What our customers say
Our legitimate insurance claim was declined by the insurer, however through a completely professional and expertly conducted case, UKDP Solutions were able to overturn their decision and we are delighted with the outcome. Best of all UKDP Solutions did all the hard work.
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.
Really respectful staff, very efficient and caused as little damage as possible. They left the site in excellent state and we could not be more grateful.
FAQs
Ask our teamHow often should a septic tank be emptied in Solihull?
At least once a year, or as often as the manufacturer recommends. On Solihull's clay, an overfull tank pushes solids into the drainage field, and it struggles to recover.
Does home insurance cover septic tank replacement in Solihull?
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 Solihull?
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: connect to the mains sewer, switch to a drainage field, or fit a treatment plant. You may also need a permit near drinking-water sources or protected wildlife sites such as the River Blythe. We'll tell you which applies.
Who deals with off-mains drainage problems in Solihull?
If your home isn't connected to the mains, the septic tank or treatment plant is yours to look after. Severn Trent only maintains the public sewers. UKDP handles emptying, repairs, surveys and replacements for private systems across Solihull and its villages.
What are the signs of septic tank failure?
Slow drains, bad smells, gurgling pipes, sewage backing up and wet, boggy ground over the drainage field. On Solihull's clay, wet ground after heavy rain can be the soil itself, so it's worth a check before assuming the worst.
Can I get emergency septic tank repair near me in Solihull?
Yes. Our Birmingham Business Park depot on Solihull Parkway is about 5 miles from Solihull, 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.
