Septic Tank Emptying Oxfordshire
Regular emptying keeps solids out of your drainage field. On the clay and mudstone around Abingdon, Thame and Faringdon, ground drains slowly, so a clogged field is hard to put right.

What our customers say
We cannot speak highly enough of UKDP Solutions for all their efforts on our behalf. Over a protracted period Rob Brindley worked tirelessly for us and it is thanks to him that there was a successful outcome to our insurance claim. He kept us informed at every stage and we are very grateful for his expertise and guidance. We would highly recommend UKDP.
Job well done! Very happy with the works completed by UKDP, had a new STP fitted. I had lots of questions before works started and they made sure I understood everything and was totally happy before going ahead. Work was completed in a timely manner, slight issue with electrics but this was quickly resolved. Customer service was excellent and I can highly recommend them.
A very professional company. Always return calls and get the job done. Would highly recommend to any customer.
FAQs
Ask our teamHow often should a septic tank be emptied in Oxfordshire?
Empty it at least once a year, or as often as the manufacturer recommends. If you need septic tank emptying in Oxfordshire, book it before winter: on the clay around Abingdon and Thame, a drainage field that takes in solids is slow to recover.
Does home insurance cover septic tank replacement in Oxfordshire?
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 Oxfordshire?
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 Oxfordshire?
Thames Water looks after the public sewers. If your home isn't connected to them, the septic tank or treatment plant is yours to look after. UKDP handles emptying, repairs, surveys and replacements for private systems across Oxfordshire.
What are the signs of septic tank failure?
Slow drains, bad smells, gurgling pipes, sewage backing up and boggy ground over the drainage field. Where groundwater sits near the surface, such as parts of Abingdon and Wallingford, wet ground isn't always a failing tank, so get it checked first.
Can I get emergency septic tank repair near me in Oxfordshire?
Yes. We cover Oxfordshire from our Birmingham depot, 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.
