Our Beeston depot in Nottingham is about 3 miles from Nottingham city centre, and our engineers come to you.

We know the ground, the Severn Trent network and the rules there, so the job is designed right first time.

What our customers say
Our claim was handled with dilligence and professionalism by Rob (and team) throughout. The process was explained; we were kept informed regularly with timely follow ups; if we had a question Rob always got back to us and provided assistance or information as required. Expectations were thoroughly well managed. I would definitely use this service again. Thanks Ron and team!
Thank you for carrying out such a wonderful job. We were kept informed through out, our installers were brilliant, work carried out efficiently, no inconvenience, and site completely cleared on completion.
We are in the middle of a full home renovation and have had literally hundreds of tradesmen and workmen at the house and none of them have been as lovely to have around as these guys. An absolute pleasure to have working here, always friendly and polite, answered any questions, gave as much time as was needed and went above and beyond to help with my endless questions and asks! Thank you so much.
FAQs
Ask our teamHow often should a septic tank be emptied in Nottingham?
Empty it at least once a year, or as often as the manufacturer recommends. On the clay south and east of the city a soakaway clears slowly, so keeping solids out matters even more. We can put your septic tank emptying in Nottingham on a yearly schedule so it isn't missed.
Does home insurance cover septic tank replacement in Nottingham?
Often, yes. Many buildings insurance policies cover sudden damage to septic tanks and drains, but not wear and tear. If a collapse or root damage has hit your tank, we check your policy and can help with the claim.
What are the General Binding Rules for septic tanks in Nottingham?
Under the general binding rules, a septic tank must not drain straight into a river, stream or ditch. If yours does, you need to upgrade it: connect to the mains sewer, switch to a drainage field or fit a sewage treatment plant. You may also need a permit near drinking-water sources or protected wildlife sites, and we'll tell you which applies.
Who deals with off-mains drainage problems in Nottingham?
Severn Trent looks after the public sewers across Nottingham. If your home isn't connected, the septic tank or treatment plant is yours to look after. UKDP handles emptying, repairs, surveys and replacements for private systems in the villages around the city.
What are the signs of septic tank failure?
Slow drains, bad smells, gurgling pipes, sewage backing up and boggy ground over the drainage field. Near the Trent the water table runs high, so a wet drainage field after heavy rain may be groundwater rather than a failed tank.
Can I get emergency septic tank repair near me in Nottingham?
Yes. Our Beeston depot in Nottingham is about 3 miles from Nottingham city centre, 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.
