Questions

Septic tank & sewage treatment FAQs

Straight answers to what people ask us most. If your question is not here, call — advice is free.

How much does it cost to empty a septic tank in Derbyshire?

It depends on the volume removed, your location and how easily the tanker can reach the tank. Local domestic jobs around Chesterfield usually sit in the low hundreds. Give us your postcode and rough tank size and we will give you a straight price. More on septic tank emptying.

How often should a septic tank be emptied?

About once a year for a typical household, and more often for large families, holiday lets or anywhere with heavy use. Sewage treatment plants are normally de-sludged every 6 to 12 months. Leaving it too long pushes solids into the drainage field, which is a far more expensive repair.

Do I need to replace my septic tank under the current regulations?

Only if it discharges to a watercourse — a ditch, stream or surface water drain. Those systems must be replaced with a sewage treatment plant or redirected to a proper drainage field, and it is commonly picked up when a property is sold. A septic tank discharging to a working drainage field is generally still allowed. More on installations and replacements.

Do you service all makes of sewage treatment plant?

Yes — all makes and models, including older units the manufacturer no longer supports. We repair air pumps, blowers, motors, gears and gearboxes, sub pumps, controls and alarms. More on servicing and repairs.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and take emergency call-outs for blocked drains, overflowing tanks and failed pumps across Derbyshire, Sheffield, Nottinghamshire and Yorkshire. Call 07884 111 641. More on our 24/7 emergency call-out page.
