Drainage investigations →For off-mains drainage
Tell us if there is a septic tank, treatment plant or drainage field. The system needs its own agreed scope; installation and replacement enquiries are welcome.

Useful questions before arranging work.
Can you inspect every drain?
The agreed scope, accessible chambers and pipe condition determine what can be inspected. Restricted or abandoned runs are recorded as limitations and may need further investigation.
Can repairs be quoted afterwards?
Where the evidence supports a repair, we can explain suitable options and discuss a quotation. Additional work needs agreement from the authorised person.
Do you empty tanks or carry out general plumbing?
No. Our work focuses on drainage surveys, clearance, repairs and installations. Tank emptying requires a tanker contractor; general plumbing needs a plumber.
