway 130 down to the sea cliffs at Kaloli Point, with Paradise Drive, Makuu Drive and Kaloli Drive as its spines and dozens of numbered avenues between them. The roads are private and maintained by the owners’ association, nearly every house is on rainwater catchment, and nearly every house is on its own wastewater system: cesspools on the older homes, septic systems on the newer builds and the conversions. The land is flat pahoehoe and a‘a with little soil, and the lower avenues near the coast sit close enough to sea level that a cesspool there can take on groundwater and fill from below. HPP has grown fast with mainland buyers drawn to an acre of land near Hilo, which means a steady run of home sales, each wanting a pump-out and an inspection, and a lot of new owners who are learning what a cesspool is and what the state deadline means for it. We pump, inspect, convert and repair systems up and down the avenues every week. Tell us the avenue and the cross street and what the system is doing, and we will quote it straight.
