Your septic project.
Talk to the operator.

What does Northern Septics do?
Tim focuses on septic installations and repair work done with his excavator, serving Prince George and properties within 50 km. Discuss your buried pipe, tank, field or lagoon project directly with him.
Do you provide septic tank pumping?
No. Tim only uses his excavator. Pump-outs, routine pump and alarm servicing, and electrical work are not advertised services.
Can I ask about a system if I do not know its type?
Yes. Tell Tim what you know, describe the problem and send any plans or photos you have. It is fine to say the layout is unknown.
How much does a septic installation cost?
Tim’s typical planning ranges are $25,000–$35,000 CAD for gravity fields, $35,000–$45,000 CAD for pressure systems and $45,000–$55,000 CAD for sand mounds. These are not fixed quotes. Confirm the scope, inclusions and applicable tax in your estimate.
Is 24-hour septic excavation service available?
Yes. Tim offers 24-hour service availability for septic installation and excavator-based repair work. Call to discuss the job and response timing; site attendance and construction timing are confirmed directly.
Can I upload my septic design for a quote?
Yes. Use the enquiry form to attach your completed design, site plan or photos. Tim receives the files by email and can discuss the installation scope and quote.
Can I book a septic inspection?
Installation work is Tim’s priority, and inspection availability can be very limited during the busy season. Ask him directly before planning around an inspection appointment.
