East Hampton’s regulations are stricter than most places, and they change. When I/A systems became mandatory for new installations, we were already certified on approved technologies because we stay ahead of local requirements. We know which systems work best in East Hampton soil conditions and which ones cause problems down the road.
Unlike companies that subcontract the work, our certified team handles every aspect of your installation. From initial site evaluation through final inspection, you work with the same experienced professionals who’ve completed hundreds of installations throughout the Hamptons area.
We start with a thorough property evaluation to determine the right system size and placement for your specific needs and East Hampton’s setback requirements. This includes soil percolation testing and site assessment to ensure your system performs optimally for decades.
Next, we handle all permit applications and approvals, coordinating directly with Suffolk County Health Services and East Hampton’s building department. We also help you apply for available rebates and can work through the town’s approved vendor payment program to minimize your upfront costs.
Installation involves excavating the system area, installing your new I/A cesspool with proper drainage components, and connecting all plumbing according to approved plans. We complete required inspections at each phase and provide you with comprehensive documentation for warranty coverage and future maintenance requirements.
Ready to get started?
Every new cesspool installation in East Hampton requires an I/A system that reduces nitrogen levels to 19 mg/l or less. This isn’t negotiable – it’s mandated by local law for all new installations and major renovations.
Your complete installation includes the I/A treatment system, excavation and proper backfill, all plumbing connections, electrical components for system operation, and access risers for future maintenance. We also provide all system documentation required by Suffolk County Health Services.
East Hampton residents have access to substantial financial assistance for these installations. Town rebates reach up to $20,000 for qualifying residents, with additional state and county programs potentially covering total system costs. We navigate these programs for you and can work directly with the town’s payment system to reduce your out-of-pocket expenses significantly.
You need a building permit from East Hampton’s Code Enforcement Office and approval from Suffolk County Health Services. The process also requires compliance with wetland setbacks, zoning requirements, and I/A system specifications.
We handle the entire permit process, including site plans, soil percolation testing, and coordination with both town and county agencies. Timeline typically runs 2-4 weeks depending on your property’s specific conditions and whether additional environmental approvals are needed.
Permit fees vary based on system size and complexity, but we provide exact costs upfront during your initial consultation. No surprises during the approval process, and we keep you informed of progress every step of the way.
Complete I/A cesspool installation typically ranges from $20,000 to $35,000, depending on system size, site conditions, and specific nitrogen-reduction technology required. However, available rebates can reduce your actual costs significantly.
East Hampton residents may qualify for up to $20,000 in town rebates, plus additional state and county incentives totaling $30,000 or more. We help you apply for all available programs and can work directly with the town’s approved vendor payment system.
Final costs depend on your property’s specific requirements, including excavation complexity, electrical work needed, and the type of I/A system that works best for your home’s wastewater output and soil conditions.
I/A systems actively treat wastewater to remove nitrogen before it enters the ground, while traditional cesspools simply collect and drain untreated waste. East Hampton mandates I/A systems for all new installations to protect local groundwater.
These systems use advanced treatment processes like aeration, biological treatment, or advanced filtration to reduce nitrogen levels to 19 mg/l or less. Traditional cesspools can’t meet these environmental standards and are no longer permitted for new construction.
I/A systems require electricity and periodic maintenance, but they’re engineered for long-term reliability with manufacturer warranties. The environmental protection and regulatory compliance make them the only viable option for new cesspool installation in East Hampton.
Actual installation typically takes 2-3 days once permits are approved and materials are on-site. However, the complete process from initial consultation to final inspection usually requires 4-6 weeks total timeline.
Permit approval represents the longest phase, typically 2-4 weeks depending on your property’s complexity and any additional environmental approvals needed. We expedite this by submitting complete applications and maintaining direct relationships with local approval agencies.
Weather and site conditions can affect installation timing, particularly during excavation phases. We provide realistic schedules upfront and maintain communication about any delays that might occur during approval or installation phases.
