Septic tank installation

This allows our specialists to provide customers with septic system recommendations specific to their property and council area.

Repairs to existing septic systems

Septic tanks, components, and septic trench systems require routine maintenance and prompt repairs to ensure your home's wastewater system works efficiently and effectively every day of the year. With the correct servicing, your septic system should last 20 years or more.

Common issues with household septic systems

• Collapsed pipes
• Blockages due to dirt or debris
• Tree root intrusion clogs
• Solidified sewage blockages
• Clogged trench systems
• Blockages due to foreign items such as wet wipes, sanitary products, cotton buds, coffee grounds
• Bacteria imbalance
• Infrequent pumping out
• Strong odours

Regular septic tank maintenance can avoid most of these issues or catch problems before they cause a major failure.

Healthy Sunshine Coast septic system tips

Keep your septic system operating efficiently:

• Conserve water
• Avoid overloading the system
• Attending to plumbing problems such as dripping taps and leaking toilets promptly
• Don't flush rubbish or wet wipes.
• Use a sink strainer to prevent food scraps from being washed down the sink
• Only use biodegradable or septic-friendly cleaning products to avoid disrupting the bacteria balance in the tank
• Choose a septic-friendly washing powder and spread washing loads over several days to avoid overloading the water treatment process
• Keep the lid sealed to prevent stormwater, insects or vermin from getting in.
• Only use licenced plumbing and drainage specialists for repairs or maintenance
• Keep the disposal or trench area free of large trees and plants, vehicles, and animals.
