Great Service and workmanship I would use nobody else to service my grease and septic tanks
Sawkill Environmental is a septic system and excavation contractor based in Milford, PA. Most of our work is new septic system installation on rural and lake community lots with no public sewer. We also repair failing systems, dig foundations, cut trenches, clear lots and grade sites. We are licensed and insured, PA HIC #PA225040.
Sawkill Environmental was formed by Jeff Barwick after he moved to Pike County. Before that he owned and ran a large excavation company in the New York City area. That company handled major commercial projects, including airport work. The ground here is different: shallow bedrock, glacial till and buried boulders.
On a septic job we start by digging the soil test pits for the township sewage enforcement officer. The design and the permit go through that office, plus a soil scientist or engineer where required. We install the tank, distribution box and absorption area to the approved design, then finish the grading. Repairs on failing systems run the same way, with the work cut down to the part that failed.
We run our own excavators and equipment, so the dig, the rock and the backfill stay with one company. The same machines handle foundation and utility digs, drainage, land clearing, grading and retaining walls. We work about 25 miles out from Milford, into Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York. Estimates are free, so call or text (973) 552-8580 and we will come look at the site.
Milford, PA The test pits, the tank, the distribution box and the absorption area are all our work. The backfill, the grading and the drainage around the system stay with the same company.

Shallow sandstone and shale ledge, glacial till and buried boulders sit under many lots in Pike County. We plan the dig around what is under the topsoil, then bring the machine that can move it.

We dig the soil test pits. The township sewage enforcement officer runs the probes and the percolation tests, and approves the design. In New Jersey and New York, the county health department issues the permit.
Once the permit is issued, we set the tank and run the lines to the distribution box. Then we build the absorption area to the approved design. Conventional in-ground beds and elevated sand mounds are both common on lots around here.
The system gets inspected before anything is covered. In Pennsylvania the township sewage enforcement officer does that inspection. Then we backfill, grade the ground back out and clean up the site.
