About.

Birch Street Excavating and Septic Service Inc. was bought by the current owners, Doug and Cyndi Belanger, in 1993. Both owners are from the Cornucopia/Bayfield area. The company has grown from one septic truck to three. Throughout the last 25 years of service, customer service has always been their main priority and it will continue that way. Doug and Cyndi have built a strong rapport with all of their customers and all of their customers trust them. Birch Streets customers have high expectations and are always highly satisfied with the work that is completed. Recently, the owners daughter and son-in-law, Brandon and Rachel, have moved back to the area and hope to one day take ownership. Within the last year, Birch Street has started to slowly build upon the current business and customer base. We are proud to say that our customers trust us and know that we are there for any of their septic or excavating needs. We pride ourselves in making sure that every job we leave has been done to the best of our ability.

Our Goal.

Our goal is to make sure that we leave each of our jobs knowing that our customers are going to be highly satisfied with our performance. We also want our customers to be fully educated on the importance of having their systems taken care of and understand why we do what we do. If our customers are knowledgeable, they are going to in return have longer lasting systems.  ​​
