Septic Tank Pumping
Our septic tank pumping service removes accumulated sludge and effluent to maintain system efficiency. We recommend pumping every 1-3 years depending on tank size and usage. Our selective emptying method preserves beneficial bacteria while preventing overflow risks. Commercial and residential clients benefit from our non-invasive techniques that leave properties undamaged.
Holding Tank Services
We provide complete holding tank pumping using the complete emptying method. Regular maintenance prevents clogs and backups, especially critical for commercial operations. Our team services tanks of all sizes, ensuring full waste removal while adhering to Alberta environmental regulations. Emergency services available for urgent overflow situations.

The day came alot sooner than expected to use these services, however I was just as impressed with the fast and efficient service. Operator Daryl went above and beyond to make sure my septic system was running properly as well as explaining to me what it was that he was doing, why he was doing it and how the system is supposed to work. Will continue to use this company in the future. Thank you so much for your professionalism and patience!

I will give Dagwood a 5 star for their customer service. Called around for quotes from some local companies. Dagwood gave us some insight on what to expect for pricing. Unfortunately they couldn't compete with our current septic service company (due to how far we are north of Onoway AB) they did give us a few other companies to try and what to expect for fair pricing. And that is valuable information. I will recommend Dagwood to any and all folks near the Spruce Grove Stony Plain area. Fantastic customer service.

Very simply an excellent experience. Daryl is very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. I called to get information about the pump-out service towards the end of winter and I experienced a high degree of courteousness and patience while I had everything explained to me very plainly. Pricing is upfront and competitive and scheduling was prompt. I will absolutely purchase services from this company in the future and I will recommend them to anyone looking for septic services.
