Septic Tank Installation
what we do
For properties not connected to the mains sewer, a properly designed and installed septic tank system is crucial for safe and dependable wastewater management. Exjet offers complete septic tank installation services across Devon, Cornwall, and Somerset, working with homeowners, developers, and commercial clients to deliver compliant and efficient drainage solutions. Every installation is planned and executed by trained engineers to ensure adherence to current environmental and building regulations.
Complete Design & Installation Service
Installing septic tanks properly requires careful planning and expertise. Our service handles every stage of the process, from the initial site visit and design to final commissioning. We evaluate the property layout, ground conditions, and anticipated usage to determine the appropriate size and type of system. Once approved, our engineers manage all excavation, installation of the tank and pipework, and testing before commissioning the system. Every installation meets the standards of the Environment Agency and Building Regulations, ensuring long-term performance and compliance.
Choosing the Right Septic System
Different properties and ground conditions require different solutions. We work with a variety of systems, from traditional septic tanks to modern package treatment plants designed to meet stricter discharge standards. During the design process, we help identify the most suitable option based on flow rates, soil percolation results, and available space for a soakaway or drainage field. This ensures your system operates efficiently while complying with environmental requirements.
Compliance & Environmental Responsibility
Correct installation is only part of the process. All systems must comply with current regulations governing discharge and waste management. We ensure that every installation adheres to the General Binding Rules and, where necessary, supports permit applications with the Environment Agency. Our team knows how to position tanks, route outflows, and manage discharges safely, helping to protect local watercourses and the wider environment.
Integration with Waste Management & Maintenance
Following installation, ongoing maintenance is essential for keeping systems operating effectively. Our waste tankering services offer scheduled emptying and upkeep to prevent build-up and ensure efficiency. Regular servicing minimises the risk of blockages, odours, or overflow, extends the system’s lifespan, and ensures compliance with discharge regulations.
Professional Standards & Experience
All installations are carried out by qualified engineers using high-quality materials and equipment appropriate for site conditions. We pride ourselves on delivering a professional and tidy service, minimising disruption whilst ensuring that every aspect of the system is installed safely and securely. Our accreditations, including Constructionline Gold and Trading Standards Approval, reflect the standards we uphold on every project.
