Daytona Beach has welcomed visitors since Mathias Day founded the city on the Halifax River in 1870, and today it remains one of Florida's most iconic destinations. From the historic beachside neighborhoods where vehicles still drive on hard-packed sand to the bustling commercial corridors near Daytona International Speedway, Centre L Services understands the unique underground infrastructure demands of this coastal community.
Properties in Daytona Beach face challenges you won't find inland. Beachside homes deal with salt air corrosion, sandy soils that drain almost too quickly, and proximity to tidal waters that affect groundwater levels. Mainland neighborhoods west of the Halifax River contend with the Nova Canal drainage system, which has historically caused flooding during heavy rainfall events. Whether you're maintaining a vintage cottage near Lilian Place or operating a restaurant on International Speedway Boulevard, your septic and sewer systems need to handle these coastal conditions.
As a principal city in the Deltona-Daytona Beach-Ormond Beach metropolitan area, Daytona Beach's infrastructure serves not just 72,000+ residents but millions of annual visitors during Speedweeks, Bike Week, Biketoberfest, and countless other events. We provide the responsive, professional service that keeps both residential and commercial properties functioning smoothly year-round.
We understand how salt air, tidal influences, and sandy soils affect septic and sewer systems in beachside and riverfront locations.
During Speedweeks, Bike Week, and major events, we offer priority scheduling so your business handles the surge in visitors.
Many Daytona Beach properties are in Special Flood Hazard Areas. We design and maintain systems that meet FEMA and local requirements.
Septic emergencies don't wait for business hours. We're available around the clock for Daytona Beach residents and businesses.


Unique to Daytona Beach, FL
Properties east of the Halifax River present some of the most challenging conditions for septic systems in Central Florida. The sandy soils drain rapidly, which sounds ideal until you realize this means wastewater may not receive adequate treatment before reaching groundwater. Combined with high water tables that rise with tidal cycles and setback requirements from the ocean and intracoastal waterway, beachside lots often require advanced treatment systems, mound configurations, or aerobic units to function properly and meet Volusia County regulations.
The FDOT's Nova Canal runs along the east side of Nova Road and has been identified as a major contributor to flooding in Daytona Beach. During the May 2009 flood event, 790 structures were damaged when the canal overtopped and backed up through drainage outfalls. For properties in this flood-prone corridor, septic systems can become saturated during heavy rains, leading to backups and system failures. We help homeowners evaluate their risk and implement solutions like elevated tanks, alarm systems, and strategic landscaping to protect their systems.
Daytona Beach's coastal location makes it vulnerable to tropical storms and hurricanes. Storm surge can flood entire neighborhoods, inundating septic tanks with saltwater, sand, and debris. After a flooding event, systems should never be used until they've been inspected and pumped. We provide rapid post-storm assessments to determine whether your system survived intact or needs repairs, and we coordinate with insurance adjusters to document damage.
The ocean air that makes Daytona Beach so appealing also accelerates corrosion on metal components. Older beachside homes with cast iron sewer pipes often develop pinhole leaks and internal scaling that restricts flow. Lift station pumps, electrical components, and even concrete tanks can deteriorate faster in the salt-laden atmosphere. Our trenchless pipelining creates a corrosion-resistant interior surface, and we recommend marine-grade components for coastal replacements.
Restaurants, hotels, and entertainment venues near the Speedway and along the beachfront experience dramatic spikes in usage during Daytona's major events. A grease trap or septic system that handles normal traffic just fine may overflow when visitor counts multiply during Speedweeks or Bike Week. We help commercial property owners prepare with pre-event pump-outs and maintenance, plus on-call service during peak periods to address any issues before they become emergencies.
