Is your Buckhorn property on private septic or community sewer?
The Regional District operates a Buckhorn community sewer system. Check which wastewater arrangement serves your parcel before requesting a septic quote. For a private system, Tim can discuss tank excavation, field installation or replacement and repairs to identified buried septic pipes.
Send the correct system plan for a Buckhorn replacement
Establish whether the work concerns an individual tank and field, a private connection or shared infrastructure. Include the connection points and any provider’s findings. If a private septic installation is required, the design should identify the excavation footprint and what happens to the old system. A nearby community sewer does not establish the status of every address.
What should you send for a Buckhorn septic quote?
- Confirmation of the wastewater provider or private septic arrangement.
- The new design and the components being removed or retained.
- Machine access, material deliveries and finished ground requirements.
What septic work does Tim do in Buckhorn?
Tim installs new and replacement systems and handles repairs that require his excavator: buried pipes, tanks, fields, distribution boxes, access and decommissioning work. He can also discuss test pits and private lagoon earthworks. The property assessment and design establish the appropriate system; gravity, pressure and mound layouts are construction options to discuss from the actual plan.

Pumping, routine pump and alarm servicing, electrical work and line clearing need their own providers. Confirm the installation scope and the responsibilities of the designer and other trades with Tim.

Is my property within the 50 km service area?
The Buckhorn reference point is approximately 14.5 km from Prince George’s centre in a straight line. This measures a service radius, not driving distance. Community areas extend beyond a single point, so send your actual property location to confirm coverage, road access and mobilisation.
