Septic Systems done right in Durham

BC Brown General Engineering has handled septic work across Durham and Butte County since 1999. Durham is BC Brown's hometown, a tight-knit farming community of almond and walnut orchards between Chico and Gridley, and that local knowledge shapes how we approach every job here.

On the heavy valley soils around Durham, percolation is the whole design question. Tight clay drains slowly, so the leach field has to be sized right, and where soils are poor we install engineered or pressure-distribution systems that meet code instead of failing in a few years.

Durham is right in our own backyard, since our yard is on Goodspeed Street in Durham, so we mobilize crews and equipment there regularly and keep our response times short. We pull the septic permits through the Butte County Environmental Health Division, handle the perc testing and design coordination, and see the job through final inspection so you are not chasing paperwork.

What goes into septic systems in Durham

  • Perc and soil-profile testing
  • Tank and leach field sized to the soil

Durham · Common Questions

Septic Systems FAQs.

Do I need a septic system in Durham?
Most properties around Durham are beyond municipal sewer, so a private septic system is required. We test the soil, design a system that fits your lot, and install it to Butte County code.
How does the perc test work?
A percolation and soil-profile test shows how fast your ground drains, which sets the size and type of leach field. We run the test, submit it to the Butte County Environmental Health Division, and design the system around the results.
Do you handle the septic permit in Butte County?
Yes. We pull the permit through the Butte County Environmental Health Division, coordinate the design, install the tank and field, and meet the inspector for final sign-off.
