If you have a rural property with “off mains” sewage in or around the village of Box SN13 – close to the city of Bath – you must abide by the General Binding rules. This is a set of legal requirements that set minimum standards for the discharge of effluent from your private drainage system – usually a septic tank – to prevent it from polluting surface water.
If your septic tank in Box – or the surrounding areas like Alcombe, Blue Vein, Chapel Plaister, Ditteridge, Henley, Kingsdown, Middlehill, Wadswick or Rudhoe – does not comply you could be subject to enforcement action by the Environment Agency.
The best way to find out whether your septic tank in Box is up to par is to have it professionally surveyed and inspected by experts like The Drain Specialists.
We know everything there is to know about septic tanks and sewage treatment plants in Box, so not only will we be able to find out if your system is compliant, but if it isn’t we’ll be able to suggest viable solutions.
We could, for instance, install a drainage field or secondary treatment unit in Box, or replace your septic tank in Box with a sewage treatment plant.
