At Action Septic, we offer professional septic locating services for residential, commercial, and industrial properties throughout Kelowna, West Kelowna, Lake Country, Peachland, Joe Rich, and Westside Road. Knowing the exact location of your septic tank and components is critical for efficient maintenance, repairs, and system inspections. Whether you’re experiencing issues or preparing for a home sale, our locating service is a crucial first step in septic system management.

Why Septic Locating is Important

Septic systems are typically buried underground, and over time, property changes such as landscaping, renovations, or property transfers can obscure their location. Attempting to dig without knowing exactly where the tank or lines are can cause damage to the system or your yard.

Our locating services provide:

  • Accurate identification of septic tank, risers, and field lines
  • Prevention of unnecessary digging and property disruption
  • Essential insight for maintenance or septic pumping
  • Support for real estate inspections and renovations

How Our Septic Locating Works

We use a combination of technology and industry experience to pinpoint the location of your septic components. Our technicians are equipped with:

  • Electronic locators
  • Probes and rods for manual verification
  • Access to system records and permitting information where available

In many cases, we can locate the tank even when no accurate diagrams or maps exist. Once located, we mark the area and provide recommendations for ongoing accessibility, such as riser installation.

When to Call for Septic Locating Services

You may need professional septic locating services if:

  • You’re unsure of where your septic tank or field lines are

  • Installing risers to bring access points to ground level
