OBC & Ministry Licensed Septic System Installations

Designing and installing a new septic system requires strict adherence to environmental regulations and local building codes. Drain Right Now provides full-scale septic system installations licensed through the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) and Ontario Building Code (OBC). Our installation services include:


  • Complete OBC-compliant septic system design and installation
  • Conventional gravity-fed septic tank and field installs
  • Raised filter bed and tertiary treatment system setups
  • Site evaluation, soil percolation, and mantle prep
  • Heavy equipment excavation and tank placement
  • Final building code inspection and permit sign-offs


Our licensed team manages the installation process from initial site excavation to final inspection. We install heavy-duty concrete and polyethylene septic tanks engineered to process household wastewater safely and efficiently.


Leaching Bed & Filter Bed Repairs

A failing leaching bed can cause slow indoor drains, foul sewage odors, and wet, swampy patches over your absorption field. We diagnose and repair damaged septic drain fields. Our leaching bed services include:


  • Septic leaching bed and tile field repairs
  • Distribution box (D-box) leveling and replacements
  • Biomat buildup clearing and pipe flushing
  • Crushed or root-choked header pipe replacements
  • Infiltrator chamber and stone bed restorations
  • Absorption field drainage optimization


Preparation for long-term wastewater absorption

We assess the structural integrity of your tile lines before recommending repairs. Our goal is to restore proper effluent distribution throughout your leaching bed, preventing environmental contamination and costly bed replacement.


Septic Tank Structural Repairs & Pipe Connections

Cracked tank walls, broken inlet/outlet baffles, or shifted main lines can cause groundwater to flood your tank or let solids escape into your leaching bed. Drain Right Now provides expert structural tank repairs. Our tank repair services include:


  • Concrete and poly septic tank crack repairs
  • Inlet and outlet baffle replacement
  • Effluent filter installation and maintenance
  • Riser pipe and gas-tight lid upgrades
  • House-to-tank pipe alignment and leak sealing
  • Tank-to-dosing-chamber connector line repairs


We replace worn or missing baffles and install sanitary effluent filters. Keeping solids inside the tank protects your expensive drain field from premature clogging and extends the operational lifespan of your entire septic system.


Septic Tank Riser & Lid Upgrades

Buried septic tank lids make routine inspection, filter cleaning, and maintenance difficult and destructive to your lawn. We install heavy-duty riser extensions and secure covers brought flush with or slightly above grade. Our riser services include:



  • Septic tank riser pipe extension installations
  • Green, lawn-level decorative cover installations
  • Varmint-proof and child-safe lockable lid setups
  • Watertight riser-to-tank seal replacements
  • Access point excavation and grade adjustments
  • Effluent filter access ports for easy cleaning


Installing access risers eliminates the need to dig up your yard every time your septic system requires inspection or servicing. Our watertight risers prevent surface water from entering your tank during heavy rain or spring thaw.


Ontario Building Code (OBC) Compliance Inspections

Whether you are purchasing a property, renovating a home, or addressing a municipal compliance order, an official septic evaluation is critical. Drain Right Now provides thorough, certified system inspections. Our inspection services include:


  • OBC and Ministry-compliant septic safety inspections
  • Real estate transaction septic evaluations
  • System capacity and hydraulic loading testing
  • Effluent level and sludge buildup diagnostics
  • Leaching bed camera inspections and line locating
  • Detailed technical inspection reporting


Evaluation for regulatory compliance and peace of mind

Our certified inspectors evaluate every component of your septic infrastructure, from house cleanout to leaching bed boundaries. We provide clear, documented reports confirming system health or outlining practical options for repair.

FAQs

  • What are the warning signs that my septic leaching bed is failing?

    Yes. Whether you purchased luxury fixtures from Moen, Riobel, Hansgrohe, or another brand independently, or prefer us to supply them, our plumbers provide certified, leak-free installation and testing for all makes and models.

  • Why is an effluent filter important for my septic tank?

    An effluent filter sits on the outlet baffle of your septic tank to catch suspended solids, hair, and debris before liquid enters your leaching bed. Cleaning or installing an effluent filter prevents solid waste from clogging your absorption field pipes, saving you thousands in bed replacement costs.

  • Do you provide septic tank pump-out truck services?

    No. We specialize strictly in the mechanical, structural, and excavation plumbing for septic systems—including OBC-licensed system installations, leaching bed repairs, baffle fixes, tank risers, and effluent pump hardware.
