Why Choose Us?

Why a Professional Septic Tank Survey is Essential for Your Scottish Home

A septic tank survey isn't just about ticking a box; it's a vital part of protecting your investment. If you're looking to buy a property with a private drainage system, a pre-purchase survey identifies any existing issues before you commit, potentially saving you thousands in unexpected repairs. For current homeowners, a survey can diagnose the cause of slow drains, foul odours, or damp patches around your system, stopping a small problem from becoming a costly emergency. It also helps ensure your system complies with current SEPA regulations here in Scotland, avoiding legal complications and environmental concerns. We provide the expert insight you need.

Spotting the Signs: When to Consider a Septic Tank Inspection

Beyond property transactions, several tell-tale signs suggest your septic tank might need a professional inspection. Are you noticing persistent unpleasant odours, either indoors or outside near your tank? Do your toilets flush slowly, or do you hear gurgling noises from your drains? Perhaps you've spotted lush, unusually green grass or damp, soggy patches above your soakaway area, even in dry weather. These are all indicators of a potential problem within your septic system. Don't wait for a complete failure; our rapid response team can provide an expert diagnosis and prevent bigger issues.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Septic Tank Surveys Questions

Answers to common questions about our Septic Tank Surveys

What exactly does a septic tank survey involve?

Our survey is a deep dive into the health of your entire off-mains drainage system. It starts with locating the tank and assessing its general condition. We then typically empty the tank to check its internal structure for any damage. The most crucial part is often the CCTV drain survey, where we feed a camera into the inlet and outlet pipes to check for blockages, cracks, or collapses. Finally, we assess the soakaway or drainage field to ensure it’s functioning correctly and dispersing water as it should.

Is a survey necessary when buying a house with a septic tank?

While not always a legal requirement, it is highly recommended. A standard mortgage valuation or home survey will not cover the septic tank in any real detail. A failed septic tank system can cost thousands of pounds to repair or replace. A pre-purchase survey from our expert team identifies these potential costs before you commit, protecting your investment and giving you a powerful negotiating tool.

What are the common signs that my septic tank has a problem?

There are several tell-tale signs that your septic tank or its drainage field needs attention. Look out for bad odours around the tank or soakaway area, slow-draining toilets and sinks inside the house, gurgling sounds from the pipework, or unusually lush, green grass over the drainage field. If you notice any of these, it’s time to call in the experts for a proper inspection.

What happens if your survey discovers a problem?

If our survey uncovers any issues, our job isn't done. We provide you with a detailed, easy-to-understand report explaining the problem, complete with the CCTV footage. More importantly, we provide clear, practical solutions. As a full-service drainage company, we can provide quotes for any necessary repairs, from high-pressure water jetting to clear a blockage to 'no-dig' patch lining for damaged pipes, or even a full system replacement. We provide the complete solution to get your system back in perfect working order.
