About Imrie Septic

Your Neighbours. Your Septic Partner.

We live here. We work here. And our homes are on septic systems too. We started Imrie Septic because this community deserves a septic company that shows up, tells the truth, and does the job right.

Your Complete Septic Partner

Drive about an hour north of Markham and Oshawa and you’ll find yourself in the middle of peaceful, rural and cottage living — some of the best Ontario has to offer. But when it comes to property services out here, your choices are limited. You need to be on a septic system and you simply need it to work. Unfortunately, most homeowners don’t really know how their system works, let alone how to maintain it. Which means this big system underground often becomes the source of big worries — the kind that can put a damper on rural living.

We know, because our homes are on septic systems too. The Imrie family has been designing and installing septic systems across Kawartha Lakes for over 30 years. It’s what we were raised on. We’ve evaluated the soil, pulled the permits, built the systems, and maintained them long after the install was done. Over the years, we’ve seen what works, what fails, and what keeps homeowners up at night — and we built Imrie Septic to be the answer.

We believe your septic system shouldn’t be a big burden. It definitely shouldn’t keep you from fully enjoying this beautiful place. That’s why we’re here — to take away the anxiety of living on a septic system by being your complete septic partner. We’ll deal with the big emergencies quickly, fix small issues before they get bigger, and make sure your system is cared for so it runs better, longer. But you’ll never be sold something you don’t need. You’ll get our honest assessment and clear options so you can make the best decision for what’s next.

In 2020, we expanded our service by acquiring Bullock Septic — a trusted name in pumping for over 60 years — bringing their loyal customer base and local reputation into the Imrie family. Today, we handle everything under one roof: pumping, maintenance, design, installation, permits, and inspections. One company, one relationship. That’s what “complete septic partner” means.

How We Work

We believe your septic system shouldn’t be a source of stress. It should just work — quietly, reliably, in the background while you enjoy your property. When it needs attention, you should have a partner who shows up quickly, explains what’s going on in plain language, and gives you honest options.

That’s what we’ve built Imrie Septic to be. We don’t sell you services you don’t need. We don’t create urgency where it doesn’t exist. And we don’t start work without your approval and a clear understanding of what it will cost. If your system is fine, we’ll tell you it’s fine. If it needs work, we’ll explain why, what your options are, and what we’d recommend — then let you decide.

We also believe in building things right the first time. Every system we design uses the simplest, most reliable approach the site allows. We favour gravity-fed systems over pumps, conventional treatment over complex technology, and easy-access designs that make future maintenance straightforward. Simple systems last longer, cost less to maintain, and cause fewer problems. That’s good for you and good for us.

Our Promises

We show up. When your system has a problem, it’s never at a convenient time. We promise to be there when you need us — including 24/7 emergency response.

We tell the truth. You’ll get our honest assessment, not a sales pitch. If you don’t need a pump-out, we’ll tell you. If your system needs replacing, we’ll explain why.

We keep it simple. From system design to maintenance plans, we choose the approach that’s reliable, cost-effective, and easy to care for long-term.

We handle everything. Pumping, installation, design, permits, inspections, maintenance — one company, one relationship. That’s what “complete septic partner” means.

Imrie Septic is led by the Imrie family — licensed designers and installers with over 30 years of hands-on experience in Kawartha Lakes.

Together, we hold multiple Ontario Building Code design and installation licenses — which means we can evaluate your site, design your system, build it, and maintain it. Most septic companies in our area can only do one or two of those things. We do all of it, under one roof.
