MY HOUSE IS NOT ON MAINS DRAINAGE ( CESSPIT?)

If you are not connected to the main sewer then you will have one of the follows drainage systems;-

1/. A septic tank and soakaway (see The operation of a septic tank)

2/. A sewage treatment plant (see What is a sewage treatment plant)

3/. A sealed cesspool (see Cesspool)

The term "cesspit" is often used to discribe one of the above systems and it is important to clarify which system you have. The common term cesspit is often refered to a tank in the garden.

We can arrange to visit any site and survey the drainage. We can then advise you about the operation and condition of the system, what is your "cesspit", does it need a repair?

Need to pump to the main sewer (see pump stations).
