Septic tank maintenance

February 7th, 2022

As a homeowner you will be familiar with maintaining your home every now and again, the same applies for your septic tank, should you have one.

Under new legislation, if your septic tank discharges to surface water, you will need to install a small sewage treatment plant which cleans the liquid before it goes into the River or Stream.

Your septic tank must be maintained properly, if the tank becomes a problem for other members of the Public, your Local Council or Authority, they can and will get involved, insisting that it will be properly cleaned. If you have a permit for your tank, this will also outline set conditions that you’ll have to make sure you meet.

To meet these conditions, GOV.UK guidance explains that you should make sure the septic tank is emptied at least once a year by a Registered Waste Carrier, here at John Wall Drainage Service we are able to provide this service for you.

Cesspit Maintenance

January 17th, 2022

Maintaining your cesspit is essential, not just for your Household but for your Local Council Authority too.

A common problem with cesspits is overflowing, which can cause issues regarding cracked walls and punctures, which may lead to external leaks. Unlike septic tanks, a cesspit has no rudimentary treatment system, which means that whatever goes in, must come out. Under the Public Health Act and Water Resources Act your Local Council Authority has a duty of to ensure your cesspit is in good working order, routine inspections are commonplace through out the UK.

Do’s and Do Not’s regarding Cesspit Maintenance

Never lift the lid of your cesspit to check levels,inside there are a whole lot of toxic nasty’s, make sure you have an alarm system fitted within your pit.

Cesspits are often located in areas where other sewage solutions are just not practical. Make sure your cesspit is located at least 15 metres away from any outbuilding and not less than 10 metres from any watercourse.

Do not place heavy objects above manhole covers.

Do not drive over any cesspit covers, especially old brick-built pits.
