Septic systems in Bethlehem
The City of Bethlehem itself is on public sewer, but the surrounding townships — Bethlehem Township, Hanover Township, Lower Saucon, and parts of Upper Saucon — have significant pockets of homes on private septic. Many are older properties where the septic system predates the surrounding development.
Bethlehem's housing stock skews older than the Valley average, and that shows up in the septic work. We see a lot of systems from the 1960s–80s: concrete tanks that have served well but need their baffles checked, drain fields that have quietly absorbed decades of use, and lids buried deep enough that every pump-out starts with archaeology. If that sounds like your place, ask us about riser installation — Bethlehem-area homeowners are some of our most enthusiastic converts.
Lower Saucon and the township edges also include newer construction on septic, often with advanced treatment units or pump systems that need periodic professional attention beyond a standard pump-out. We service those too.
