OUR SEPTIC INSTALLATION SERVICES
We offer comprehensive expertise in residential septic systems, percolation tests, and eco-friendly wastewater treatment solutions.
Whether it is to develop a vacant lot in preparation for new construction or to upgrade an existing septic system that has become outdated, our team guides you toward the most sustainable solution that complies with current regulations. Our goal is to complete all the necessary steps to obtain municipal permits, prepare a detailed estimate, and carry out the work.
Our Septic Installation Services
Clear and professional support, from design to inspection.
Percolation test
Starting at $1,200 + tax
This study aims to analyze the site constraints and produce the plans and specifications for the various septic system installation options that may be feasible on your property. This study allows you to obtain a permit, receive contractor quotes, and proceed with the construction of the selected system. This study is mandatory in Quebec for properties not connected to a municipal sewer system.
Monitoring and compliance certification of a new septic system installation
Starting at $900 + tax
This complementary service to the percolation test is required in most municipalities in the region. It consists of monitoring the work during the construction of the septic system. A compliance certification report will then be prepared for the client and the municipality, including photos and an “as-built” plan documenting the completed work.
Pre-purchase inspection of an existing septic system
Starting at $650 + tax
Are you planning to purchase a pre-owned property with a septic system? Just like the building itself, it is wise to have the septic system inspected to ensure it is functioning properly, compliant with regulations, and to identify any necessary repairs or potential costs to anticipate.
Operational certification of an existing septic system
Starting at $650 + tax
Many municipalities require systems that are, for example, over 40 years old to be inspected in order to ensure they are still functional and non-polluting. Each municipality has its own specific requirements, but in general the goal is not to demonstrate regulatory compliance, but rather to confirm that the system is functional and environmentally safe.
Environmental Consulting Services
Starting at $100 + tax per hour
We can assist you with all information requests and advisory services, whether for permit applications, tendering processes, contract awarding, and more.
Septic System Installation Options
We guide you toward the best solution, based on your property and your goals.
Wastewater treatment
There are many wastewater treatment system options available. Several factors will influence the possible system choices for your property, such as slope, soil permeability and thickness before reaching an impermeable layer, available space to meet minimum setback requirements, number of bedrooms, and more. The percolation test will determine the viable options for your property and your home.
The Ministry of the Environment, the Fight Against Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks is responsible for regulations related to wastewater for isolated residential properties.

Please note
There are other nuances depending on the type of project.
Our experts will guide you toward the best option, taking into account regulations and the specific characteristics of your property. Some systems are no longer available on the market (Bio-B, Écobox, Constructed Wetland). If you own one of these systems, we will direct you toward modern, efficient, and compliant alternatives.
