Certified septic operation and maintenance services for Oregon homeowners with advanced treatment systems and regulated septic systems.
Certain septic systems in Oregon are required by law to be maintained under an ongoing service agreement with a DEQ-certified maintenance provider. These systems include pumps, filters, and advanced treatment components that need regular inspection, testing, and reporting to ensure they remain compliant and operating properly.
Leonardo Excavation provides professional septic operation and maintenance (O&M) services for homeowners throughout Deschutes County and Northern Klamath County, including Bend, Redmond, Sisters, La Pine, Sunriver, Tumalo, Terrebonne, Alfalfa, Crescent Lake, Odell Lake, Two Rivers North, Diamond Lake, Beaver Marsh, and surrounding communities.
In Oregon, maintenance contracts are typically required for systems that include pumps, alarms, filters, or a control panel. If your system has any of these components, there is a strong likelihood that ongoing maintenance and reporting are required.
