Last week Keenan Inc. installed a Stream Discharge Septic System. This system included a 1,250 gallon duel compartment septic tank, a peat biofilter tank, and an ultraviolet disinfection unit. After the effluent passes through this system, the treated water discharges into a stream on the property.

Tight Spots, Addition Excavation and Footer



Keenan Inc has become accustom to doing tight jobs where minimal disturbance is a necessity. It is important to have the right equipment for the job. On this particular job we brought in a little smaller equipment than would normally be used because there was tight access to the location of the new addition.



Here, we were contracted to excavate and pour foundation footing for a breakfast room addition. The property has beautiful gardens and mature landscaping. Care was taken in minimizing the disturbance to the lawn, especially before the winter, when getting new grass seed to germinate is out of the question.

Outdoor Living Space


Over the last 4 months we have created an outdoor living space for one of our clients. The bulk of the construction was in multiple boulder retaining walls to create a large outdoor living area, and multiple tiers around the property to create yard space.
The focal point of the patio and outdoor living space is this fireplace built into the irregular boulder wall.

Outdoor Fireplace


The boulder retaining wall is part of a custom masonry and hardscaping project. In this project, we are creating outdoor living space in an otherwise limited area. The boulder retaining wall is both a landscape feature and functional retaining wall, retaining the earth where we have excavated into a hillside.
Below are pictures of the early stages of the construction of an outdoor fireplace. The fireplace will be incorporated in the boulder wall and will help give the feel of a true outdoor living area.

Drip Irrigation Septic System




Keenan Construction and Excavating, Inc. is currently installing a drip irrigation septic system.
The drip irrigation system offers a unique method for subsurface distribution of wastewater. The installation of a drip irrigation system has less site impact than conventional septic systems. Drip systems are viable alternatives to unsightly mound systems and spray irrigation systems.
The pictures show the laterals, and Paul making the loop connections at the ends of the laterals.
