What our customers say
UKDP have been handling the drainage side of a water leak claim on my home insurance, and they have made a stressful situation a good deal easier. I was kept informed at every stage and never left wondering what was happening next. The engineer who came out was genuinely nice, polite and thorough. He did a proper job, took the time to explain everything as he went, and is a credit to the company. Jenny in the office deserves a mention too. She was quick to answer every email and nothing seemed too much trouble. I would happily use them again and recommend them to anyone dealing with a drainage problem through their insurer.
Thank you so much to Rob, Ash, Paul, Graham and Henry, such an amazingly efficient team. They arrived destroyed, replaced and finished to a better standard than we had before. They took one and a half days to put a new sewage treatment plant in and leave it looking like new and so tidy. Materials arrived when they were needed so there was no time wasting. A lovely, diligent and professional team.
I had a really good service from UKDP from the start of the process through to the end, easy to contact and available, covered all areas of the issue including the Environment Agency and Building control. The contractors used were polite and professional so all good. I'm very pleased with UKDP and would be happy to recommend them.
FAQs
Ask our teamHow often should a septic tank be emptied in Hampshire?
At least once a year, or as often as the manufacturer recommends. In Hampshire's chalk valleys, underground water can stay high for months after a wet winter, so book emptying before winter to keep solids out of the soakaway.
Does home insurance cover septic tank replacement in Hampshire?
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 Hampshire?
Under the general binding rules, a septic tank must not drain straight into a river, stream or ditch; if yours does, it needs upgrading to the mains sewer, a drainage field or a sewage treatment plant. You may also need a permit near drinking-water sources or protected wildlife sites, such as the River Avon. We'll tell you which applies.
Who deals with off-mains drainage problems in Hampshire?
If your home isn't on the mains, the septic tank or treatment plant is yours to look after. Southern Water, Thames Water and Wessex Water look after the public sewers in different parts of the county, and UKDP handles emptying, repairs, surveys and septic tank installation in Hampshire.
What are the signs of septic tank failure?
Slow drains, bad smells, gurgling pipes, sewage backing up and boggy ground over the drainage field. A wet winter can push underground water into tanks and pipes, so the tank itself isn't always the problem, and a survey shows which.
Can I get emergency septic tank repair near me in Hampshire?
Yes. Our depot at Ford, near Arundel, covers Hampshire, 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.
