What our customers say

★★★★★

I would like to thank you regarding the claim you handled for me regarding my Septic Tank. You kept me fully informed of progress with my Insurance Company. The replacement tank was installed last month. I am so relieved that the work is now complete. I would be grateful if you could also pass on my thanks to Kevin. I think he attended three times and he was always very professional and reassuring.

Mr B
UKDP customer, Frodsham
★★★★★

We needed a survey on the septic tank prior to us buying a house. UKDP solutions were professional and so helpful regarding this matter. We appreciated their guidance and efficiency the report was completed in one day.

How often should a septic tank be emptied in Cheshire?

At least once a year, or as often as the manufacturer recommends. On the old salt ground around Northwich, that visit is also a chance to spot cracks or settling early.

Does home insurance cover septic tank replacement in Cheshire?

Often, yes. Many buildings insurance policies cover sudden damage to septic tanks and drains, but not wear and tear. We check your policy and can help with the claim.

What are the General Binding Rules for septic tanks in Cheshire?

Under the general binding rules, a septic tank must not drain straight into a river, stream or ditch, and if yours does, you need to upgrade to the mains sewer, a drainage field or a treatment plant. A permit may be needed near drinking-water sources or protected wildlife sites, such as the Midland Meres and Mosses. We'll tell you which applies.

Who deals with off-mains drainage problems in Cheshire?

United Utilities and the other water companies look after the public sewers. If your home isn't on the mains, your septic tank or treatment plant is yours to look after, and UKDP handles emptying, repairs, surveys and replacements across Cheshire, from Frodsham to Macclesfield.

What are the signs of septic tank failure?

Slow drains, bad smells, gurgling pipes, sewage backing up and boggy ground over the drainage field. Around the old saltfield, a cracked or sunken pipe can cause the same signs, so a camera survey is worth doing before anything is dug up.

Can I get emergency septic tank repair near me in Cheshire?

Yes. We cover Cheshire from our Birmingham Business Park depot at Solihull Parkway, and our engineers come to you. Call us on 0800 028 9903.

How much does a septic tank inspection cost near me?

A septic tank inspection costs £399 including VAT. Emptying, where needed, is charged separately.
