Site clearing, grading, trenching, and land prep handled by an experienced local team with the right equipment for any job — big or small.
Call Now — (931) 334-5580A-OK Septic & Excavation isn't just septic — we bring full excavation capabilities to residential and commercial projects across Middle Tennessee. From clearing a homesite to grading a driveway to digging utility trenches, we have the equipment and the experience to get it done efficiently and correctly.
As a veteran-owned business, we bring the same discipline and work ethic to every excavation job that we bring to our septic work. We show up when we say we will, we do what we say we'll do, and we leave your property cleaner than we found it.
When you hire A-OK for a septic installation, you don't need a separate excavation contractor — we handle both. This saves you coordination headaches, scheduling conflicts, and markup from subcontractors. One call, one crew, one invoice.
And when you hire us for excavation work, you have a septic expert on-site who can identify any system concerns before they become expensive surprises.
We work on residential properties, small farms, and light commercial sites throughout Maury County, Marshall County, Lawrence County, Giles County, and Williamson County. If you're not sure whether we can handle your project, call us — we're happy to take a look.
Excavation pricing depends on the scope, soil conditions, and equipment needed. We provide quotes after seeing the job — because guessing leads to surprises for both of us. We'd rather give you an accurate number upfront than low-ball and pad the invoice later.
Yes — that's actually one of our advantages. We can dig, install, and backfill all in one project with one crew. No subcontractors, no coordination issues.
Yes. We can haul away excess material or spread it on-site, depending on what works best for your project. We'll discuss this when we quote the job.
We have equipment suited for a range of site conditions. Call us and describe the situation — we'll let you know what's feasible and how we'd approach it.
It depends on the scope and location of the work. We'll walk you through what's required for your specific project and handle any permit applications needed.
It varies by season and project size. Call us to check availability — we often have openings sooner than you'd expect. The earlier you call, the more scheduling flexibility you have.
Before any excavation project, there are things every property owner should know — especially around buried utilities and permitting. These resources can save you from a dangerous or costly mistake:
Tennessee law requires you to call 811 before digging to have underground utilities marked. Hitting a gas line, power line, or water main is dangerous and expensive. We handle this on your behalf — but it's important for homeowners to understand the requirement.
OSHA's excavation safety requirements explain why professional excavators are trained and equipped to work safely in trenches and around buried hazards. This is why DIY excavation beyond basic digging is genuinely dangerous.
Excavating near an existing septic system requires care and, in some cases, permits. TDEC's onsite sewage program outlines what's required to protect your system during construction or land prep work.
Larger construction and grading projects may trigger stormwater permit requirements under the Clean Water Act. The EPA's guide helps property owners understand when this applies to their project.
Tell us about your project and we'll come take a look. No obligation, no pressure — just an honest quote from a local team that does the work right.
