Septic systems

From a new installation to a careful repair, we start with what your property needs. A site assessment checks the soil and layout. A percolation test, or perc test, measures how fast the ground drains.

Septic tank pumping

Our own vacuum truck handles tank pump-outs for homeowners. We can also help locate the tank and inspect the lines with a camera.

Excavation and trucking

The same equipment takes on digging, trucking and seasonal work around your property or build.

Two generations.
Decades on PEI.
Family owned. Still hands-on.

Ray started the business and still runs equipment. Dave now owns it and has worked in it for over 25 years. We look for a repair before recommending a replacement, and we fit the work to what the property needs.
