The Wilkinson’s have over 55 years experience manufacturing quality pre-cast concrete products. In 1994, Wilkinson’s started a new facility in Riverside, Iowa, offering the only septic tank in Iowa to meet ASTM structure and design at that time.

3" to 4" thick walls on household tanks. 5" to 6" thickness on large commercial tanks.

5000 PSI. High cement content to resist corrosion. 2.5" to 4" slump.

We carry all your septic field bed supplies. Specializing in the highest quality siphon dosing or pump tanks.

Water tight one piece design. Our 500, 1000, 1250, 1500, 1750, are seamless one piece tanks, SEALED AT PLANT. Installed quickly. The partition is monolithically cast right into outer walls and tied together with rebar. These tanks are STRONG. Our high quality forms produce the heaviest tanks on the market; most other manufacturers do not have the crane capacity to meet Wilkinson’s standards. Large tanks are 2500, 3600, 4800, 6000, 10,000gal.

Ken Wilkinson, owner and manager, was raised in the concrete business. He worked with the DNR as a concrete and tank design consultant when the Iowa Wastewater codes were upgraded in 1999 with Chapter 69. Specifiers are encouraged to contact Ken to confirm how their requirements can be met with the latest and most efficient product.
