Your Somers Septic Crew

Somers sits at the very north end of Flathead Lake on Somers Bay, about ten minutes south of Kalispell on Highway 93, an old rail and sawmill town that has become a quiet lakeside community of year-round homes, cabins and a growing number of new houses on the slopes above the bay. Some of the town is served by a local sewer district; the homes along the lakeshore east and west of the bay, the places up the hill toward Highway 82 and the farm and acreage ground north toward the Lower Valley mostly run on their own septic systems. Somers septic is a mix of lake and valley floor. Near the bay the ground is low and wet, with groundwater close to the surface in spring and a drain field that has to make do with little dry soil. Up the hill the soil is cobbly glacial gravel that drains fast. And because Somers has long been a place people retire to or keep a cabin in, we see a lot of older systems, often undersized, often with no records, on properties now changing hands to buyers who want an inspection before closing. We pump, repair, inspect and install septic systems in and around Somers. Tell us where the tank is and what is going on and we will give you an honest answer and a real price.

Common Septic Issues in Somers

The septic problems we see most around here, and how we handle them.

Low, wet ground near the bay

The ground around Somers Bay sits low, and the water table rises close to the surface every spring. A drain field there is working in wet soil for weeks at a time, so keeping solids out of it with on-schedule pumping is the single best thing an owner can do.

Older cabins that became year-round homes

Plenty of Somers places started as summer cabins with a small tank and a short field and are now lived in full-time. Those systems are undersized for the load. We pump them more often, inspect the field honestly, and tell you when it is time to plan a replacement.

Sewer or septic, and which lots are which

Part of Somers is on a sewer district and part is not, and the line between them is not obvious from the street. If you have no sewer charge on a bill and do not know where your tank is, we locate it and tell you what you have.

Septic Service in Somers: FAQs

Do you cover Somers?
Yes, and it is a short run from our Kalispell yard. We cover Somers Bay, the lakeshore on both sides of town, the hill above Highway 93 and the Lower Valley ground north along Highway 82. Call or text and we can usually get to you quickly.
How do I know whether my Somers home is on the sewer district?
Look for a sewer charge on your utility bill. If there is none, you are on a private septic system. We can locate the tank and confirm what you have, which is worth knowing before you sell or add a bedroom.
My cabin was built in the sixties. Can the old system keep going?
Often, with care. We pump it on a shorter interval, check the baffles and the tank for cracks, and watch the field each visit. When it is time to plan a replacement we will tell you plainly, and we handle the county permit when that day comes.
