Our drainage services include the emptying of sewage treatment plants, pumping out of bilges on ships and trawlers, removal of waste oil and the emptying and cleaning of grease traps, interceptors, oil and fuel bunds and septic tank and cesspit cleaning.

A septic tank should typically be emptied at least one a year however, there are several factors that can vary this.  If the septic tank services a number of properties, it is probable that the tanks capacity will be used up quickly.  A septic tank decomposes solids through natural process called anaerobic and aerobic processes and the tank should never be completely emptied as this affects the performance of the tank.  A septic tank should never be used to dispose of items such as commercial chemicals, medicine’s, disposable nappies or feminine hygiene products as this will affect the tanks performance or cause irreparable to damage to the tank.

A cesspit is typically installed underground and constructed from materials such as fibreglass.  In older properties the cesspit may be built of brick.  As with a septic tank, there are no hard fast rules that determine the frequency of emptying.  A cesspit is a sealed system and most household liquid can be disposed of in the cesspit however, flammable liquids should never be discharged in to a cesspit.  A cesspit is typically used where septic tanks cannot be installed due to ground conditions and the potential of contamination to the local environment.

For catering establishments including pubs, restaurants and canteens, we provide a cleaning service for grease traps and separators.

Using our advanced CCTV system specifically for drains, we can provide you with drain surveys to establish issues being caused by your drains.  If you experience problems with your drains blocking up or backing up, one of our drain surveys can help to reveal the source of the problems with your drains.  CCTV drain surveys show the condition of the drainpipe without resorting to costly ground works.  Drain surveys can quickly establish what the problem is.  Drain surveys can reveal problems such as root ingress, pipe fractures and damage caused by slipped joints.  Surveys are cost-effective and we can provide copies of surveys undertaken on DVD so you can examine the damage yourself.
