The management of waste water has undergone some important developments over the past decade. No longer is it permissible to 'throw in' in a septic field and 'hope for the best'. Each installation requires the services of a certified installer. Kerry is certified as a Septic Tank Installer, has a Sewage Management Certificate and a Wastewater Management Cerfiticate. This company has installed a great many septic systems in the Parksville and Nanoose Bay area. The following images are just some of those showing the kind of work done by Kerry BobCat and his team of workers.
