Septic tank install - why $5K
I looked around and found that guys with hoes in my area all take
about $5K USD for installation of a 1000 gallon septic tank w. leech field and this does NOT include the percolation report. The tank itself costs about a grand $1K, so let's deduct that. The job takes about 1-2 days. Let's say 2 days = 16 hours. $4K comes out to $250/ hour. That does not sound right. I am sure competitors would bring the price down. In that case my question is what other costs are involved? Someone told me transporting the material on-site and gravel costs need to be considered. Can somebody break down where does the $5 actually get distributed for a typical installation of a septic tank with a leech field? |
