Keep the whole off-mains system working, not just the tank.
Properties outside the main Haverhill urban area are more likely to rely on septic tanks, package treatment plants and soakaways. Emptying is part of routine maintenance, but slow drainage, smells or wet ground can also point to a problem with the outlet or soakaway rather than the tank itself.

Questions
What people usually ask first.
How often should a septic tank be emptied?
It varies with tank size, household use and system design. Regular desludging prevents solids building up to a level where they can reach the outlet and damage the soakaway.
Does a full septic tank cause slow drains?
It can, but slow drainage can also result from a blocked inlet, outlet problem or failing soakaway. The wider system needs to be considered.
Do you cover villages outside Haverhill?
Yes. The site covers Haverhill and a surrounding radius including local villages in Suffolk and across nearby county borders.
