Your Pahoa Cesspool & Septic Crew
Pahoa is the main street of lower Puna, an old plantation town of raised wooden storefronts where Highway 130 ends and the roads to Kalapana, Pohoiki and Kapoho begin. Everything around it is unsewered. Nanawale Estates and Leilani Estates to the east, Kalapana Seaview Estates toward the coast, the farm lots along Highway 132 and the homes scattered up the old lava flows all run on a cesspool or a septic system, and most of them catch their own rainwater. Lower Puna is also where the 2018 eruption rewrote the map: Leilani Estates lost whole streets, Kapoho and its tide pools are gone, and the rebuilding that followed went in on new septic systems because new construction cannot use a cesspool. That leaves Pahoa with the full spread of what we do, from pumping a forty-year-old pit behind a plantation house to installing a permitted system on a fresh lot, with home-sale inspections in between as the area turns over. The ground here is some of the youngest on the island, a mix of a‘a that drains like a sieve and pahoehoe that will not take a shovel, which shapes every conversion. We work Pahoa and the subdivisions around it every week. Tell us the subdivision and the road and we will give you a straight answer and a real price.

Common Cesspool & Septic Issues in Pahoa
The cesspool and septic problems we see most around here, and how we handle them.
Cesspools on a‘a and pahoehoe
Lower Puna lots sit on young lava. A cesspool drilled into loose a‘a drains fast until the sludge seals it; one in dense pahoehoe may never have drained well to begin with. We read the refill rate while pumping and tell you which kind you have and what it means for the pit’s future.
Rebuilding after the 2018 eruption
Homes rebuilt in and around Leilani Estates and elsewhere in lower Puna go in on septic systems, not cesspools, and they need the permit, the design and a leach field built on fill over new rock. We handle the installation and the inspection, and we pump those new tanks on schedule afterward.
Catchment tanks a few steps from the pit
Nearly every Pahoa-area home is on rainwater catchment, and on a smaller Nanawale or Seaview lot the tank and the cesspool can be close neighbors. We keep hoses and any spill clear of the tank, and we point out tight setbacks because an inspector will too.
