Install a Septic Riser

In North Andover, MA and Avoid Future Hassles

If your septic tank lid is buried, you’re often paying extra before the pumping or inspection even starts. Many companies charge around $100 per foot to locate and dig up septic lids, so a tank buried just 2–3 feet can tack on $200–$300+ in digging fees on top of the actual service. And that doesn’t include what it costs to repair the lawn afterward.

Call Pilot Plumbing, Heating & Cooling for Septic Riser Installation in North Andover, MA, and put that money toward a permanent access solution instead. Since 2022, our A+ BBB-rated team has been known for clear communication, upfront pricing, and service that follows through.

Faster septic pumping and inspections without excavation

Frequently Asked Questions

About Our Septic Riser in North Andover, MA

How much does it cost to put risers on a septic tank?

Most of the price comes down to how deep your tank lid is and how many access points we’re adding risers to. A shallow tank with one access is obviously simpler than a deeper tank with multiple lids. The good news is this: a riser is usually a one-time upgrade that can save you from paying digging fees every time you need pumping or an inspection. If you call Pilot Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, we’ll look at your setup and give you a straight answer on what it’ll take and what it’ll cost before any work starts.

Are risers good for septic tanks?

Yes, and the reason is simple: they make maintenance realistic. When the lid is buried, people delay pumping because they don’t want the mess, the digging, or the extra charges. A riser brings access to ground level, so routine service is faster and cleaner. That usually leads to better upkeep, fewer “we should’ve done this sooner” emergencies, and less wear on the system over time. When we install risers at Pilot Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, we also make sure they’re sealed and secured properly, because a sloppy riser install can cause headaches later.

What’s the worst thing for a septic tank?

Two things: neglect and abuse. Neglect looks like skipping pumping for years, ignoring slow drains, or waiting until there’s an odor or backup. Abuse looks like flushing wipes, dumping grease, using harsh chemicals constantly, or overloading the system with too much water in a short period. And here’s the part most people don’t realize: buried access makes neglect easier, because every service visit becomes a project. A riser doesn’t “fix” a septic tank, but it removes one of the biggest barriers to keeping it healthy.

What size riser do I need for my septic tank?

There isn’t one universal size because it depends on the tank opening and the depth from the lid to ground level. The right riser has to match the lid opening cleanly and sit at the correct height so it’s stable, sealed, and safe to service. This is one of those areas where guessing can cost you, because a mismatched riser can leak, wobble, or be difficult to open later. When Pilot Plumbing, Heating & Cooling installs a riser, we measure what you actually have and fit the riser to the tank correctly.

Can I bury a septic tank riser?

You can, but it defeats the purpose. The whole point of a riser is easy access without digging, so burying it usually means you’re right back to excavation later. What many homeowners do instead is keep it at grade or slightly above grade, and use a lid that sits cleanly in the lawn so it’s not an eyesore. If you want it discreet, we can install it in a way that’s neat and easy to locate, while still doing what it’s supposed to do.
