Wastewater Gardens®
are an economical, practical, low maintenance, and sure-safe
solution to wastewater treatment. With Wastewater Gardens®
you can preserve and recycle your area’s natural
resources, while enhancing the beauty of your property’s
surroundings. There are no odors, and since people will
only see a beautiful, green garden, they can be placed
near entrances and gathering places. If you have limited
space on your site, existing gardens can be transformed
into Wastewater Gardens®.
The Wastewater Gardens® that we had installed
is not only a visual enhancement, but knowing what a
benefit to our earth it is, makes it so much more enjoyable
- truly the best improvement we’ve made to our
home.

 |
| - to determine whether a Wastewater
Gardens® system is suitable. We will review site and
building location plans and discuss location of the septic
tank, graywater recycling and Wastewater Gardens®
system. At this point we will ask you to fill out our
Project Preliminary Information Sheet. The information
provided on this form will help us to determine the size
needed for your system design. |
 |
- to review land contours, existing trees, drainage
areas and other factors that will affect the placement
and design of the systems. Shapes for the gardens will
be discussed at this time as well as types and varieties
of plants suitable to your taste.
|
 |
| - based on the results of the first two steps,
we will send you a job proposal including an initial price
quote and design specifications for your review and approval.
Upon approval, construction plans are discussed, a suitable
schedule is determined and then a final contract is signed. |
 |
Our expert construction team will stake out the area
for the systems, and after the cement is placed, a static
water test (to check for any leaks) is conducted. Piping,
pumps and any other special project needs are then installed
and gravel is placed in the systems.
|
 |
| - Depending upon which option you
choose, either we will plant the Wastewater Gardens®
or conduct a site visit to supervise the planting according
to the design and plan. You can choose from a wide selection
of special wetland plants and either work together with
our in-house Wastewater Gardens® landscape designer,
or create your own design. At this time we also deliver
the system’s Maintenance Manual, and teach you or
your staff the few simple procedures of how to operate
and maintain the Wastewater Gardens®. |
 |
You will receive a certification of authenticity
of your systems, and our Wastewater Gardens® team
is available to assist with any questions you have about
your systems at any time. |

Please contact us if
you have questions or to set up an appointment. |
