About Slater’s Compact Excavating

At Slater’s Compact Excavating, we believe every job should be done the proper way — clean, level, and built to last. Our work is based on modern standards, not outdated shortcuts, so you can count on reliable results that stand the test of time.

We’re certified in Onsite Wastewater Management through Alberta, a program that’s recognized across Canada for its advanced training and updated codes. Alberta’s certification focuses on up-to-date science, soil assessment, flow design, and treatment standards — giving us the tools to build stronger, longer-lasting septic systems. Manitoba’s codes haven’t kept pace in over two decades, so we bring the most current knowledge and best practices to every system we design, install, and repair here.

Along with septic work, we also handle excavation for underground hydro and water lines in rural areas across Manitoba. Our compact equipment allows for precise digging in tight spaces, ensuring clean trenches, accurate depth, and a professional finish.

Every project is approached with care — no rushed jobs, no corner-cutting. Just dependable work, completed to code, with the same attention to detail we’d expect on our own property.

Slater’s Compact Excavating is built on honesty, quality, and the belief that good work speaks for itself.
