Ponding and over-saturated drainfield
As spring is rapidly approaching the summer season, Kothrade Sewer, Water & Excavating wants all homeowners to be highly aware of installing underground irrigation systems near their drainfields.
We recently had to do a repair when a homeowner noticed ponding on their drainfield. After having an onsite service call to determine the issue, Glen dug up the supply line to find that another company who had installed the irrigation line had pierced the drainfield supply line. Kothrade SWE easily made the repairs, and the drainfield is once again working correctly.
Please make sure to have drainfield supply lines clearly marked if you are having underground irrigation systems installed. If you have any questions or concerns, please call our office so one of our experienced staff can guide you through the process. We are only a phone call away at 763.498.8702!

Team Kothrade is off and running this season. Here are the pictures of the team setting tanks on April 20, 2016.
Well, we made it!
Spring!
Expecting a few more snowflakes here and there, but soon the trees will be budding and the flowers will be blooming. But most importantly….The end of Road Restrictions are rapidly approaching!!!!!
We are excited to start working on all the septic installations, excavations, septic tank pumpings and all of the multitude of other services we provide!
Let the season begin!

Today is designated as World Toilet Day – urging changes in both behavior and policy on issues ranging from enhancing water management to ending open-air defecation.
For us that live in the Midwest, perhaps it seems like an odd day; however 2.5 billion people do not have access to a clean and safe toilet!
