Why Hire Slagter?

Experience

In Dutch-European tradition, our president, John Slagter, was trained as both a Master Bricklayer and Carpenter in the prestigious Technische School te (of) Veendam in Gronigen Holland NL.  With European emphasis on excellence and expertise, John was a Master Builder of Luxury Custom Homes in the 1960s and 1970s.

During the ‘70s, John purchased his first excavation equipment and supplemented his building by growing his excavation business.  He hired his brother Albert in the early 1970s, who is still with him today.

In the 1980s, John transitioned to full-time excavating and his sons Peter, Rodney and Brian as well as his son-in-law Douglas Rankin.

Excellence

Slagter Construction is an Award-winning Ecoflo Installer.

Slagter is the # 1 installer of Ecoflo Peat Based Septic Systems in South Western Ontario.  We have been installing Ecoflo Septic Systems since 1996 and have installed over 400 septic systems all over Ontario.

We have learned the secrets of installing Ecoflo Septic Systems properly and are frequently called to help other installers and engineers when they run stuck.

We know that cutting corners on such things as not using engineered sand can cause expensive call-backs, and since 1998, we only use the highest quality engineered sand available locally.

No cheap pit-run sand for us!
