In Our Business a Straight Flush Beats a Full House
Wray's Septic Tank & Development Co. has been providing septic tank service across Southwest Michigan for nearly 60 years. That's decades of experience in installations, pump-outs, excavation, and everything in between. Our team brings over 100 years of combined experience in the field to every job.
We're a family-owned operation serving homeowners, builders, and realtors in Allegan, Barry, Kalamazoo, and Van Buren counties. When you call Wray's, you're talking to people who know this region's soil, its county health departments, and what it takes to do the job right.
Family-owned since day one. Our team has worked with the same communities for decades. Our reputation is built on showing up, doing the work right, and being easy to reach when questions come up. We'll meet with you as many times as it takes to make sure you understand the process before we break ground.
From straightforward replacements to complex new septic installations, our crews have done it all. We've worked through every type of soil condition and permit challenge Southwest Michigan throws at a job site. And we know how to adapt when the unexpected shows up during a dig. Wray's installed the first fusion-type septic system in the country, and that same drive to get it right has defined how we work ever since.
One call covers it all. We pull permits, excavate, install, grade, and clean up, so you're not coordinating between multiple contractors. From your first phone call to the final grade, Wray's manages the whole job.
We work hand in hand with the health departments in all four counties we serve. Every county has its own requirements, and knowing those details – permit timelines, soil standards, inspection criteria – keeps your project on schedule instead of stuck in revision.
Local builders and realtors have been counting on Wray's for new construction septic installations and pre-sale inspections for years. We understand what's at stake when a closing or a build schedule depends on a system being installed correctly and on time.
Talk to our team about your project — no pressure, just answers.
Whether you're putting in a system on new construction or replacing a failed one, we manage the full installation, from permit to final grade. We bring in good soil when the existing conditions won't support a long-lasting system. Because cutting corners there shortens the life of the whole installation.

Most tanks need to be pumped every 3 to 5 years, depending on household size and usage. Regular maintenance is always cheaper than an emergency repair. We'll help you stay on schedule.

Basement digs, site prep, driveways, and smaller commercial excavation. We have the equipment and the experience to do it cleanly.
Need debris hauled? Topsoil, sand, or gravel delivered? We have the equipment to move what needs moving.
Licensed and insured for demolition work. Whatever needs to come down, we'll make quick work of it.
New septic installations typically run about two months from contract to completed system. We start with a phone call, pull your permits from the health department, assess the property, and excavate, set, and connect the system. Our team solves the complications that come up mid-job – soil surprises, permit adjustments, coordination with county inspectors – so you don't have to.
