Sewage Treatment Plants

Is your septic tank compliant with the new regulations effective from January 2020?

If your residential home or commercial premises is not attached to the main sewer line, you are very likely to have a septic tank system attached to your home or building. Septic tanks handle wastewater collection, treatment and disposal in place of it running off to the sewer line.

Septic tank systems require being installed underground to hold wastewater and a soil absorption system to disperse clean wastewater back to the land. Often, it can be difficult to predict the cost of a septic tank installation and there is a very good reason for that. There are many different factors that can affect the actual cost of having a septic tank installed – including tank size and material, permitting requirements, soil makeup and installation charges, which can all affect the cost of a septic system.

Making sure it is compliant

The installation of an off mains drainage tank such as a septic tank, sewage treatment plant or cesspit can be daunting and complex.

There are rules and regulations in place around off mains drainage, relating to all aspects of installation - from the type of tank that is appropriate for a property, through to exactly where it can be installed, and what kind of ground conditions are required.

It’s crucial to ensure that any septic tank installation is compliant with all regulations, as failure to comply could mean that the installation wouldn’t be approved by Building Control - or worse, you could leave yourself open to prosecution.

We use our expertise to ensure that the systems installed at the projects that we manage are compliant with all applicable legislation.
