With a full suite of services from septic repair to mini excavation, Digger Dale Contracting is your go-to provider for all things below ground.

Septic Repair

Septic issues can escalate quickly if left untreated. That's why we act fast to identify and fix problems like clogged lines, broken pipes, or failed drain fields.

Septic maintenance

Routine maintenance is the key to keeping your septic system running efficiently and avoiding costly failures. We offer scheduled services to clean, inspect, and fine-tune every component.

Septic Inspection

Whether you're buying a home or managing a property, a septic inspection can give you peace of mind. Our detailed inspections go beyond surface-level checks, using advanced tools and expert knowledge to assess the health and function of your system.

Septic installation

Installing a new septic system is a major project, and you need a contractor you can trust. Digger Dale Contracting handles the full process from planning to final inspection, ensuring your installation meets all local and provincial regulations.

Septic Design

Before a shovel hits the ground, a proper septic design is essential. We design systems that are engineered for efficiency, compliance, and longevity.

Drainage Services

Our drainage systems are built to handle Victoria’s rainy seasons and prevent flooding, pooling, and erosion. Every job is done with precision and long-term protection in mind.

Testimonials

Alan Hanna

Victoria B.C.

We had a challenging landscape for our septic replacement. Dale navigated the work with expertise, while taking care not to damage any established tress and shrubs. Dale and Mike did impeccable work. Dale did exactly what he said he would do and the work was quoted accurately - no surprises. We would hire Digger Dale again in a heartbeat. Excellent work. Very satisfied!

I have used Digger Dale Contracting for excavation work over the past 25 years. Dale built us a new septic field (adding an extra tank), remedied a failed drainage system and replaced our broken underground water main. He did not cut corners and did each job the right way. I have had no problems with any of the work he completed. He worked efficiently & his price is better than most. Highly recommended.
