Your Hawaiian Acres Cesspool & Septic Crew

Hawaiian Acres is one of the big upland Puna subdivisions, a grid of three-acre lots stretching from Highway 11 near Kurtistown back into the ohia and hapuu fern forest toward Mountain View, laid out on numbered and lettered roads that are mostly unpaved and maintained by the people who live on them. It is high, cool and wet, well over a hundred inches of rain a year, and it has a strong off-grid streak: catchment water everywhere, solar on many roofs, and homes that range from plantation-style houses to cabins at the end of a half-mile cinder driveway. Every one is on a cesspool or a septic system of its own. The ground is young lava under forest floor, and the deeper roads see the most rain and the slowest drainage, so a cesspool back on Road 8 behaves differently from one near the highway. Hawaiian Acres also has a lot of newer owners who bought cheap acreage and are now sorting out what a cesspool is, how the state deadline affects them, and whether the pit behind the house will pass an inspection when they sell. We pump, inspect, convert and repair in Hawaiian Acres regularly, and we know the roads. Tell us the road, how to find the lot, and what the system is doing, and we will come ready and quote it straight.

Common Cesspool & Septic Issues in Hawaiian Acres

The cesspool and septic problems we see most around here, and how we handle them.

Long cinder driveways and soft roads

A pump truck is heavy, and the back roads of Hawaiian Acres get soft after a week of rain. We ask about the road and the driveway when you call, bring enough hose to park where the ground is solid, and still reach the pit.

Upland rain and slow-draining pits

At this elevation the rain is relentless and the forest floor holds it. Cesspools back in the subdivision refill from the ground and stay wet. Keeping them pumped on a schedule keeps a buffer in the pit; when a pit stops draining altogether, we say so and talk through what comes next.

Cheap acreage, unknown systems

Many Hawaiian Acres lots sold with a house and no paperwork on the cesspool. We locate the pit, pump it, read the walls and the refill, and give the new owner a straight picture of its condition and what the state deadline means for it.

Cesspool & Septic Service in Hawaiian Acres: FAQs

Do you really come all the way back into Hawaiian Acres?
Yes, to the back roads too. We know the numbered and lettered roads and we ask about conditions before we roll, so the truck shows up ready. Tell us the road and the lot and how the driveway sits.
My cesspool is near my catchment tank and my neighbor is close. Can I still convert?
In most cases, yes. Three acres gives room to meet the setbacks from both catchment tanks and the property lines, and the design accounts for them from the start. The bed is built on fill over the lava. We walk the lot and quote the system that fits.
How often should an upland Puna cesspool be pumped?
Every two to three years for a full-time household, because the wet ground gives the pit little help draining. Longer if the home is used part-time. If you cannot remember the last time, schedule it and we will set an interval based on what we find.
