Resolve Drainage Problems With Septic Tank Surveys

When a problem occurs with your septic tank, soakaway or sewage treatment plant, it is important the problem is resolved as soon as possible. The best way to get to the root of the problem and resolve the issue is to conduct a septic tank survey. Using state of the art CCTV equipment, we can view hard to reach areas of your drainage system, show you the cause of your septic tank problem and therefore diagnose and resolve your drainage problem.

Septic Tank Maintenance

However, septic tank surveys aren’t just for resolving septic tank problems. They are also a vital part of septic tank maintenance. As septic tanks are hidden underground, problems can often go amiss before it is too late. A septic tank survey integrated as part of your drainage maintenance plan can detect issues, allowing them to be resolved quickly saving you money and long term drainage issues.

Septic Tank Survey FAQs

How do I notice a septic tank issue?

If you notice that grass is dying unusually fast in the area, or if the ground seems unusually saturated (i.e. the rainfall could not have caused it) or if there are unusually strong odours coming from the area, you need to call us right away.

Issues with septic tanks will not go away if you ignore them and they can cause irreparable damage to surrounding properties if left untreated.

What should I do if I notice issues with my septic tank?

Simply call us and we will be more than happy to help with your problem. During the call we will take some details about the reasons for your call and confirm by email the proposed date and time. You should also make arrangements to have the tank emptied.

What do septic tank surveys involve?

During septic tank surveys, our knowledgeable engineer will inspect all covers, the tank, make a visual check of its condition and if the pipes are blocked. We advise the use of our high pressure jetting machines to ensure free passage of the camera.

Following this, we use the information gathered to diagnose the issue and provide advice, alongside a detailed report of the issues, suggested solutions and quotation. We can also provide the CCTV footage to visually explain the issues and their location. This can be used in cases where local authorities and insurance companies are involved as evidence and to prove liability.
