FAQ
How much does a perc test cost?
A perc test typically runs a few hundred to about a thousand dollars, depending on your state, the number of test holes required, and site access. (⚠️ Dummy figure — 待真實行情替換。)
What is a perc test?
A percolation (“perc”) test measures how fast water drains through your soil, which determines whether — and how large — a septic drain field must be.
Does soil type change the cost?
Yes. Slower-draining soils such as clay need a larger drain field, which raises the full system cost even when the test itself costs about the same.
