Expert Septic Tank Installation In Budleigh Salterton, Devon

Understanding the rules around septic tanks and off-mains drainage can feel a bit daunting, especially with the 2020 Environment Agency General Binding Rules. These regulations mean many older septic tanks that discharge directly to a watercourse now need upgrading or replacing with a sewage treatment plant. We’re here to simplify this for you. Our experienced engineers, based locally in Exeter, Exmouth, and Torquay, will conduct a thorough site assessment, including vital soakaway percolation tests, to determine the most suitable and compliant system for your specific property. We’ll guide you through the pros and cons of traditional septic tanks versus modern wastewater treatment plants, making sure you make an informed decision that meets both your needs and all legal requirements. This expert advice covers everything from sizing the system correctly to ensuring proper foul and surface water drainage separation.

At Drain 2 Flow Devon, we handle the entire process of installing new septic systems and wastewater treatment solutions. This includes:

• New Septic Tank Installations: For properties without mains sewer access, we design and install durable, efficient septic tanks that collect and partially treat domestic wastewater.
• Wastewater Treatment Plant Installations: Often the preferred choice for compliance and environmental performance, these systems offer a higher level of treatment before discharge, providing cleaner effluent.
• System Upgrades & Replacements: If your existing septic tank is failing, non-compliant, or simply too old, we can expertly replace it with a modern, efficient alternative.
• Package Pump Stations: For sites with challenging ground levels or where gravity drainage isn't feasible, we install reliable package pump stations to move wastewater efficiently.
• Percolation Testing & Design: Accurate testing is the first step to a successful system. We perform detailed percolation tests to design the optimal soakaway system for your ground conditions.
• Sewer Connections: In some cases, connecting to the public sewer might become viable. We can assess this and manage the connection process if it's the right solution for you.
  We work diligently to ensure every installation adheres strictly to building regulations and environmental guidelines, providing you with peace of mind.
